But, I have to vent!

This is by FAR the biggest heap of steaming dung fucking non-journalism propaganda I've ever seen.
I can't believe I'm actually seeing it! If what some philosophers claim is true and all of reality
is some sort of manifestation of my consciousness... I'm really really really sorry, people. x(

What defines a killing in Iraq as sectarian?

By Karen DeYoung
Washington Post

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20966123/

On Sept. 1, the bullet-riddled bodies of four Iraqi men were found on a Baghdad street. Two days later, a single dead man, with one bullet in his head, was found on a different street. According to the U.S. military in Iraq, the solitary man was a victim of sectarian violence. The first four were not.

Such determinations are the building blocks for what the Bush administration has declared a downward trend in sectarian deaths and a sign that its war strategy is working. They are made by a specialized team of soldiers who spend their nights at computer terminals, sifting through data on the day's civilian victims for clues to the motivations of killers.

But, THE OTHER FOUR ARE STILL DEAD and THEY MIGHT NOT BE IF BUSH HADN'T STARTED FUCKING AROUND IN IRAQ.

I can't stand it... ;(
