I remember the righteous outrage on the part of people in the U.S. when the bodies of the pilots of a downed helicopter were dragged through the streets of Somalia. Somebody tell me in what way we're any different? Only insofar as the street through which the U.S. drags its bodies is the global media. A severed head on a pole in the ghost city. More new ghosts for the hard city of Mosul and the nation of Iraq.
