Just broke on Fox

Personally, I don't care if they're Sunni or Shia. If they're fighting, they're Islamist. Kill them.

They report what somebody breathlessly tells them on a cell phone while ducking behind a wall.

In the case of CNN, they have been scammed by phony phone callers so many times, you have to take some of their reports with a grain of salt.

Don't need fighters...we've got an AC-130 overhead. With its on-board 105mm cannon, 40mm and 20mm Gatling guns, Spectre is raining death on Sadr's boys.....that's why the enemy KIA count is at 130--and rising...

[Dog]

There will be more American deaths before this is over....that is a fact.......they(bad guys) want to stop the June 30th handover......once this is turned over to the Iraqs.....the mideast will not tolerate AQ/Sunni terrorists killing other muslims.

Read the Zarqawi letter we captured it will help you to understand .......what is happening today is in that letter.

After you read it ......look me up on FR I'll discuss it with you.

[Fury]

LOL... Good point!

Even Brit isn't perfect and sometimes gets it wrong..

He's better than most of them, even while hearing someone talk in his earpiece, facing the bright lights in front of him, reading the prompter and the computer and dealing with breaking news and coordinating conversations with guests.

Therein lies the problem. If the media would refer to our guys as "soldiers" and the other side as "the enemy" we'd all have a much clearer communication and understanding.

12 of our brave guys (every one of them a painful sorrow for America) vs. 130 murdering pukes. Those numbers can't be argued with. By anybody on this thread.

In all, more than 140 Iraqis and 18 American soldiers have died in three days of clashes, the worst fighting since the war that toppled Saddam Hussein. A Salvadoran soldier and one from Ukraine also were killed

Thank you for that update

Seems some in the media screwed up the news again

Sending prayers for your brave soldiers

Can we please drop some MOABs?...Please...Pretty Please...

Read the Zarqawi letter we captured it will help you to understand

An excellent suggestion.... EVERYONE who has doubts today should re-read that letter.

It must be a 'dog-day' eh, Dog?

[expatguy]

As a country we have the will to fight the war. I wonder at times if we have the will though to win it.

[TexKat]

Not true - lose that story.

Thanks ScaniaBoy, I was well aware what the real deal was/is.

[kevkrom]

Personally, I don't care if they're Sunni or Shia. If they're fighting, they're Islamist. Kill them.

Make that: If they're fighting, they're the enemy. Who cares if they're Islamist or not -- if they are fighting our guys, then they need to be destroyed.

[kjam22]

Amen.

" . . . . we haven't played cowboys and muslims, yet . . . . "

I think our guys started playing that today, maybe. (smile)

It seems to have to do with state laws--that ALL absentee ballots HAVE to be sent and received by mail (27 states). Due to duty stations, ballots arrive late, thus being invalid. GAO report says too little has been done to solve the problem. Mail to/from some duty stations take upwards of 2 months.

Just as well, there was a poll in Stars and Stripes a few months ago that showed that there wasn't strong support in the rank and file for Bush, at that point they weren't going to vote overwhelmingly for him... That may have changed by now, but delays likely won't hurt the President's chances.

[johnb838]

With everything going on I can't blame Brit a bit for getting confused.

The UN is not an acceptable choice to govern until Annan is OUT and the garbage is cleaned up. Iraq has been SCREWED by the UN and if you want to see the population REALLY turn against us, just flood the country with carpetbaggers in white SUVs and see what happens.

And BTW, there needs to be some kind of consequences for these traitorous rats who are undermining our national defense. If we can't jail them, they need to be shut up some other way. Not saying how.

[San Jacinto]

Thank you for standing up for civilization

In a nutshell, that's what this is all about.
