What’s That Smell?

Wednesday, November 16th, 2005

“Ooh, what’s that smell? The smell of death surrounds you.” -Lynard Skynard

A joint statement by the American Embassy and the United States military command called the situation “totally unacceptable” and said American officials “agree with Iraq’s leaders that mistreatment of detainees will not be tolerated.”

Can you smell the hypocrasy here? Who taught the Iraqi Security Forces? The same people who have blood on their hands. If it is “totally unacceptable” over there, so it is over here, too. As for the ousting of Saddam Hussein, I’ll quote another well-known song:

“Here comes the new boss, same as the old boss…” -The Who
