Re: Bill O’Reilly’s Aug. 26 commentary, “A final Iraq solution requires some course-altering�:

Bill O’Reilly has established a new low for himself in trying to equate the U.S. invasion of Iraq to the American Revolution. Only a truly twisted mind could conclude that the American colonists' decision to free themselves from British rule is the same thing as the United States deciding for the people of Iraq that they should be liberated from Saddam Hussein's rule — and, for many, liberated from their heads and limbs by American bombs.


Based on Mr. O’Reilly’s reasoning, the American Revolution would have been just as noble if it had involved France invading the colonies, killing thousands of Americans and securing access to American resources, all while claiming to be liberating the colonies from the rule of King George. If only the French had done that, perhaps Mr. O'Reilly would think they're noble, too.
