Some Salt For Your Wounds?
Well, we knew it was coming, I suppose:
AccursedInvadersVsUngratefulBastards

Hundreds of enraged Afghans chanting "death to Canada" blocked a highway Wednesday following a raid by foreign troops that left two religious leaders dead.

Gawd. And we can't even say, "But it wasn't us! It was the other foreign troops!" Or we could, but, I guess it isn't done. Nope. We'll just have to suck it up, carry on up the mountain pass, deliver them from evil.
Or deliver them to paradise, whatever the case may be. I notice the two dead are described as "religious leaders", at least.
But I won't even argue about the Afghanistan mission with its supporters anymore. The other side always gets to act all Jesus-like with this, "Forgive them, they know not what they do", crap when we've lost soldiers to roadside bombs planted by whoever (I mean, they can't ALL be Taliban - can they? Or who's gonna take over when all the Taliban are dead?) and then all Betty Crocker-like with this, "You can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs" crap when Afghan civilians are killed in the fighting, cross-fire, house to house searches.
