I remember how the iconic picture of a woman being publicly shot by the T-party (for murdering her husband) was used to galvanize support for the wider war instead of just going after AQ and then getting out of there.

I was also dismayed to hear an American general bragging in his "war progress" speach in This Is What Winning Looks Like (which is a quote from his speech) about "schools for girls".

Sometimes TheImp is actually onto things (but he's still not exactly right).
