I'm sorry Prasad, I never said I identify with SPC. England: In fact, I
condemn her actions as strongly as possible. I do think it is shameful for
users to refer to US soldiers with disrespect: I also feel it's shameful for
people to refer to ANY soldiers with disrespect. I believe the Bushido code,
the Way of the Warrior is alive and well amongst soldiers. As for your side
note, you're entitled to your beliefs.

You find the username Abu Hamza offensive, tomorrow if someone adopts
the pseudonym Lynddie England, then what will your reaction be? Just
like some Muslims support Hamza, there are Americans (I have met these
people on the internet) who condone what England did to POWs in Abu
Ghraib. If a situation arises where a user identifies with a sadist
like Lyndie, will the Community react in such a strong manner.
Especially you Mr. Rosenthal-I have noticed that you have implied on a
certain occassion that it was "freakin shameful" for users to refer
to U.S soldiers with disrespect. On a side-note let me make it clear
to you that I do NOT respect American soldiers and personally think of
them as a band of glorified mercenaries and you do not have any
authority whatsoever to refer to my opinion as "shamegul". Perhaps you
are accustomed to violating the human-rights of Iraqi POWs, but you
cannot do the same to me especially since I am not a U.S citizen and
hence owe no loyalty to the American military.
