O’Reilly, living down to expectations:

OREILLY: U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan are risking their lives to protect the Afghan people from the Taliban and al Qaeda. But President Karzai does not seem to get that. Once again, he has condemned American forces after a raid killed some civilians.

In that raid, a top Taliban commander and some of his cronies were also killed, but apparently, Karzai doesn’t understand that in war, collateral damage is constantly present. U.S. military is investigating the situation, but Check believes Karzai is making a political grandstand play, and it is insulting. Without us, his head is on a stick.

I love how the likes of O’Reilly sort of wave off the idea of civilian casualties. Not a big deal! Because our intentions are pure! Our heart’s in the right place!

I’m thinking when your kid’s heart is over there - and his head here, his arm here, and his leg across the street - you’re unlikely to see your “liberators” in such magnanimous terms.
