big surprise.....
I'll be watching for THIS item in the al Jazeera Daily News!
I bet they were all SUVs.
This incident (and others) should allow coalition and Iraqi forces to inspect Mosques.
Every single mosque in Fallujah was an ammo dump and terrorist camp. Nobody should be even slightly surprised.
For safety's sake, detonate on-site.
We are onto the mosque hiding weapons thing. Look for a lot more of these type raids.
Would the Muslims stoop to this? Defiling a holy site?
I'm sure this is just a big misunderstanding. Many places of worship have buses and vans to pick up those worshippers not able to come down to ye olde mosque or church. :-p
I say we rig these seven cars for remote detonation, park them outside the seven most radical mosques in Baghdad, and light 'em all up simultaneously!
---He said the mosque leader and 18 other people were detained.---
I would suggest public execution. There is nothing to be gained beyond a period of questioning, from keeping these people to release another day and much to be gained from an immediate and harsh example.
No telling what's going on in the mosques in the U.S.
If I'm not mistaken, using a place of worship as a staging area for detonating explosives is a violation of the Geneva Accords. And the Western Media is virtually silent. Whoda thunk it. Guess they were too busy trying to scare up a court martial for a marine shooting a non-uniformed combatant during battle in another mosque.
In the future, any such whining should be totally ignored officially and unofficially.
The abuse of mosques is so well documented by now that any further protest should fall on permanently deaf ears.
Further, to punctuate the resolve not to give any such complaint any validity, any mosque found to contain anything bigger than a small arm, should automatically be razed.
These SMs* need to decide whether they need religion or weapons depots...
*SM© = Sweet Muslims
Are there any Mosques NOT being used for hiding weapons?
Great news, and probably a couple of hundred lives saved.
Somehow I was wishing they were dealt a more Darwinian end.
Another mosque, another jihad center!
This is the sort of thing that just pisses me off. Here we are, a freedom loving country, allowing people to practice whatever faith they desire - and our enemy is using our tolerance against us. Hey, those minerets on the mosques make GREAT aiming points - let's level these dens of terrorism once and for all....
One of the best things about the handover in June is it took the onus off the "occupiers". This is being spearheaded by the Iraqis themselves.
