1,2,3 WHAT ARE WE FIGHTING FOR?
In keeping with yesterday's theme, what do Rosie O'Donnell and jihadists have in common? They both dress their kids up like insurgents.
Quiz: Which one is Rosie's kid and which one is the Palestinian?
Would you be able to tell if the skin tones were the same?
The Palestinians mean it when they dress their kids up like this. I have no idea what Rosie was thinking. Supposedly she's anti-war, but the fact she dressed her kid up with bullets suggests that maybe there is something she'd be willing to let her kids fight for. Obviously it's not the United States, though.

Posted by Sarah at June 29, 2007 08:34 AM | TrackBackSeveral years ago, I saw a picture of some Spanish female protestors wearing almost no clothes except for (presumably) fake suicide belts and carrying signs that said "No War!" And I was reminded of Leonard Cohen's lines:
**
I know that you have suffered, lad
But suffer this awhile:
Whatever makes a soldier sad
Will make a killer smile
**
I don't know precisely what Cohen had in mind when he wrote these lines, which are not recent. But there are a large number of people who object to the rational and measured use of force by legitimate states ("soldiers") while approving or at least justifying the use of violence by terrorists ("killers").
I swear everytime I see the picture of Rosi's kid, I keep thinking its a live version of one of the puppets from the TEAM AMERICA movie!

I'm anti-gun, except when it comes to protecting ME!!!!
If I were her kid, I'd be a little worried... "mommy wants me to blow myself up to show the world we're anti-war"... Heh.

Not a big deal to me. My mom is anti-war but she didn't stop me from playing war with toy guns, sticks brandished as bows, clubs and swords, toy soldiers, drawing battles, etc..
