Re: US troops kill 16-year-old boy for spitting on them
Hopefully if true, appropriate punishment will be meted out.
Back to outrage equivalence meter:
I check in occasionally, but didn’t find a thread on those who were killed for even less than spitting in the face of an armed soldier.
These poor ones were simply breathing (and being shiite). And there are 34,000 other victims of the sectarian death merchants (not U.S. collateral damage)
This is the real and continuing shame of the conflict. Once these perps are eliminated, Iraqis will have a chance to live normally.

Sad for the boy and his family.
When the murderous “insurgents” are marginalized locally and condemned internationally, then the bulk of suffering in Iraq will greatly diminish. Then there will be fewer and fewer U.S. soldiers there to be spat upon.
