Terrific! The only thing they understand is violence. Maybe this will make an impression. The Iraquis need the beginnings of a viable society and economy, which we're working on, but meanwhile we need to kill the bad guys in as public a way as possible.

"The soldier ALLEGEDLY shot by the Iraqi..."

The DIS-associated press with its left-wing radical crap does it again!

If anyone can ever find the email address of these so-called "reporters" let us know so we can let them know that we are aware of their propaganda techniques.

Also, let the source of the story know that they will not get away with their subterfuges.

FOX News simply "forgot" to credit the story? Isn't that called plagiarism?

The ORIGINAL story begins...

TIKRIT, Iraq (AP) -- U.S. troops arrested a Saddam Hussein loyalist early Sunday suspected in last month's shooting of an American soldier who was saved by his flak jacket, the Army said.


Notice the -- AP -- The DIS-associated press logo

I think the story has credibility - so does Fox, or they would not have put their's on the line.

I focused on the two POSITIVE things about the story:

#1: The life of one of our finest was spared being murdered by an Islamic jihad warrior.

and

#2: The same soldier whose life had been spared turned around and arrested the very same would-be murderer who sought to kill him.

It's a good story.

Reading about all these bastards that we are "arresting", and "capturing" bothers me.

What are we going to with them? In a year or so, it'll be "Ok, you guys can go home - now you be good!"

These folks need killed!

Also Sunday, Iraqi police surrounded at least two Tikrit hotels and arrested several men calling themselves migrant workers. The soldiers suspected the men of belonging to the Badr Corps, the military wing of the Supreme Council of the Islamic Revolution in Iraq, Sgt. Bryan Luke said.

Hmmmmmmm!

Exactly what I was thinking. These bastards are fanatics; they aren't going to just go home and start farming if they're cut loose, like ordinary military conscripts.

So what do we do with them all? Hold them and feed them until they die of old age?

IMHO, soldiers don't "arrest" people. He was fired on and hit, the guy who did the firing should be dead, not "arrested"

Probably a good thing he was captured alive. If he had pictures of himself posing with saddam, he's probably not a little guppy.

A whole new meaning to the term "migrant workers" = Foreign Terrorists For Hire.
