Why Isn't the NRA Mad that Bush is Seizing Iraqi Weapons?

A BUZZFLASH READER COMMENTARY
by Steve Wolfson

"Allies to Begin Seizing Weapons From Most Iraqis"

We need to start a campaign to find out why the NRA isn't jumping up and down about the Americans taking automatic and heavy weapons away from the Iraqis. There are two points here:

1) They are confiscating AK47s and rocket-propelled grenade launchers. If they are taking those away, surely the next step is that they will be taking away hand guns and steak knives. And then, see point #2, they will then be turning around and doing the same to we Americans.

2) It is the American government that is doing this to Iraqis. If they can do it to Iraqis, they can also turn around and do it to we Americans.

Since Iraq is becoming an American colony, shouldn't Iraqis have the same rights that Americans do, including the right to bear arms? And since the NRA wants Americans to be able to own AK47s, why shouldn't Iraqis have the same right?

Shouldn't we be pointing out this hypocrisy? Only AMERICANS have the right to bear arms? Why? Because we are the most moral and just country on earth, and because Jesus wants us armed to the teeth?
