Yes, the tracking system is a good idea, with precise GPS capabilities.

Cross an IED with an IUD. Call it “The Buddy System”.

Would give a nice new meaning to “Your A$$ IS Mine(d)”

There is no way in hell we aren’t knocking these guys out and putting an RFID chip in their bloodstream or somewhere it’ll stay put. No way.

"Prior to release, detainees also make a pledge to an Iraqi judge swearing to maintain peace and good conduct in the future," a task force news release read.

What? Shouldn't this pledge be enough to satisfy our troops? /s

Ya know, Girl, that part about counseling and "exposure to works, education and religious programs" made me laugh out loud.

"Ohhhh, yes, Abu, the Prophet say you may lie to deceive the infidel and paradise awaits the martyr."

I'm betting they didn't sing "Jesus loves you" or "kumbayah."

It has been a long day for me. But after reading your post:

I think there is an implication they would "weasel" out on their pledge. Which makes "The Buddy System" that much more fun. Just push a button and POP!, goes the weasel.
