i still don't get everybodies outrage. Sure, it's kind of tactless, but really...what harm is it doing? So they're happy that they've killed someone and they're taking "tourist" photo's. No problem. Let them do it.

Ummmmm, okay...you can think that way. Most people think this is wrong though, and you don't...so in your mind, does that make the rest of us crazy?

You know what? I felt exactly the same thing. It really brought home the horrors of war to me, when they said joyfully "we've got saddams two sons". I sat there for a moment looking at the television in shock, sat back, and wondered to myself whether I should be happy or sad - instead I just asked myself what the world has really come to for something like this to end up happening.
When I expressed these feelings to people, they just looked confused and like they had no idea what I was talking about - it didn't seem to occur to them that Saddam is now experiencing the trauma of losing his children, and that Saddam, and his two sons were human beings.
It was almost like in their blank stares they were saying "what? But the news says that they're horrible monsters... not humans".

I feel the exact same way. I was shocked when my Christian friends were rejoicing in death. They reacted the same way your friends did when I told them what I thought...with blank stares. "But, they're the bad guys."
