[...] In the US, last week, the Joint Chiefs of Staff (an arm of the state, technically) wrote an angry letter to the Washington Post to protest the publication of this cartoon. Michele Malkin might declare that: “In civilized societies, if you are offended by a cartoon, you do not burn flags, take up guns and raid buildings, chant death to your opponents, or threaten suicide bombings. You write a letter to the editor.” But plenty of other pajamahadeen are actively seeking the sacking of the WaPo’s cartoonist because they didn’t like what he had to say. It would be a little ironic if they got their wish – or even an apology – in the present circumstances. [...]

BuzzK,

This is your one and only warning. You are a guest on my site. Act like an adult or win the honor of being the first one to be kicked out of here.

This is my site where I exercise my 1st Amendment Right to speak my mind. So please, take your liberal fascist act someplace else. We still have the right to speak in this country.

One more infraction and out you go.

BTW, the HUMVEES are not ‘unarmored’ and are much better than the jeeps of Nam. Your not impressing me with your first impression here.

“Put pressure on the Post to fire Toles and make sure all of you donate heavily to causes that support our injured veterans and the families who lost loved ones. ”

How about putting pressure on the assclowns who lied us into the Iraq war, sent our kids there with unarmored Humvees and insufficient body armor, and had no plan for what to do after the war?

Toles’ cartoon was right on, and it’s been circulated widely via email among my (‘Nam) generation, including some guys who re-upped and are serving over there right now. You have no effing idea the depth of anger among senior soldiers about this war, how it’s been mismanaged, and what it’s cost us. So shut the eff up!

[...] We have to be careful what signals we send that could recruit moderates into the radical’s camp. I am not sure what the answer is. The cartoons do not seem that offensive, but then again we here in the West have become numb to the idiocy of political cartoonists. Just yesterday Michelle and myself and others castigated the Washington Post for a truly sick cartoon. Here we are today on the other side defending something that hit some the same way as that Toles cartoon hit us. [...]

The JCoS’s letter is a thing of beauty, if there can be a silver lining in this.
