Your blathering made no sense, whatsoever. Such ultra-patriotic jingoistic hyperbole, well, is insane.

First, and you of all people should know this all too well, war has no laws... period. Such "laws" are always written by the victor.

Second, Amerikan stormtroopers dressed in desert Nazi fatigues, raising the Amerikan flag, is, both; an insult to citizens of a sovereign country, and a piss poor way to show you are "liberating" them.

If I understand such things correctly, I believe the ignorant jounalists' point, was/is, its the image stupid. It's about perception.

Maybe you need further explanation; the reason such an image was pointed out... to people like you, who just don't seem to get it, is such an image makes Amerikans look like conquerors, not liberators.

Perception drives reaction, reaction drives cause, cause drives action.
