Jill Carroll's kidnappers are rapidly diminishing the tiny reservoir of sympathy for the Iraqi resistance movement, which still exists in this world. As a combat veteran of the Vietnam War, who has been humbled by his inability to prevent "collateral damage" to innocents, when such restraint might cause death or injury to his advisory team, I have spoken against the current war in Iraq and Afghanistan, which has brought almost unimaginable pain to the Iraqui people, since before its beginning, and I have helped to found VeteransAgainstTorture, because I fervently believe in the justice of that cause.
My profound sympathy for the plight of the Iraqui people does not extend to the vile kidnappers of this innocent girl. My message to them: "Keep it up, and you will count the destruction of our antiwar movement among your accomplishments.
Even God will not forgive you, if you do!
