I hear say there’s a war in progress in Iraq.
- This morning I read part of a Reuters story at Yahoo! News:
- An Iraqi Red Crescent doctor said on Saturday more than 50 bodies had been found in the rubble of a town near the Syrian border which U.S.-led troops swept through this week in an anti-insurgent offensive.
The headline for the story?
Bodies found after US Iraq offensive
What did Reuters expect would result from battle?
Having said that, I append the following.
Each of those deaths means a soul stood before his Maker to give account. I expect an extremely high percentage of those killed left this world headed for eternal torment.
Many of those deaths mean grief, agony, and anguish for someone here.
But I doubt those previous two paragraphs were what made the story newsworthy to Reuters.
But what about Mark Roth? Why should he care about Reuters’ motivation and agenda? Does he care about the dead, the dying, and the living any more/better than does Reuters?
