An interesting question

Posted by David Hardy · 16 March 2012 09:48 AM

After President Obama apologized to Afghanistan for a soldier who cracked and killed 16 Afghanis, shouldn't he apologize to Mexico for the 300 deaths caused by Fast and Furious?

The Soldier in Afghanistan wasn't operating under orders: it wasn't a planned event; it was, in effect, an accident...an apology makes sense there.

Fast and Furious was planned, was executed to plan and, with the exception of their getting caught in the act, did exactly what they wanted it to: put American guns at Mexican crime scenes as a propaganda tool in support of their anti-gun agenda.

What's to apologize for?

The only thing they're sorry about is getting caught. As far as I'm concerned, an apology devoid of actual remorse is worse than no apology at all.

What does one mean, "After"? It's a bit too late to apologize.

After reading Michael Yon's 16 March Dispatch (hat tip to Instapundit), I find myself wondering: Why hasn't Karzai apologized for the 200-odd Coalition casualties attributable to 'insider attacks' perpetrated by Afghan Soldiers?

Odds on anyone in the press room asking the President about it?
