Hmmmm? Excuse me ... how are they planning to do this since they DON'T HAVE ANY WMD's ...??

Get real ... they people only know how to rule by threats. That's how they operate - by intimidation!!

[Mo1]

Oh I don't care who gets him first .. just as long as they get him

[Valin]

I would not wish to fight the United States — either militarily, politically, or culturally. For every threat, our history teaches us that Americans offer not just a rejoinder, but the specter of a devastating answer of a magnitude almost inconceivable to those now chanting and threatening in the streets of the Middle East. Do they have any idea of what sort of dangerous people we really are? Do they understand the history of the names of those ships now off their coasts, like the USS Peleliu or Enterprise, or the pedigree of the 82nd or 101st Airborne?

When it starts, Arabs are going to be shot dead whenever they appear in public.

No. But they will......

[speekinout]

Uh-huh. The only countries that don't seem to be paying attention are Germany and France. A few suicide bombers there might get their attention.

And I doubt that we are admitting Arab youths to the US without very good reason.

[Courier]

Impossible

1000 suicide bombers times 72 virgins.

Where are they going to find 72,000 virgins?

[Aaron0617]

1000 youths with bombs to be used worldwide hardly sounds scarry.

Not the point. Its not supposed to scare us, just further enrage the peace activists and the Germanys/Frances of the world.

If big bad Bush invades Iraq 1000 children will automatically die.

[ladyinred]

I think we all expected this to begin with. Seems to me any Iraqui youths in this nation should perhaps be detained when this starts. That will not happen of course because of the PC crowd.

[PoisedWoman]

Sure blows a hole in the DemonRats' theory that Saddam and terrorism are two distinct issues.

I'm really fed up with polls that ask which is more important to deal with, Iraq or terrorism. As if there's any difference.

[squibs]

They're still in the stone age.

[Arpege92]

You would never see Saddam strapping a bomb to himself to kill American's. What a coward....using children but I guess today's Iraqi children are tomorrows terrorists!!!!

[ffusco]

I just became an enemy non-combatant, an I elligable?

[Mr. K]

Yes, they going to unleash terrorist attacks when they have no connections to any terrorist.. (or so they claimed...)

[L`enn]

I note your sarcasm, but in doing so it make me think, wow, heres the smoking gun, this guy just signed Iraq's death warrant. He submitted the proof himself Iraq is aligned with terrorism.

What can the peaceniks say? Well we forced them into it? He's lying? Kinda paints Iraq furtur into the corner.

[Brad’s Gramma]

Don't worry.

They'll twist it to their liking.

[Colonel Jim]

Right, what ever!

[templar]

It doesn't seem acceptable to me but I don't know what the other side is 'allowed' to do once they have been attacked.

I think it would depend, somewhat, on whether they were in Iraqi military uniform and what type of target they were attacking.

[rwfromkansas]

I am not exactly shaking in my boots.

Now, if all 1000 come to America, that would be frightening. But, I am not exactly going to be scared when they likely are all going elsewhere since Saddam is not man enough to send them over here since he knows that would spell his end.

[right way right]

Bingo! Terrorist alignment by Iraq confirmed!

[irish_lad]

What a load of horse shit. Another "brillant" Iraqi tactic to scare the world into not fighting.

[concerned about politics]

Saddams son said America would recieve an attack that would make 9/11 look like a joke if we invaded Iraq. If they have no WMD, what are they going to do? Kick sand in our faces? I'd say this is another admission as well.

[daviddennis]

Unless Iraq pays them in advance. In which case, they should take the money and run. Saddam isn't likely to have any enforcement mechanism in place after his death.

(This is one instance where I think all of us would forgive the crime of fraud and misrepresentation on the part of the "bombers". Take the money and enjoy, guys :-) ).

If they expect him to pay them after the war starts, they need a brain transplant and are most likely too dumb to succeed, in the Richard Reid mould.

D

[Wondervixen]

The other side is allowed to fight like men, not spread out and terrorize like cowards...Exterminate em without a trial if they're caught attempting anything!!!

[Bogey78O]

Have fun with Ossama

You mean the RATS and their facilitators couldn't figure that out when it was reported that he was paying the families if the homicide bombers in Israel?

[rundy]

a team of 1000 youths as suicide bombers...

Now let's see, 72 virgins for each suicide bomber...
That is 72,000 virgins for radical islamists.

I DON'T THINK SO!

[concerned about politics]

Exterminate em without a trial if they're caught attempting anything!!!

That would probably happen. Imagine if an attack happened in America. We're armed. Anyone from Iraq knows this.
Thank God for our 2nd ammendment. No sane person would even consider trying to attack an armed nation.

[a_Turk]

I'm going deaf with all these sabres rattling..

[txradioguy]

"I'm going deaf with all these sabres rattling.."


What?? Speak LOUDER! I can't hear you with all these darn saber's rattling!

[Husker24]

Nobody will kill themselves for this A-hole, this is a giant bluff.

[sarasmom]

Many in the USA have been dismayed by the reactions of Israel in the face of numerous terrorist attacks over the last several decades.

Note to Islamic terrorists..Israelis are much more tolerant than the USA.We in the USA like Israel, but often we do not understand their pacifist policies.We are not Israeli, and have no hesitation in responding to you, as we have no confused collective survival guilt to deal with, or whatever is the current anti-semetic explanation as to why Israel has not wasted your sorry asses already.

