Definitely Misplaced Outrage

The post immediately below is titled "Somewhat Misplaced Outrage." The outrage expressed in this article is definitely misplaced.

The article informs us that Cardinal Renato Martino is upset at the video footage of Saddam in the hands of the military.  A couple of Martino’s comments,

""I felt pity to see this man destroyed, (the military) looking at his teeth as if he were a cow. They could have spared us these pictures,”...

“Seeing him like this, a man in his tragedy, despite all the heavy blame he bears, I had a sense of compassion for him,..."

I think these type of comments from political leaders and church leaders are nothing more than expressions of fear.  Fear of the possibility of their time in front of the cameras for being supporters, and wielders, of tyranny themselves.
