They even had to make their own sniper rifles from their AK-47's....said their weapons were held up by the state dept. I get almost daily reports.

I cannot believe all this is happening at Easter Holidays...

The timing cannot be an accident.

These savages have no concept of a "Better way of Life", so we will show them a nightmare of existence."

Give 'em the HELL they deserve! Prayers and gratitude to our troops!

Yeah, that one was peppered with a few expletives....I edited those out for posting. He has sent many other tagline worthy sentiments, but they don't comply with posting rules.

"We swear to God, we are not afraid of death. We are going to heaven."

Be patient, arrangements are being made. It may WILL be a bumpy ride.

Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, denounced the kidnapping of the Japanese as a terrorist act and demanded their immediate release

How many Muslims have you heard of saying something like this? If he's not blowing smoke, I wouldn't count on him being around very much longer.

I'll take what I can get, I feel honored to display their words.

If they were doing well, their attitude would be "Bring it on"

They're trapped, desperate, and looking for any way to make their escape. But every one who makes it out alive will be a threat to American lives

For the sake of your fellow Americans -- Kill them.

For the sake of peace and freedom in the Middle East -- Kill them

Kill them all.

I was behind a PKM all day don't know how many I sent down range, lost count at 600 rounds so we are hammering them through buildings and in the open.

Interesting choice of weaponry.

Feeds from the right side, rather than the left, so has some interesting applications for vehicle mounting and other specific uses. Very popular in Afghanistan with those working with the Gurkhas guarding critical installations, including communications relay facilities.

Great for your friend and may he be protected. This is a dicey guerrilla war now. There are no Vietnam type jungles in Iraq but the Islamikazis telegraphed their intent months ago. To draw us into urban areas and make this their sanctuary, their jungle that they shoot at us from. Snipe at us from. Fire RPGs from.

What impact will all of this have on the U.S.S.C.'s ruling on whether or not the prisoners at Guantanimo will win rights to be tried in open U.S. courts?

[dennisw]

MOABs and AC-130s do it for me too. Feed the Jihadis hot lead and blast pressures.

"This is a dicey guerrilla RAGING HOLY WAR now.

[Shooter 2.5]

Moore and Geoghegan: a prayer before leaving for Vietnam

Lt. Colonel Hal Moore: Our Father in Heaven, before we go into battle, every soldier among us will approach you each in his own way. Our enemies too, according to their own understanding, will ask for protection and for victory. And so, we bow before your infinite wisdom. We offer our prayers as best we can. I pray you watch over the young Jack Geoghegan. That I lead into battle. You use me as your instrument in this awful hell of war to watch over them. Especially if they're men like this one beside me, deserving of a future in your blessing and goodwill. Amen.

2nd Lieutenant Jack Geoghegan: Amen.

Lt. Colonel Hal Moore: Oh, yes, and one more thing, dear Lord, about our enemies, ignore their heathen prayers and help us blow those little bastards straight to Hell. Amen.

If this is holy war, we know where the ultimate command and control center is. The last fountain of evil. Two cities in Arabia.

[Lijahsbubbe]

That post made me cry. I hate the evil in this world.

"We have Japanese, Bulgarian, Israeli, American, Spanish and Korean hostages. Their numbers are 30."

He added: "If America doesn't lift its blockade of Falluja, their heads will be cut off."

For 50+ years half the muslim world has been terrorizing Israel. Of late, in every place they reside, muslims are trying to win power with "force."

For them, terror and dirty tactics are okay, cuz muhamid the rule giver sez so.

Anything whatsoever to advance islam, anything.

Hopefully this will piss off Japan, the 2nd largest economy in the world.
