"That the Iraqi Government is considering a political deal granting amnesty to insurgents who have attacked or killed American service members is not just shocking - the idea of amnesty for insurgents is an outrage"

This quote by Ike Skelton expresses his strong disapproval of the Iraqi Government's factor to consider of a political offer giving amnesty to insurgents who have assaulted or killed American service members. He thinks that this idea of amnesty for insurgents is an outrage and is surprised that the Iraqi Government is even considering it. He believes that those who have actually attacked or eliminated American service members should not be granted amnesty and must be held accountable for their actions. He thinks that this would be a serious injustice to the American service members and their households who have suffered due to the actions of these insurgents. He believes that the Iraqi Government needs to not be thinking about such an offer and that it ought to be strongly opposed.
