The Ambiguity of Our Time

Our troops are doing monstrous things in Iraq and they’re being undercompensated for it.

Complain about the poor compensation and you can be marked as a supporter of the war.

Complain about the atrocities and you can be marked as anti-troops.

Complain about both and you feel the stress of contradiction.

Complain about neither and you must be a Republican.
