Racist SOF?

Thanks to Phoebus for directing us to this news story on FGNOnline, where someone had too much time on their hands and started looking for racist subtext in Raven's Soldier of Fortune. Apparently, in the Iraqi missions you don't get punished for killing civilians, unlike in the New York subway mission. An amusing quote from someone at the Jordon Ambassy in London, who is head of the Iraqi Interest Section

"It shows the mentality of the American gung-ho, the cowboy, that he's always winning. It's reminiscent of the old movies, with the white guy John Wayne always beating the black guys, who are always hoodlums and thieves."
