Capture all Ba'athists. Get the senior-most 500 or so. Get a bunch of wood. Crucify one at each kilometer marker on the road between Kuwait and Baghdad.

It worked for the Romans.

These forces will be notified of impending doom and then destroyed with massive overkill:) Anyone in this forum who expects the Iraqi's who know they will lose to show restraint should now cast off the illusion. Iraqi's rape, murder and otherwise humiliate their conquests.... It is a sad fact and one more exposure of why this regime had to be destroyed.

It seems that disinformation like that would only serve to strengthen the resolve of the intended recipient, in this case the United States.

Whether disinfo or not, the Iraqi leaders have miscalculated yet again. This will only strengthen our resolve, not weaken it. How ignorant can they be?

Fox News says there fewer than 10 soldiers missing. They need our prayers.

Even many leftists don't want this to happen. Sympathy for Iraq would hit rock bottom. I hope this report is BS.

Even the F*cking Nazis didn't execute American soldiers, except for at Malmedy by the SS during the Battle of the Bulge.

We are dealing with animal Ba'athist war criminals. No quarter.

NBC Russert went to Jim Miklazsewski (sp) who said a tape was played on Al Jazeera TV showing the soldiers being executed.....no other news source has carried this detail.

NBC's " Meet The Press" just touched on this subject again, like everyone knows the story.

I don't think they would execute prisoners if they had them.

I think they would use them for propaganda purposes.

Needs to be confirmed. If it is then find out where it happened and "clear" the area. The keep on with the plan.
