Raze Fallujah

For a Democrat, Tammy B rocks. Heck for a person, she rocks. Thank God for women like her. We get her new show on Saturdays on talk radio. She calls herself a JFK democrat. Wish all Dems were like that.

Now, if we could just get Tammy to realize that all her giftedness and cool sense of logic comes from a benevolent power higher than herself.

I'm praying for you Tammy. Good luck on your new show!

I stopped reading after she wrote the following.

There was a reason why two atomic bombs had to be dropped on Japan after Hiroshima, they still refused to surrender unconditionally.

She doesn't know history and we're not going to raze any city.

[Atlantic Friend]

Or could it be that the sentence is awkward ? Maybe she wanted to say that the reason a SECOND atomic bomb was dropped was that even after the first in Hiroshima Japan did refuse to surrender unconditionally ?

Bump for Tammy Bruce! Do what the Romans did to Carthage: Blow it up and sow it with salt so nothing will grow there. If I may be permitted to borrow the demand of Cato the Elder, our demand should be: Falluago delenda est.

It seems to me that places like this could be easily disarmed with a little creative thought. Just have helicoptors drop in pods containing radioactive waste for a few days - then stripsearch everybody who comes out and, once the city has been "disinfected" yank the pods and make a clean sweep of arms inspections before letting the inhabitants back in.

Hmmmm...Sounds to me like you're not sure if you should be 'peeing for distance, or for accuracy.' Either way it looks like you're more interested in a peeing contest {parsing words) rather than understanding the sum of her article.

Drive all the Fallujahans out of town to tents in the desert, their new homes.

Then level this f'ing Saddam and Gomorrah.

[wita]

Hmmmm? You are causing me to think.....What if, after they are in the desert, we provide one faucet, half inch line, and monitor who gets the water. If the population of the stinking hell hole is over a million, I'm guessing, there is no way one faucet is going to provide enough water, and I'm also surmising that the old guard supporters of Saddam will be the keepers of the water faucet.

Same with the meager food ration we will provide. Within three days, we would know everyone who needs to be shot at sunrise, and the others would be released before they starve do death or die of thirst. So maybe we ought to save the town so the desert refugees will still have a place to live after we do in the loyalists. Or, an alternative, no food no water, until every loyalist is turned in.

Right. Lay siege to this city. Surround it, nothing goes in, nothing comes out.

[He Rides A White Horse]

After a hundred days or so, I'm sure the townspeople will be marching the perpetrators out for us.

[He Rides A White Horse]

No food, water, or electricity. No medical supplies. Nothing.

When the perps are captured, they are executed publicly. A film is made showing the corpses being sewn up in pigskins and subsequently buried in undisclosed locations.

Then issue the warning that this will be the fate of any who continue to launch attacks against the coalition.

No food, water, electricity, or 72 virgins after they are dead.

She's a twit. I gotta laugh at the dem talking-heads when they get war-like. They're like a bunch of cheesed-off Pee-Wee Hermans.

[NaughtiusMaximus]

The pukes in Fallujah will only understand object lessons. Regretably, they won't be getting one anytime soon. At least not from us. We have fire eaters on FR at night but if you read the threads during the day the appeasers are already at work. If on FR, how much more so in the lamestream? In a week Fallujah will be a nonissue. And too darn bad too.

[Poohbah]

If you're such a brave fire-eater, why don't you get up from your keyboard and go give the folks in Fallujah an object lesson or two?

[q_an_a]

poison gas? radioactive waste? these are not the tools of a modern military. RAZE the city after a three day warning and search everyone that leaves, the rest will be gone on day 4.

[Katya]

Agreed....razing a city in retribution sounds like something a democrat would do....

I'd seal the city off, turn off the power until they give up their own. Let the mothers who want to feed their children rise up for food.

If they're going to do it they better do it fast. I live in the Philippines and I loose power on a weekly basis, it's not that big a deal really, except for loosing the Internet. But you know it doesn't get cold here and I have plenty of water on hand and can always go out and buy canned food. It's spring in Iraq now and the weather is getting warmer. It's going to take a long time to starve them into submission probable months and with the liberal press we get a lot of bad press in the meantime. It won't work!!!!

If nitpicking is your only positive contribution to the discussion, it's pretty much useless. But then, that is the typical "progressive" approach to discussions.
