K-Lo Swipes

What a desperate little jibe. It is perfectly obvious from the post in question that I am not blaming the Brits for being captured by Iran. I blame Iran. It is also perfectly obvious that this blog has long exposed and decried the religious dictatorship in Iran. My point is that if the British soldiers are treated inhumanely in captivity, the United States no longer has any high ground morally to complain. This president, by authorizing torture, detaining innocents for years, outsourcing the torture of others to vicious regimes, and lying about all of it has made the lives of all American and allied servicemembers that much more dangerous. K-Lo knows that. Hence the swipe. It distracts from the truth.
