To start with, I hate George Bush. However, I can understand this message. Do you all remember the reaction of many other countries when 9/11 was broadcast ? They threw parties in the streets, cheering and burning flags. Broadcasting the arrival of american dead would probably just cause the same reaction in many regions. and FYI, I’m canadian not american, but I still feel it is absolutely horrible for anyones death to be a celebration. So long as they are remembered by one, they are honored forever.
