Hit by an IED, apparently. Apparently, the Hajis want to hold on to Haditha by any means necessary and are contesting it heavily. That's why the big casualty count. Something's there, and they don't want us around. Be Seeing You,

Roadside bomb in western Iraq.
I feel sick.
Like a punch in the gut.
In Haditha. Also a civilian interpreter.
Just heard it..My heart is heavy..Prayers for all who mourn..Death to those who plant bombs.
And a gentle smile crosses the lips of the American left this morning ...
Just heartbreaking...my prayers go out to their families.
According to McCord, this is in addition to the seven Marines who have died in the last two day in the same area.
Dick Durbin and the RATS cheer(in private).......
Rest in peace, brave Leathernecks, and may God comfort your families and colleagues.
Amen
We've got to quit pussyfooting with what is coming across that western border.
I wasn't posting when I heard the news yesterday..It is such a loss..

They gave all that our country could ask of them, and their service honors us all. Rest in peace.
These good men did not die in vain, but it's a sad thing that we've had to lose more of our noble heroes.
We can't even secure our Southern border ...
Damn, damn, damn...
God bless these American heroes.
Prayers to them.
Well, in this case I'm not really talking about a border. I'm talking about Damascus.
