CPT Blames US for Its Own Stupidity

Found today on the Christian Peacemaker Teams website this announcement:

We are angry because what has happened to our teammates is the result of the actions of the U.S. and U.K. governments due to the illegal attack on Iraq and the continuing occupation and oppression of its people. Christian Peacemaker Teams (CPT) has worked for the rights of Iraqi prisoners who have been illegally detained and abused by the U.S. government. We were the first people to publicly denounce the torture of Iraqi people at the hands of U.S. forces, long before the western media admitted what was happening at Abu Ghraib. We are some of the few internationals left in Iraq who are telling the truth about what is happening to the Iraqi people We hope that we can continue to do this work and we pray for the speedy release of our beloved teammates.

I do agree that injustice is injustice, regardless of who it is perpetrated by. It just seems to me that it would be better to try and refine the approach of liberators rather than villify the one side that is consistently trying to fight evil.

Now that might be an approach that should interest a Christian.
