You say this in the context of discussing how 9 kids were killed out on the open collecting firewood. Same thing with the killed journalists gunned down. How you can watch some of the footage and then say, "Well, the family says one thing and the military says another" and make it seem like a "who knows?" question is absurd. "Hey, the government says 9/11 was bad. OBL says it was good. So, who knows?"

Really?

It is a straight-up no-win situation. The only way to not lose as much is to get out as fast as possible.
