Recruited To Die

It amazing how little effect the facts have on those inoculated with hate. The emotion eclipses all reason and social norms. It is injected into children like polio vaccine of years gone by. So once injected children become immune to reason and when they become adults, if they do before they are smeared all over a shopping mall, all they need is a small booster shoot and off they go chasing their 72 virgins. What a waste. But, the bigger blindness are those like SOS Rice who say, "No mother would ever send there child off to commit sure death." Think again Condi!
