Is the troop on the left wearing an ankle gun?

Its a kneeguard. Great for a rapid drop to the "kneeling position" for fire. Sucks to pound your knees on rocks. Look at the first photo in post #1. (Please don't call them kneepads, that reminds me of Monica and the Impeached 42nd POTUS.)

Can you ID the "shipping tubes" in the photo?

The one in the rear, I believe, though the PG-7 grenade is most commonly used in the Iraqi RPG-7D and RPG-7V launchers for antitank work. But rifle grenades can be fired from encloised rooms of buildings, suckering American vehicle crews into returning fire, killing innocent occupants inside to provide evidence of an *American massacre of women and children.* And AT rifle grenades should work just fine against lightly armoured Humvees or Strykers.

Am I the only one who thinks we should be doing summary executions for guys driving around with IED materials? Or maybe a quick military tribunal with a field-grade presiding, and a quick hanging or firing squad.

There was a British officer named Bannistre Tarleton who utilized similar procedures in the Carolinas during the American Revolutionary War period, giving the practice the term *Tarleton's Quarter- and him the place in history of being recalled as *Bloody Ban* and *the Butcher of the Carolinas*>

Aside from the practical value of well-interrogated prisoners as intelligence sources or *Kit Carson Scouts,* remember that they have families who will hold a blood feud against Americans all their lives for those events taking place now, and it's quite possible that in 2075, a great-grandson of an Iraqi so eliminated will take his revenge against an American man, woman or child, or multiples thereof, to settle that perceived debt.

If you are not familiar with the Australian example at Broken Hill on New Years Day, 1915, you should be.

There are times when such methods may be expeditious, even necessary. But they should never be commonplace or general policy. They convince the enemy to fight to the death, as they have nothing to gain by surrender.

I'd give 'em ice cream delivered by Hooter's girls if I could, accompanied by Jello and peperoni pizza. After they'd eaten it, THEN we tell 'em what it's made from.

Hmmmm....was that the basis for the villian in the Mel Gibson Patriot flick ??

Gotta read up on that !

Stay Safe !

Looks like they caught Bevis and Butthead before they could do their deeds. Thank God lives have been saved due to this capture. I hope to hear more about this and less about the bad stuff in the press.
