These a$$holes are worthless.

[Gringo1]

The same troops reportedly never mutiny on paydays.

How could an Iraqi fight an Iraqi like this?

So American blood is expected to pick up the entire tab for Iraqi freedom??

Let's plug in ANY Iraqi "government," get the hell out, and let them swim in their own blood.

"I do not believe everything I see on the Internet, or the news."

These ARE Muslims.

This account isn't exactly shocking, is it?

[Doc On The Bay]

DISENFRANCHISE THEM.

No Pay; never any further Government Job; No "Federal Benefits," ; NO Possibility of furthur Governmental Employment,; Constant Surveillance,; Permanent Status as Faithless Cowards,; Loss of ALL "Privileges of Iraqi Citizenship,"; Total Loss of ALL "Status" in Iraqi Society for "Cowardice."

Pretty much the Fate of an American "Deserter."

Now, now, calm down. Haven't you heard the spokesman for central command say that we must win the hearts and minds of the Iraqis? We can't just be too aggressive.

THEN WE WILL DIE YOU MORON

WAKE UP AMERICA

WE ARE NOT FIGHTING HEARTS & MINDS

It is a fair argument. To Take up arms against your own countrymen I mean. Remember how many here on this forum was disgusted over Waco when army tanks attacked US Civilians. We need to level Faluja, get the attention of the Iraqui people. Only 75 sniper days left before we hand it back over to them.

"Haven't you heard the spokesman for central command say that we must win the hearts and minds of the Iraqis?"

By now the Central Command recognizes it's time for 'Plan B' :

The "hearts and minds of the Iraqis" can actually only be "won" through the liberal use of MOABs and mercilessly utilized overwhelming force.

"It is a fair argument. To Take up arms against your own countrymen I mean. Remember how many here on this forum was disgusted over Waco when army tanks attacked US Civilians."

Naah, not a very good argument.

Koresh's Waco's inhabitants weren't exactly analogious to Saddam's henchmen, were they?

"We need to level Faluja, get the attention of the Iraqui people."

On this we agree.

[katz]

I hope so. This killing of our troops is heart breaking. I support the war but I cannot stand one death. If the troops were not tied down, then the truth of war would not feel so bad.

[F16Fighter]

"I support the war but I cannot stand one death. If the troops were not tied down, then the truth of war would not feel so bad."

That's what's staggering...

It's gotta be a no-holds-barred, go-for-the-throat proposition for our guys, otherwise how can we be expected to fully support this war?

[katz]

Right. Give our military generals the power to win. Do not let CNN and Aljezera report from the war zone. Let our troops do their job and keep the cameras away. The cameras can come in when it is over. The news couldn't be any worse after than it is now. No more PC news.
