Oh my God... It's horrible :(

[Bogey78O]

We have all of thier faces. We need to round them up then send them to Northern Iraq where they'll spend the rest of their lives in prison doing hard labor for murder.

Every single one all the way down to the kids. And those who drug the bodies should get the death penalty for participating in the murder.

[Integrityrocks]

Oh yes... but the anti-war people are assuring us that we just need to pack up and go home and leave these soldiers of SATAN to murder and fagedabout OUR MEN who have died in the name of democracy for the Iraquies.

Why the hell is Falluja still standing?

Fallujah April 2, 2004

There are forces, ones which seek to defeat the West, and see the USA become a third rate power, who are trying with all their might to turn Iraq into another Vietnam. Our biggest mistake with Vietnam (not to mention every other proxy war we've been in since WW2) was our failure to attack the sponsoring states with vigor. Let us not make the same mistake again. Do we have the courage to demolish the sponsoring states?

Let Iraq split into 3 countries and the Sunnis will get what they deserve i.e. poverty and violence.

Shoot every mother dancing on the wrecks ... they'll have to celebrate murder in private - the glorification and subsequent publication of these photos without consequence only encourages more a**holes.

Stupidity - particularly what appears to be culturally based over there - should be painful if not outright lethal.

[af_vet_1981]

Treat them all as enemy combatants and kill them.

[Dead Corpse]

Kill them. All of them. They are a blight that must be stopped. Use nukes if we have to.

[Argus]

Just give the Kurdish Pesh Merga a weekend to do whatever they choose in Fallujah. We'll never hear from the place again.

Iraqis chant anti-American slogans on a bridge over the Euphrates River where charred bodies are hanging in Fallujah, west of Baghdad, Wednesday March 31 2004. Enraged Iraqis in this hotbed of anti-Americanism killed four foreigners Wednesday, including at least one U.S. national, took the charred bodies from a burning SUV, dragged them through the streets, and hung them from the bridge spanning the Euphrates River.

These mercenaries got too cocky and paid the price.

Wasn't one of the reasons we removed Saddam because he destroyed the villages of his enemies and left them in mass graves? Why would it be okay for us to do this if it was wrong for Saddam?

The US must target the ideology, not just the terrorists, or it will fail in Iraq.
