Well, they DID tell the women and children not to look back when they left the City...something about stone...

It's Past Time We Set Some Deadlines!!!

Yes, the release of all hostages and surrender of all terrorists within 12 hours or Fallujah ceases to exist. Period. Do it.

I like that idea!

That is what I would do...We need some gonads here:)

[TOUGH STOUGH]

Poor Thomas Hammill must be terrified out of his mind. He will be remembered in my prayers.

And I agree with your statement in post #1.

How about this response:

"If you immediately release all hostages unharmed we will honor your wish when you beg us to kill you the first time. Otherwise, we will wait a full 72 hours after you begin begging for death to allow you to finally die.

Take it or leave it, vermin."

There is a story told among Shiites today that as the revered Imam Hussein lay dying on the fields of Karbala in 680 A.D., he cursed the people of what is now Iraq for having deserted him in his hour of need. "May you never satisfy a ruler," he gasped. "And may you never be satisfied by a ruler."

Well, since they refuse to rule themselves, such a curse is deservedly theirs.

Unfortunately, even GW doesn't have the balls to follow that plan.

Restraint during war is not productive. Read Henry V concerning going into battle and his speech before Harfleur.

If Coalition forces do not end their blockade, "he will be dealt with worse than those who were killed and burned in Fallujah", said a voice on the tape. The man was referring to the gruesome murder and mutilation of four American contractors in the city 11 days ago.

Bla bla bla. They always say sh1t like this. Kill more of them.

It would be better to set an example for them, and kill the civilians of an entire town, than to let this thing escalate into a world-wide nuclear war.

The thing that bothers me is why Saddam Hussain acted as if he had WMF if he didn't.

In order to free the hostages, where gonna have to think like Muslims. I say we tell the hijackers, if they free the hostages, they'll be rewarded with 172 virgins. I say we up the anti by 100 more. Islam promises 72 virgins. I say we offer a 100 more. I also say, we tell the hostages that 8000 Jews didn't show up at the World Trade Center on Sep 11th.

Sniper starring Tom Berenger , Directed by Luis Llosa is on ABC right now.

I wish we could play war more this way with our little friends.
