Chicago Tribune, 10 Nov 04 (Excerpt from article entitled "GIs punch into Fallujah center")...
"A U.S. psychological operations unit broadcast a message in Arabic over a loudspeaker in an attempt to draw out insurgents. 'Brave terrorists, I am waiting here for the brave terrorists. Come and kill us. Plant small bombs on roadsides. Attention, attention, terrorists of Fallujah.'"
Related Tribune article also reports of a Humvee with a loudspeaker blaring Richard Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries," the music used in the helicopter attack scene in "Apocalypse Now."
FINALLY...a war-effort contibution from Hollywood!
"Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!"
And how about the costume-challenged Gene Simmons/baseball players "gang"?...Or that pool-room head-bangin' chick gang? Lol!
"Why in the hell wasn't his family under 24 hour a day protection?"
Well, in all reality, he's probably got a HUGE family. I'm not sure what these folks relationship to him is, I think I heard the women are an aunt, and a cousin? I'm really not sure. But cousin-marriage is a big thing with the Arabs, so I'm sure their concept of "family" is rather larger than ours, and they have bigger families than we do to begin with.
I see you are from Texas, do you know Robert Earle Keene? And his one (at the very least) contribution to ART, the song "Merry Christmas from the Family"? One of the many excellent and true lines in the song goes like this: Fran and Rita drove from Harligen/I can't remember how I'm kin to him
I've got those problems myself, and I'm from some pretty small families.
The postponement of action in Fallujah definately cost some lives, hopefully we won't be making any more of those mistakes, at least. We need to be on the Offensive for the foreseeable future. I think global jihad intends to continue to (attempt at least) to ramp things up. Iraq is their superbowl, their NY, if we insure they fail there, it will be a very good thing.
Dead I am the one, Exterminate my son Slipping through the trees, strangling the breeze Dead I am the sky, watching angels fry While they slowly turn, conquering the worm Dig through the ditches,and Burn through the witches and slam in the back of my Dragula!
Dig through the ditches,and Burn through the witches and slam in the back of my Dragula!
Dead I am the pools, spreading from the fool Weak and what you need, nowhere as you bleed Dead I am the rat, feast upon the cat Tender is the fur, dying as you purr
Dig through the ditches,and Burn through the witches and slam in the back of my Dragula
Dig through the ditches,and Burn through the witches and slam in the back of my Dragula
Doin' it baby, Doin' it baby Doin' it baby, Doin' it baby Burn like an animal
Dead I am the life, dig into the skin Knuckle crack the bone, 21 to win
Dead I am the dog, hound of hell you cry Devil on your back, I can never die
Dig through the ditches,and Burn through the witches and slam in the back of my Dragula
Dig through the ditches,and Burn through the witches and slam in the back of my Dragula
Doin' it baby, Doin' it baby Do it baby, Do it baby Burn like an animal
Dig through the ditches,and Burn through the witches and slam in the back of my Dragula
Dig through the ditches,and Burn through the witches and slam in the back of my Dragula
Dig through the ditches,and Burn through the witches and slam in the back of my Dragula!
You're overthinking this. It's the rythem of war for that particular war. It's also a tribute to the Vietnam vets.
I just thought of something. Where is all the liberal outrage and claims of a bazillion civilian deaths in Fallujah?
As I said - I know where you are comming from and do not make you wrong for it - hell we are all human and are all disfunctional in one way or another.
As Rebelbase put so aptly in #119:
"I'm sure Nazis also drank beer and ate bratwurst. Doesn't keep me from enjoying the same."
Rebelbase is not hung up emotionally on beer and bratwurst. This is a healthy attitude.
I abhore what happened to the Jews in WWII and now. I don't get hung up over it. (I have Polish Jews in part of my bloodline).
I enjoy the "Ride of the Valkyries" - have it on my HD and wake to it on days I really want to be pumped up from the git go. I use it for my own ends.
I hate the ACLU - And I celebrate that they can be @sses and raise our hackles in the good ol' US of A.
Great pic!! God bless him.
Thank you God for these brave men.
Who are you? Uncle Leo??
The important thing to remember here is: Bugs Bunny was NOT an anti-semite.
Smells like victory.
How about something by Ministry? Al Jourgensen seems to hate Bush. We could kill two birds with one stone.
I loved the ballplayers.
Roller-skaters, killer mimes...the movie had it all...LOL!
[rats...this means I'll be at Circuit City picking up a DVD copy tomorrow]
I hate that wabbit- E. Fudd..
Be Vewy, vewy, quiet... I'm hunting Twolls...- Fudd.. shuush..
Wagner is good. But I've heard the jihadis can't stand Metallica. A good amp, good speakers and a CD player with Enter Sandman, No Leaf Clover, and a few other choice favoites on a loop setting.
Give 'em some Master of Puppets, Michael Savage's theme song.
I'd think "Enter Sandman" would give them the terminal creeps....:)
I wonder what kind of music they'll get to listen to in hell.
"I've seen stories on the History channel where they played Wagner in concentration camps.
Wagner is closly tied to the Nazis wether you choose to believe it or not."
My point is - SO WHAT - if you choose to be hung up over this then I support you in your choice and do not want to hear the whining.
If one chooses to play victim - OK - however I choose not to participate.
Life is short. Don't think so? When you are 62 - as I am - you will look back and wonder - why did I let all that sh*t get in my way and hold me back?
Got it?
"Give 'em some Master of Puppets, Michael Savage's theme song."
I like Michael - but that drives me nuts!
"Ride of the Valkyries,"
Go get'em boys. Call'em out if you have to and kill them. I love our troops.
That is one tough lookin hombre. Glad he's on our side!
Way you go guys!
My prayers and hopes for ya'll!
