Iraqi authorities hanged 27 convicted "terrorists" on Wednesday, the interior ministry announced.

"Twenty-seven terrorists were hanged today in Baghdad. Most of them were Iraqis," interior ministry spokesman Abdul Karim Khalaf told AFP.

The authorities reinstated the death penalty which was abolished after the US-led invasion of March 2003.

Instead of shipping those 14 to Cuba, move them into this line-up.

"Twenty-seven terrorists were hanged today in Baghdad. Most of them were Iraqis," interior ministry spokesman Abdul Karim Khalaf told AFP.

Which means, essentially, that we and/or the Iraqis have operations going in Iran.

So Iraq hung people who were not Iraqi but came to Iraq to commit acts of terror, huh?

I'd say that's ABUNDANTLY REASSONABLE, and that we should learn from Iraq's example.

If the Iraqis apprehend any of the Western journalists who are meeting with terrorists, would anyone have a problem if the Iraqi government sentenced them to death as enemies of the state?

No, it means Iranians and others have operations going on in Iraq.

Well, that's a start. Iraq is a country that doesn't need the electric chair; it needs electric bleachers. Everyone involved in IEDs, VBIEDs, and any other bombings that cause mass murder should be hung! The sooner the Iraqi state that was duly elected by the Iraqi people asserts its monopoly on power and destroys those who prey on the weak and the innocent the sooner Coalition forces can leave with their mission accomplished.

Nice use of quotation marks. How about:

"Iraqi" "authorities" "hanged" 27 "convicted" "terrorists" on Wednesday, the "interior ministry" announced.

The left tried to claim that executing jihadists is "what they want". That is gives them martyrdom.

Funny how they had no problem with letting Timothy McVeigh attain his martyrdom.
