New York City joins Operation Yellow Elephant

Letter to the Editor of the New York Post.

HOW TO WIN IN IRAQ WITH A NEW SET OF RULES

-

February 1, 2007 -- Karbala was waiting to happen ever since our government ignored the Geneva Conventions ("Atrocity in Karbala," Editorial, Jan. 27).

Place the responsibility for this outrage squarely where it belongs - on U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales, who called the conventions quaint. Or place it on those who kept their mouths shut while President Bush drew lines in the sand, daring to be stopped, or on the rubber-stamping Republican-controlled Congress that was voted out in the last election.

Where is your outrage over the fact that our troops don't have the items they need to protect themselves?

Where is your outrage over the healthy young Republicans who choose to support the troops by staying home?
