You know, I can actually sympathize with the National Guard here. On the one hand, yeah, maybe they are trying to get the troops accustomed to seeing us as the bad guys.

But, on the other hand, when they run a simulation like this, somebody has to be the bad guy, and it really doesn't matter who. And I'd be willing to bet if they made the bad guys a group of reptilian shape-shifting extraterrestrials from the Perseids, somebody would complain. I wonder, are we being a little too sensitive?

Onward and upward,
