Tell big media: ‘Stop bashing America and our soldiers’

Convenient morality at its best :)

The 'Soviet Russia Officials' could never understand why dissidents always focused on their wrong doing instead of the easily identifiable wrong doings of the governments they where 'helping'. It not that complicated your responsible for what you do.

It is much more important to know about the wrong doings of your government. Especially in a democratic system where we are collectively responsible.

Telling the media to ignore our crimes and focus on the crimes of others is the very definition of convenient morality.
Notice the same people (amnesty international etc), who where against the US support of Saddam are the same people against the US acts of aggression. It is convenient morality that condemns Saddam’s acts while simultaneously aligning themselves with the government regardless of how it acts. If they claim to be against Saddam the whole time I look forward to their alignment with the organizations such as amnesty international that criticize our current alignment with others that participate in these types of atrocities.
