Did He Really Say That?

"One thing we've stressed with them is the need for precision," a senior U.S. military official said of the raids. "You can't just roll people up. It alienates them."

"Precision", like as in the 100,000 civilians killed in the first eighteen months of war, mostly women and children, mostly killed by American bombs and guns? "Can't just roll people up", like as in the thousands of "suspected insurgents" sitting in Iraqi jails?

Okay, thanks for the tip.
