I am curious to see the video because I have been baffled as to how American Soldiers managed to get captured when they are in an armored HMMWV that should have a machine gun mounted on it and, by published accounts, they were taken alive. Either some sloppy reporting, some unusually skilled terrorists, or something is not being told.
Good thing they didn't scare them with dogs...
AND OUR CHICKENSHIT "GENERALS" ARE WORRIED ABOUT CIVILIAN CASUALITIES AT A TALIBAN FUNERAL! When are we going to take the damned gloves off in this war?
Kill every jihadi in gitmo - bury them in pig shite..
*Tears*
Prayers for the families.
Hdqrs. Military Division of the Mississippi, In the field, Rome, Ga., October 29, 1864.
Brigadier-General Watkins, Calhoun, Ga.:
Cannot you send over about Fairmount and Adairsville, burn about ten or twelve houses of known secessionists, kill a few at random, and let them know it will be repeated every time a train is fired on from Reseca to Kingston?
W. T. Sherman,
Major-General Commanding
Maybe it was not gentlemanly fighting, but General Sherman meant that soldiers of the US Army were not going to be fired upon by guerrillas, freedom fighters, insurgents or whatever they called themselves. The soldiers in the field need a Sherman-like concern for their welfare with no concern about the tears of the boo hoo brigade of the left. They'd find something else to cry about anyway.
"Where was the Geneva Convention for them???"
Good question!
I add, WHERE ARE THE HUMAN RIGHTS PEOPLE ON THIS?
THE ACLU? The over the top, self righteous political representative of ours that think WE TORTURE the ENEMY?
WELL, WHERE ARE THEY?
THOSE *** HYPOCRITES!
THIS pisses me off to NO END!
Terror group posts footage of bodies
http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/news/special_packages/iraq/15593022.htm
"It was impossible to identify the bodies, but the footage was believed to be of Pfc. Kristian Menchaca, 23, and Pfc. Thomas Tucker, 25, who went missing after being attacked by insurgents on June 16 at a checkpoint south of Baghdad. Their remains were found three days later, and the U.S. military said they had been mutilated.
The video showed masked men dragging the corpses, first by hand, then behind a truck, beheading one of them and then setting them on fire. Below the graphic footage is a subtitle: "The two soldiers belong to the same brigade of the soldier who raped our sister in Mahmoudiya."

It's a good thing Congress is passing all that terrorist protection legislature to make sure we treat them with kindness. Just think what the terrorist would have done to our soldiers if we didn't extend Geneva convention rights to terrorists. (/bitter sarcasm)
The Geneva Convention only applies to the USA.
This is the question everyone should be asking. This is the question that I hope voters will be asking this year, and in 2008. Anyone who answers it wrong should be voted out.
The thing is, the Geneva conventions should never have applied to the kind of fighters like the terrorists. Never. To apply them is just plain stupid--and suicidal for us.
Where's the UN and media whining about due process and civil rights?
Make no mistake: this war is a just one.
Someone sent me an email sometime ago with the pictures of the murdered soldiers. One was face down and pretty bloody. The other had been beheaded and the terrorist was holding his head up and his body was face up and his chest was cut open, you could see the ribs, a leg was missing..it was beyond awful. I would think the faces could have been idenitfied. I don't have the link anymore..it was just sickening.
Then today we hear the successor to AlZaqawri (sp) shot execution style a Turkish man who had been captured...it was on FOXNews.
What these terrorists don't realize is that the Allah they worship is Satan in Allah's robes...
** Warning, this is gruesome **
If you look around at the web news on the war today and start reading the stories, they are all recycled. Look at the dates. The bombings and losses we suffered are from days and weeks ago. Geez, we've even seen a recycled dead-Bin Laden today. This looks like a spiteful and desperate attempt to gain publicity and stir up their cause.
May God forgive them for what they did to these great American soldiers because I never will. And as for McCain, Warren, et al, I will never forgive them either for their recent actions.
