The gist of my other answer:

Phelps is very right to be against American imperialism. Probably the only thing he is right about.

He should have the balls to protest in the face of the DoD and Congress that approve ever moar wars. Or in the face of entities like Blackwater who distort public discourse and the American policy and end up profiting from the deaths of Murrikens and Sand Niggers alike.

Of course, he doesn't have the balls to do that, as fits such a homophobe.

Then he protests at funerals.

American soldiers (mostly like soldiers no matter their nationality) are not saints or angels. American soldiers have committed questionable acts and downright crimes in their stay in Iraq and Afghanistan. But still the REAL culprits are the civilian guys in Washington who deployed them in thaters they never should have.

It looked bad when the warriors of Afghanistan went into Rolling Stone to call the civilians on their shite. But they were right. The civilians have been at best moronic, at worst murderous. Of both American and Brownie lives. Bush and Obama alike.

UPDATE: Today Obama called Bush "a fellow patriot". Hurray for Hope and Change!
