"And that's exactly what the people doing these killings want you to think."
So what are we then hoping to achieve with the Iraq occupation? The whole thing is starting to look like a liberal social engineering project gone wrong.

Every person identified in the photos should be rounded up, castrated, and have his right hand amputated. I'd tattoo the Stars and Stripes on his forehead too.

I was thinking the same thing regarding the press. How do they continually find ways to be safe when all other Americans would be in grave danger?Because those people want the press to see this stuff, so that it gets out to the rest of the world. For better or for worse, both sides need and use the press.

"I'm more and more starting to think the whole Iraq war was a mistake." This is what Mssr. Kerry wants you to think - I wager he'll blame this on Bush.

Now what we need is NON-Somalia type reaction: go after them with a vengeance they'll never forget. No cutting and running a la Clinton. Fallujah, the new Carthage. Works for me...

Take GPS reading twice, nuke once. We have their pictures, hunt them down and kill them.
Perhaps the animals in this picture should be turned into charred corpses.
All good suggestions, I kinda like the idea of napalm.
To: zencat
"Agreed. I'm not a nuke the whole town guy, but this type of behavior demands a HARSH response to show that it will not be tolerated."
Practical and humanitarian solution to this problem:
1. Temporarily remove all the Sunnis from their towns, put them in barbed-wire surrounded camps.
2. Inspect the Sunni towns for weapons caches and hidden WMDs.
3. Daisy Cut the towns. Level them. Leave nothing standing.
4. Build a wall around those towns like the Israelis did around the Palestinian areas.
5. Return the Sunnis to their towns. Give the residents enough brick and mortar to rebuild their homes; electricity coming in, and water/water treatment.
6. Move all Sunnis in Iraq to these towns.
7. Let the civilized Iraqis manage access to and from these Sunni areas.
To: Charles Henrickson
Savage is too kind of a word for these scumbags. It's time we bring in tanks and just blow their F-ing homes up ala Israel.

I'd favor napalm.

This is *exactly* why this happened. The Clinton administration (of which Richard Clarke was a key member) cut and ran, so we'll face these same tactics until someone else shows them differently. concur The response requires a distillation of fear that is unmistakable in the arab world, yet subtle in western minds.
I am uncertain as to exactly what that response is, however what the SS did to certain villages in eastern europe is probably over the line.

That will be the reaction of many, I'm afraid.

"So were they the soldiers or not????"
Probably not. They were driving civilian vehicles, one of them was a woman, and they were of different nationalities. My guess is that they were probably press of some sort but they could have been affiliated with a relief organization, or who knows? All kinds of western civilians are over there now.

Here is how I would handled this Sunni Triangle snake pit: 1. Set up a cordon sanitaire around Fallujah. Nobody goes in. The residents only go out, once, through check points to be sorted into "totally harmeless" or "in need of imprisonment"
2. Wait as long as it takes to have nobody left in the city except the Bathist die-hards.
3. Wage mechanical urban warfare on the city and the holdouts with heavy emphasis on air power and artillery and practically no emphasis on infantry.
4. Sustain the attack until there is not a stray dog left alive to roam the streets.
May I add:
5. MOAB the remains until no stone stands upon another. 6. Salt the earth.

One does not fight war, and expect to win, using tactics dictated by the enemy or the "caring people of the world."
One fights to win. To fight otherwise is to prepare to die.
One fights skillfully. To fight otherwise is to be willing to have your fellow soldiers die.
One fights to have it over victoriously, as soon as possible. To prolong war or to "fight nice" is to ensure more on both sides are killed.

"Will Kerry also "drag these corpses through the street" of public opinion? "
I predict yes. Great Question.
Prayers for Our Troops and Civilians in Iraq, And for those on our side, the side of Freedom. (including many Iraqis)
May the response by our CIC and Military be decisive and extreme to those guilty of even support for this hideous and pathetic act.
