#1 Militiamen grilled bodies on a spit and boiled two girls alive as their mother watched, U.N. peacekeepers charged Wednesday, adding cannibalism to a list of atrocities allegedly carried out by one of the tribal groups fighting in northeast Congo.

If its possible to go lower than this, I don't want to know about it.

#3 Now, now, now. We have to respect their cultural differences. It's not like they're fundamentalist Christians or Republicans or something really bad.

[sigh] I don't really see what can be done about this. Sure, we can go in and kill some of them, but unless we stay, new ones will show up and do the same thing.

I suppose we could go in there permanently, but our military is kind of busy right now (and I hope will become more so soon). Simply occupying the country wouldn't be adequate, anyway. We'd have to change their culture, perhaps convert them to Christianity, probably at gunpoint. I can imagine what the radical left would think of that. It would take at least a generation, probably 2 or 3, to civilize that place. That's a real long-term commitment, and I can't see our populace supporting that for that long.

Needless to say, the UN would be of no help. Even with their ~~child-rapists~~ peacekeepers, they have no support for a mission of actually forcibly changing a culture.

#4 Sorry, I've got no use for and no tolerance of cannibals. Call me old-fashioned.

#5 The new International Court of inJustice in The Hague, Netherlands, said this week that its first cases will deal with war crimes committed in eastern Congo.

Lip service to procecuting cannibals...

Sexual arousal about procecuting US Soldiers who gave some Foreign Terrorists in Iraq a "Victoria's Secret Hat" in prison...

Right.

#7 And you have the word of a UN official on that.

As he licked the grease from his fingers...

#9 Gee, another strongly worded statement. I bet Mr "Cheapskate" Egeland issued that while he was on his way to a five-star restaurant.

The UN, of course, couldn't protect her.

No, Dan, the Useless Numbnuts wouldn't protect her.
