...and somewhere in all that is a man already responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths, saying to his mates: "Please, don't start making young Muslims feel like they shouldn't go dying in a war for America's control of world oil, that'll cause us no end of recruitment difficulties." This makes me so very angry. He's actually still using 9/11 to pull at heartstrings in favour of this war, and the only connection ever made between 9/11 and Iraq is a blatantly contrived idea of a worldwide Islamic conspiracy against America, and now he's actually trying to look like the good guy by using that to promote his Equal Opportunities Campaign, because Muslim kids can die just as pointlessly as Christian ones in the American Army. The irony makes me want to spit. No, I don't give him any kudos for not being a racist, he's still a murderous scumbag.
