It would be fitting if Iraq built a memorial to those who died so they could be free.
It depresses me that humans can be so savage. These soldiers were just boys.
I dispair that anyone could think of torturing to death a 19yo PFC as honourable 'revenge'.
They're only outraged when someone crosses the line and puts panties on a terrorist's head. Conversely, there is no line for terrorists. Terrorists can do anything and not cross one.
But for Americans I guess the line is drawn at panties. Put panties on a terrorist's head, or do anything worse, and the left is going to scream.
The silence is deafening .......
OK, any one surprised by this silence, raise your hand.
I don't see any hands?
..." they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside ....Oh wait- forget it, that was the American scum."
"I'm sure Murtha will be out the rest of week on TV decrying the brutality of the bastards who did this"
You forgot the </sarc/off> switch.....
Their silence...
Expect nothing from Amnesty International, their Secretary General is a muslim - and the United Nations is nothing but a tool of the islamist block:

U.N. Human Rights Commission meeting
Islamic United Nations representatives blocked an attempt to have the world body condemn killing in the name of religion.
The International Humanist and Ethical Union said it submitted the request to the U.N. Human Rights Commission in Geneva in response to moves by Islamic clerics to legitimize the current wave of terror attacks.
IHEU representative David Littman tried to deliver a prepared text in the names of three international NGOs – the Association for World Education, the Association of World Citizens and the IHEU – but was blocked by the "heavy-handed intervention" of Islamic representatives of the panel.
Littman said that after repeated interruptions, he was unable to complete his speech.
The Muslims members said they saw the text as an attack on Islam.
The IHEU argued Littman's speech was a report on recent critical comment on Islamist extremism by a number of notable Muslim writers.
The intent was for the U.N. Human Rights Commission "to condemn calls to kill, to terrorize or to use violence in the name of God or any religion."
The text referred to recent decisions by high-ranking Muslim clerics to confirm that those who carry out suicide bombings remain Muslims and cannot be treated as apostates.
A Saudi cleric, for example, issued a fatwa saying that innocent Britons were a legitimate target for terrorist action. Also, Yusuf al-Qaradawi, dean of the College of Sharia and Islamic Studies at Qatar University, who has visited Britain, said terror attacks are permissible.
Roy Brown, president of IHEU, said the censorship is "part and parcel of the refusal by the Islamic representatives at the U.N. to condemn the suicide bombers, or to accept any criticism of those who kill innocent people in the name of God."

For eight years now, a UN committee has labored to draft a "comprehensive convention on international terrorism." It has been stalled since day one on the issue of "defining" terrorism. But what is the mystery? At bottom everyone understands what terrorism is: the deliberate targeting of civilians. The Islamic Conference, however, has insisted that terrorism must be defined not by the nature of the act but by its purpose. In this view, any act done in the cause of "national liberation," no matter how bestial or how random or defenseless the victims, cannot be considered terrorism.

And I guess that's why the MSM continues to describe the murdering, disgusting scum, the terrorists that gravitate to Iraq, as 'insurgents' or 'militants' - or, as Micheal Moore described them, 'freedom fighters' - anything but what they are. MUSLIM TERRORISTS...who, incidently, in the last five months have killed some five thousand Iraqi civilians.
These so called "human rights" groups revel in the coverage they receive from the liberals in the print & television media whenever they attack the U.S. military for any perceived or imagined injustice to enemy combatants.
In this instance, as in others, when the true primitive brutality of the terrorists becomes painfully clear they say little or nothing ... simply because the media wouldn't cover it even if they were inclined to make a statement ... which of course they're not. In the perverted thought process of liberals, America is bad terrorism is good .... after all terrorists are really poor oppressed people trying to win their version of religious freedom.
All the left and medias hard work on Hadithia(sp)was for nothing....this brutal killing just muted that story as an issue.
People who are offereing Aid and Comfort to the Enemy.
This will be minimized and swept under the rug by the MSM, while a contiuous series of red herrings are thrown at Jane Soccer Mom. The ACLU wants access to the poor souls held against their will at Gitmo, a bunch of Marines went postal at Haditha, on-going trials of American soldiers in court because they didn't consultant with the enemy's attorneys before defending themselves, etc., etc.
Menchacha's family was on LKL last night, I watched a few minutes of it. They (sister/cousin) stated that the Uncle who is blaming this atrocity on Bush DOES NOT SPEAK FOR THE FAMILY. LKL and the other guy (who used to work for CBS, and whose name I cannot remember) tried like heck to get these people to condemn Bush -- they would NOT do so. They said they were proud of their family member. Later on, Ms. Jane Harmen, democrat CA, came on and blamed the death of these two soldiers on Bush's policies. It was beyond disgusting. Making it ever more clear, that american's can never again give power to a party who considers its own country the enemy, rather than understanding the terrorism we face.
It is times like this that I really miss flamethrowers. I would love to start turning these Muslim scum into human candles and see how much they enjoy being the object of the barbaric treatment they so enjoy giving to others.
