PC is passe' MC is the new thing

MC stands for moraly correct. It is new kind of blindness.

I was commenting ove at the Command Post about this. Here is what I had to say:

Combatants dressed as civilians playing possum have killed Marines in the recent fighting.

Want to stay alive in a battle area?

Surrender.

Want to die? Play dead.

Those in the room who surrendered at once lived. Those who did not died.

Seems fair enough to me.

Surrender or die. Simple rule. Easy to follow. In fact even if the fighters were protected by Geneva - which they are not because they are not signatories and not in uniform and not under a central command authority and fighting on protected ground - that is the rule on the battlefield.

Perhaps the terrorists need to give their fighters classes in the Geneva Conventions before allowing them to fight. I know our soldiers are given instruction.

Islam means surrender.

Perhaps the trouble is the “insurgents” were not following their own religion.

Say, did I mention that torture and behedding of captives is a violation of the Geneva conventions?

Funny thing is you never hear any complaints from the morally correct about such behavior.

Why is that?
