IMHO for Iraqi people thier own dictator is BETTER then foreign invador.
I'm NOT surprised because I know that it is true for russians.


The dirty little secret is that many Russians welcomed the Nazis and were glad to be rid of Stalin - until Hitler proved to be worse. That is not what is on offer to Iraq.

"I wonder if the Germans are still glad that they sold Saddam all of that weapons technology?"...to the germans i dont think it matters..GWB's fault...besides the germans knew it would be used against the US or Israel..pls note that you will not hear any glee over the death of these germans just condolences for the families...one can only wonder how germans feel when they hear of Americans dying.

Perhaps I misunderstood this part of your post:

Their is no option except to kill them all as quickly as possible, IGC and June 30 be d****d - Even if we fill more mass graves than Saddam.

Did you mean kill all hostile Iraqis and their foreign 'helpers', or what group? My point was that we cannot 'get them all', meaning Muslims in general who mostly hate us, so we need to find some sort of deterrent that the entire Muslim world would find beyond the pale. One common sentiment is targeting nukes on Mecca, although I'm no longer sure even that would deter them.

It is unfortunate that these two decent Germans, there to aid in the security of the chaos that is Iraq, were killed.

God rest their souls.

launching attacks from a sovereign state that we couldn't attack. These terrorists in Iraq have no where to go...

Don't be so sure.

See the info provided by Belmont Mark Blog and that by Michael Ledeen in National Review.

Iran is behind this Big Time.

This is going to be a wider war.

We're gonna need some more men.

I have noticed muslim men seem to have an unIslamic fascination with the private parts of our men.

That's where Arab culture can't reach the standards of Islam.

We need some kind of "Sword of Damocles"

The only possible such threat would be to drop one on Mecca.

I hope that such an intimidation is being weighed and considered, at least as a deterrence.

Your comment gave me pause.

Yes, I do think there is nothing but condolensces here for the Germans, but what sentiments do their web sites display about American dead ?

take your point, either the writer is a tad bi-romantic himself......or he just marked the man for death, for threatening his own life and because he's a terrorist. How corny is that?

Why mark the guy with a cheesy description in a news article when instead, the better alternative would be to give a full description of the perp, in person to the proper authorities?

They only want a peaceful Islamic state, where all can live equally, terrified and enslaved, women in Hefty bags and armed men with towels over their angry faces. How lovely for them.

They believe that that's what Allah wants.
