This is how these Satan loving goats repay us for not leveling and incinerating the "Triangle of Death". Maybe we should rethink the "Hearts and Mind" strategy in this area.

Grape shot hopefully?

Good morning.
"- there will be no more surrenders of any sort -"

I doubt that surrender has been much of an option from the beginning. It never is when dealing with uncivilized people and Communists.

What do people not understand? because we are invading their lands they suddenly came up with the idea "down with America"? This has been going on for decades! These islamofascists need to be taught a lesson and that does not include winning the hearts and minds. they want to deal in fear and torture, well guess what, we can give it right back 100 times. You catch an insurgent, you do NOT put them i jail. You tie them up to th back of a Hummer and you pull them through Ramadi. Wanna play with the big boys, you better be able to take what you are handed.

BINGO!!!

[albyjimc2]

Hearts and minds yes. You put a bullet in the heart to instill fear i the mind. Let the bodies hit the sand.

They probably were beheaded. But before that, in typical Islamic style, their private parts were cut off and stuffed down their throats, and then a dagger was stuck below the chin and rammed up into the mouth, thus securing the jaw. I know that this is gruesome visual, but it has always been done in Israel to captured IDF troops, and it shows you the kind of animals that we are dealing with. That is why the British, in the battle of Khyber Pass in Afghanistan would dig graves for the arabs and throw the bodies in, and then pour pigs blood over it--(the only thing that rattles these bastards.) I am not suggesting that we do this, but it shows that it is not a modern problem.

He said the United States should have paid a ransom for the two soldiers from money seized from Saddam Hussein.

Was any ransom demanded?

[areafiftyone]

Not that I know of. The Islamic website was going to come back with more info in a couple of days but looks like they were thinking of maybe doing a ransom for some dead bodies. I guess they didn't figure our soldiers finding the bodies so quickly before they could ask for ransom.

The photo is of an execution of mutinous indigenous troops.

Sepoy Mutiny, India, 1857

[TET1968]

Ok, I got the info myself:

"An Execution in Britsh India" Painting by Vassili Verestchagin (Russian).


"As part of his article accompanying the wood engraving of the painting when it was published in Harper’s Weekly on November 17, 1888, [Harper’s Weekly art critic Clarence Cook] wrote:
So with the other picture, the shooting of the Sepoys, Verestchagin does not say that this particular scene is an incident of the great mutiny. Shooting from guns is the only way, he says, that 60,000 soldiers in a strong country can keep in awe 250,000,000 natives. Superstition must be utilized. The natives do not fear to die, but they fear to die in any way that destroys the identity of the body. They cannot enter heaven blown limb from limb. Therefore this is the way to touch their souls with dreadful awe, and the English, says our artist, have always blown from guns, blow from guns today, and will blow from guns as long as India is held."

These guys were worth more alive than dead. Their bodies were found close to where they were abducted. It is highly likely they fought to the death and were subsequently mutilated by their adversaries.

When will the American people get angry over acts like this?

I'll tell you when. They will get angry when there is a major attack in the U.S. 3,000 dead on 9/11 wasn't enough -- it will have to be more like 3 million dead. Only then will these liberal idiots wake the %$#@ up and realize the kind of subhumans we're dealing with over there.

"He said the United States should have paid a ransom for the two soldiers from money seized from Saddam Hussein."

Lesson #1, you can never buy peace.
Lesson #2, Now war was ever won by being nice.

[D1X1E]

I guess MacKenzie forgot about the 8,000 U.S. Soldiers looking for his son....

It was his nephew, possibly the father wouldnt say anything derogatory so media went to next in line. But no matter, you are correct, there were several thousand searching for them.

[TET1968]

Thanks.

[Bringbackthedraft]

Oooops "NO"

[spectre]

"heard this a.m. that they were beheaded...."

It would stand to reason, since it's being reported that the new replacement for Zarquwi did the killings himself.

Waiting for Conformation.

The freakin Uncle is all over the TV this morning and the papers - don't tell me he doesn't have a leftist agenda!

[albyjimc2]

You're right, they sure do get angry. Their precious bubble was popped for a few months and then the libs helped build a new one. What do we need, a couple thousand dead women and children every few months to prove this is no joke? "We have nothing to fear from anyone." Yeah, because men like the ones tortured are keeping you safe in your free country. Drink your lattes and listen to you iPods whil men are blown to pieces and say we have nothing to fear.

the sad part is, if we get hit again, it will be blamed o Bush for invading Iraq. we made them mad. Terrorism? Oh, Bush stirred that pot up himself and made everyone angry with us.

EARTH TO LIBERLAS. THESE ARE THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN KIDNAPPING, TORTURING, AND BOMBING US FOR DECADES!!! I KNOW IT IS ODD TO BLAME ANYONE BUT BUSH, BUT THE COFFEE HAS BEEN BREWING FOR A LONG TIME NOW AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY YOU DON'T SMELL IT!

[PzLdr]

A pity we don't have a Waffen SS to turn the killers over to.
