Now that being abused is a virtue, who isn’t scrambling to work out the perfect martyr complex?
The NYT and their UK Troskyite fantasists paesanos were over the moon, but it seems that their simply taking something as fact doesn’t make it one. They might have to stop rubbing their little hands after all these years of lectureing, panel-talking, screaming, and such over stupid reservists abusing what were, in the main, a bunch of prisoners convicted of rape. What the Guardian, Independent, and NY Times Opinion writers would normally suggest be the handling of convicted rapists would otherwise not be deemed worthy of presentation.
The Abu Ghraib gnome appears to be an object of status that 5 people are fighting over. That’s right – the NYT which ran the Abu Ghraib story for 83 straight days without a single new piece of information, has to look into just WHO it was they made a folk-victim out of.
Remerci a Georges for the links, we also find that Salon.com does a bit of tip-toeing around the NYT’s ‘self-confidence’ itself in the questions it posed to the Times. Alas, little remorse was detected.
