Roadside bomb in western Iraq.

Oh yeah, FREEDOM!!!

Yeah, they'll have their "freedom" soon.

Freedom to elect a caliph.

1 terrorist killed - 10 born. Iraq is a school for terrorists now, don't you see that?

I'm scared about international terrorism because those terrorists then goes to Chechnya and other regions of Russia.

PS I regret for the Marines. Terrible death.

"PS: Can't we leave the politics aside? No one wants our boys dead"

Don't underestimate the dark side of the left. I was in college in the late 60s and know how badly they wanted American GIs to die and die horribly. I remember how they laughed and cheered when Siagon fell.

Never underestimate the dark side of the left...and they only have one side!

"One dictator is better than many terrorists."

Stalin would agree with you.

[texianyankee]

This is indeed sickening. Yesterday evening on the MSM, I heard about 7 of our snipers getting ambushed while positioning themselves on building tops, but I hadnt heard about this higher number of fatalities.

[Dont_Tread_On_Me_888]

Even if true, after all this time, the Iraqis should have an army and should be doing this themselves by now.

You say they are "waging war". Sorry, but that is not true. They are waging a politically correct "kill them softly" campaign. Since day one, they have fought with one hand tied behind their back and the other hand restrained politically.

If the Marines were truly "waging war" this thing would have been over with two years ago.

Just ask any Marine (like two of my nephews over there who tell me this).

Youn still watch Imus? Gag.

[MEG33]

I think that was a humvee from yesterday's bomb attack. I may be looking at the wrong picture.

[leadpenny]

Youn still checked the thread.

[csvset]

That link that Meg33 provided shows the destroyed vehicle on a ramp.

That pic is from the other day. A Hummvee was about to enter or exit a tunnel.

[Heatseeker]

Right now on the front page of the Washington Post web site, under this story, is a story entitled "GIs' Brutality Documented". I took a look and there is nothing new there so I'm not even going to link to such trash.

[ElPatriota]

Damn!... I DON'T LIKE THIS.

I only hope the president understands what is going on. Yes I support the president and yes I support the principle of giving IRAQ a shot at democracy, etc, etc. But everything HAS A LIMIT. I hope they get their sh** together soon, or they will have to deal with it themselves. I am getting tired of this.

[verity]

"Youn still checked the thread."

Good for Youn. :-)

[leadpenny]

I see that now.

[SMARTY]

I actually wish the terrorists had a flag and a country which would claim them.

As it is, fighting with IED's against their own and against the coalition does not permit us to attach the shame and utter unmanly cowardice of such tactics to them directly.

Just the same, we know where they are and their tactics are not proudly owned by any free nation or by any honorable person.

[sargunner]

Condolences going out for the families and friends of these brave souls. This is not a good day. There will be better ones to come, of that I am certain.

[kedr]

Saddam ruled by terror..It just wasn't reported in the news every day

It doesn't matter what Saddam was ruled by and how many his citizens were killed. You don't worry about African dictators, do you? Now Iraq is anarchist country and international school of terrorism.
And that war is endless like ours in Chechnya.

[ChuckShick]

Unfortunately, I made a trip over to DUmmie land to see their take. They are subhuman. I won't even repeat what they've been saying about the President or this incident.

[Allegra]

Now Iraq is anarchist country and international school of terrorism.

Stop me, MEG. Please help!
