O'Reilly to call for the leveling of Fallujah?
Foxnews ^ | March 31, 2004. | Bill O' Reilly

Posted on 03/31/2004 4:31:20 PM PST by ConservativeMan55

Foxnews host Bill O'Reilly just previewed his show. "Problems continue for the U.S. Military in Fallujah. Why doesn't the U.S. Military just go ahead and level it?"

I have to say that I agree with Bill. Level the place.

I think the survival issue is a key one.

But I don't think we need to WHOLESALE stoop to their level.

I think we can be very harsh selectively, dramatically, vividly.

Perhaps we have to empty the city. Perhaps quarter by quarter.

Perhaps we have to level some large areas.

Perhaps we have to turn their mosques into pig pens.

Whatever, it needs to be dramatic, forceful, terminal, vivid and thoroughly in control.

ROCK SOLID CONTROL.

I don't know that leveling a whole city of 200,000 is proportional.

But something akin to that seems called for.

FALLUJAH will likely never become buddys with us.

THEY WILL UNDERSTAND EMPHATIC, OVERWHELMING, TERMINAL, DRAMATIC, VIVID DESTRUCTIVE FORCE. AND THEY WILL RESPECT IT.

THAT'S ABOUT ALL THAT REGION DOES RESPECT.

TOO TRUE.

At least they respect force.

They don't respect weakness. Their evil increases in the face of weakness.

These Iraqis obviously do not want better lives for themselves; I guess they'd rather live in the dark ages.

Hell has plenty of room for these goons.

It's against our nature and values to prevent the innocent any possibility of escape.

We don't need to become like them. But I'd make it challenging--a realtively short deadline to vacate the city with nothing more than say the food they can pack out.

Would provide water and maybe let the Red Crescent provide tents and toilets.

Then I think I'd remove every shred of arms including knives longer than pocket knife length from the whole city. And all terrorists etc. I identified, I'd level their homes and the homes of their relatives.

Something like that might be very needed.

Very clever.

But I already think the tribal stuff is so intense we really should divide the country up into 3 sections.

NO!

THEY COULD ONLY EVACUATE TO A CONCENTRATION CAMP SURROUNDED BY BARBED WIRE AND MINES. I wouldn't even worry about tents unless maybe Saudia Arabia wanted to pay for them.

And I think I'd charge the Saudi's 1,000 barrels of oil per tent or some such.

Kerry would use firecrackers.

Kerry would patiently explain, why, exactly, we deserved it.

Only after getting approval from the UN.

The country can ill afford to lose men of this caliber.

We predict that we will once again follow the trail blazed by the IDF, including leveling of the homes of those involved and their families and the giving of their land to those working with us not against us.

The entire city of Fallujah means much less to me than those heros.

This should not be turned into a law enforcemr=ent matter with its attendant army of trial lawyers. it is a military matter. As there has already been a cease fire, these creatures are unlawful combatants. Fighting this kind of enemy with Marquis of Queensnury rules is doomed to failure. Let the population of Fallujah give up the ghouls quickly, or pay a high price for harboring them.

"We've got to take these bastards.
Now, we could fight 'em with conventional weapons,
But that could take years and cost millions of lives.
No, in this case, I think we have to go all out.
I think this situation absolutely requires
that a futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part."