We have laws against suicide over here.They are intended to protect the mentally ill from themselves.Islam seems to be working hard to make themselves the poster child of the "Baker Act".

[Wondervixen]

If these pigs believe that women will not be permitted into their "Heaven", how do their best & brightest human bombs get their 72 virgins when they arrive to meet Allah?...Is it possible the "Virgins" Allah promised aren't equipped with vaginal playgrounds, but are the inexperienced best & brightest themselves???

[Cold Heat]

LOL!

[concerned about politics]

After reading about their pro-killing Koran, I've always pictured virgin male goats.
BTW, many folks who have deciphered the Koran in it's original language say the words are not "white virgins", but "white raisins." White raisens were a delacacy when the Koran was written. (This is no joke).

[GOPJ]

Bush needs to give a state of the Iraq speech. The people need to know we're not going to steal their oil. That we won't turn them over to the French to rule.

We'll assist them in becoming a democracy -- but not top down telling them how and what to do. We'll assist them with clarifying their own dreams of democracy. They vote on this, they vote on that, and soon you have a united regions of Iraq.

Four or five mini-countries/states with one semi-powerful federal government. Choices that are not acceptable will not be put on the table. Let the family kitchen, tent, whatever debates start.

Here (auf Deutsch) is the Der Spiegel article:

And here is a UPI article about the article:

Iraq vows suicide fighters if attacked

From the International Desk Published 2/2/2003 2:05 PM View printer-friendly version

Iraq said it will use suicide bombers if necessary to stave off a U.S.-led attack on it, and the country's deputy premier insisted it was free of weapons of mass destruction.

"We are looking forward to seeing them (the United States) use ground troops against us after the bombing from the air. They will meet with tough resistance everywhere," said Iraqi Vice-President Taha Yasin Ramadan in an interview with the German magazine Der Spiegel. "We do not have any long-distance missiles or bomber squadrons, but we will use thousands of suicide attackers, the istishhadiyun, the martyrs."

Der Spiegel, which posted the interview on its Web site Sunday, did not say when the meeting with Ramadan took place.

Ramadan said the Arabs would be his country's new weapons.

"They will be used not only in Iraq," he said. "The Arab peoples will help the people in Iraq in the fight for their independence. This will be a wildfire in the entire region."

Meanwhile, Iraqi deputy premier Tariq Aziz reiterated his country was free of prohibited weapons of mass destruction. He called U.S. charges against Iraq psychological warfare and an attempt to create a pretext for war.

Another Iraqi official, Information Minister Muhammad Sa'id al Sahhaf, said U.N. weapons inspectors at present in the country enjoyed freedom of movement but were still unable to find weapons of mass destruction. He said U.S. accusations that Baghdad possessed such weapons "camouflaged" Washington's true intent, which he said was to control the area's oil.

His comments came in a meeting with Hans Von Sponeck, former U.N. humanitarian coordinator for Iraq.

Since resuming searches on Nov. 27 after a four-year absence, more than 100 inspectors from the United Nations and the International Atomic Energy Agency have visited over 500 sites across Iraq that are suspected of involvement in Iraq's programs to develop weapons of mass destruction.

Iraq's Gen. Amer Saadi, a presidential adviser, invited U.N. chief inspector Hans Blix and IAEA head Mohammad ElBaradei to visit Baghdad before Feb. 10 to discuss Iraq's agreement to allow a U.S.-made U-2 spy planes over Iraq, the questioning of Iraqi scientists in private, and other contentious points. Blix and ElBaradei have agreed to meet with Iraqi officials, most likely on Feb. 8. They are expected to present their second report on Iraq to the U.N. Security Council the following week.

The two submitted a report to the Security Council on Jan. 27 in which they said Iraq was not cooperating as it should with the inspection teams.

U.S. President Bush and British Prime Minister Tony Blair, meanwhile, are reported to have agreed to give inspectors as much as six more weeks to do their job. Bush believes Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein has reportedly deceived the international community and so must be disarmed. Before his meeting with Blair last Friday, Bush had said he would use force unilaterally, if necessary to rid Saddam of his suspected weapons of mass destruction.

[a_Turk]

Turkish police used to show respect for women in their "habits" and not frisk them upon arrest. Big mistake. A whole paddywagon full of folks were blown to bits as a result, including cops. Such are our martyrs.

[TrappedInLiberalHell]

Nobody will kill themselves for this A-hole, this is a giant bluff.

Maybe they would if their families were threatened with torture and death, and/or promised amnesty if the mission is carried out. It's hard to know just how far a person will be willing to go when his buttons are pushed. I can't say for sure (can anyone?) what I would do if my family were tortured. May I, nor anyone in America, never have to find out the answer to that ugly hypothetical question.

[The Great Satan]

[Wondervixen]

Kinda cheap of ol' Allah, only rationing out 72 raisins, don'tcha think?

[bayareablues]

Okay, right. They'll send the kids out instead of themselves. What vermin. I think I heard on Drudge tonight that Saddam's key bodyguard or aid defected today and is spilling the locations of his bunkers already. The surrenders may begin earlier than they did during Desert Storm.

[CyberAnt]

Excellent point!!

Where are they going to find 72,000 virgins?

Here's where cloning comes in handy. LOL
