IMO, you make some wild claims to which I cannot find any reference. I doubt some tank grunts would be carrying a flag from the Pentagon, which probably is held to have some symbolic value. Pentagon Flag So, now what flag are you talking about?
Now, IMO, it is not worth wasting any more breath(key strokes) on as I am far more concerned about the hundreds of wounded Iraqi civilians who are in desparate need of adequate medical care.
Quote:The flag was only taken down, when the Iraqi (the few who were there) protested against the US flag.Interesting twist on reality. I watched the entire event on live TV, and you can clearly see the guy right below Cpl. Chin ordering him to take it down. I can believe that some Iraqi's may have been offended, but as I said above it doesn't appear according to my scans of the Arab press to have been any more offensive to the Arab Street than having the infidel occupying an Arab nation.
Now, IMO, it is not worth wasting any more breath(key strokes) on as I am far more concerned about the hundreds of wounded Iraqi civilians who are in desparate need of adequate medical care.
