Here the Americans have mercy. ""We're all human, and there is that initial thought of why would we want to treat these guys," said Brown, 37, from Reno, Nev. "But I've had the opportunity to talk with the average Joe Iraqi, and they say the Quran teaches tolerance, tolerance of others and peace. ... Islam is not what these guys made it out to be."

The insurgents hiring these foreigners have none, Margaret Hassan is reported to have been shot to death in the head in a video tape released yesterday.

This is not a holy war. There is no religion involved here with the hired help, only economics. "When the pain subsided, Khalid, with a black cloth blindfold over his dirt-streaked face, began telling his story. He said he'd gone to Syria from Saudi Arabia and then crossed the border into the Iraqi town of al Husayba. From there, he said, an insurgent intermediary took a group of men and him by minivan to Fallujah."

"I was in a house with no food, no water, nothing," he said. He wouldn't discuss the fighting he'd been in.

On a nearby cot, Abbas Yousef, an 18-year-old Jordanian with a shattered femur, said he left home because he wasn't getting along with his parents. He was smuggled into Iraq, he said, and was taken to a hotel in Baghdad where he worked for a short time before being shipped to Fallujah for the fight. He said he was paid $100 a month to shoot at Americans."

Yet if Americans shoot now and ask questions later, it is an outrage.

In the Middle East money talks to incite violence anywhere(Saddam Hussein using Oil for Food money to pay families of suicide bombers)and the takers are ignorant foreigners.

The real outrage is the double-edged sword the Americans are up against in Iraq. Fighting for a peoples' freedom with the sword and dying by the sword of a treacherous evil that lives among the Iraqis. "Someone yelled, in an angry voice, "these were the guys that were shooting RPGs at us," referring to rocket-propelled grenades."

The battles in Fallujah and everyday elsewhere in Iraq are not Crusades but are truly in reality battles of war between a merciful Western God and his soldiers and the unmerciful Devil of pure hate, vengence, deceit and mercenary foreign blood.

"I came here for the work," he said. "I know nothing about Iraq."

Uh-huh. And Hillary really, really, really isn't going to run for president in '08, either.

No, really. She said she wasn't planning to run for president.

I believe her.



I also believe that the moon is made of green cheese and that the earth is being taken over by invaders from Mars (AKA Democrats).
