Horrifying US Secret Weapon Unleashed In Baghdad

A nightmarish US super weapon reportedly was employed by American ground forces during chaotic street fighting in Baghdad. The secret tank-mounted weapon was witnessed in all its frightening power by Majid al-Ghazali, a seasoned Iraqi infantryman who described the device and its gruesome effects as unlike anything he had ever encountered in his lengthy military service. The disturbing revelation is yet another piece of cinematic evidence brought back from postwar Iraq by intrepid filmmaker Patrick Dillon.
In the film, al-Ghazali, whose english is less than fluent, describes the weapon as reminiscent of a flame thrower, only immensely more powerful. It is unclear what principle the weapon is based on. Searching for a description, al-Ghazali said it appeared to be shooting concentrated lightning bolts rather than just ordinary flames. Drawing on his many years as a professional engineer, al-Ghazali speculates that radiation of some kind probably figures into the weapon's hideous capabilities. Like all men in Saddam's Iraq, al-Ghazali was compelled to serve in the Iraqi equivalent of the Army National Guard and fought in three wars over the past thirty-odd years. Via email, he told me he has seen virtually every type of conventional weapon employed in battle, and is well acquainted with their effects on people and machines, but nothing in his extensive combat experience prepared him for the shock of what he saw in Baghdad on April 12th.
On that date, al-Ghazali and his family sheltered in their house as a fierce street battle erupted in his neighborhood. In the midst of the fighting, he noticed that the Americans had called up an oddly configured tank. Then to his amazement the tank suddenly let loose a blinding stream of what seemed like fire and lightning, engulfing a large passenger bus and three automobiles. Within seconds the bus had become semi-molten, sagging "like a wet rag" as he put it. He said the bus rapidly melted under this withering blast, shrinking until it was a twisted blob about the dimensions of a VW bug. As if that were not bizarre enough, al-Ghazali explicitly describes seeing numerous human bodies shriveled to the size of newborn babies. By the time local street fighting ended that day, he estimates between 500 and 600 soldiers and civilians had been cooked alive as a result of the mysterious tank-mounted device.

MWWWWWHHHHHHAAAAAHHHHAAAAAHHHHAAAA!!!!
None can stand before the might of America's radioactive lightning bolts! Nothing but a technologically advanced helmet constructed of multiple thin layers of aluminum could possibly hope to block the effects of our lightning gun!

Maybe the Army finally uncrated that box that Indiana Jones brought back from Egypt in the movie, RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK!?

I think the Israeli's must have helped us develop this weapon.
It's probably similar to that brain ray that they're using on Arafat.

Reminds me of what Mel said as William Wallace:
"Oh, and if William Wallace was here, he'd consume the enemy with fire from his eyes and lightening bolts from his arse".
If you want to see how these backward these people are and how they think check out this Mark Steyn column. It is a riot. Make sure you at least read the first couple of paragraphs, down to the part about Hillary. I still laugh every time I think about what he said about dear Senator Clinton. Paranoia in the Middle East
