This also shows that Saddam is a grease stain on a ruined wall. As awful as he is none of the senior leadership would execute US PWs and then show the bodies on television to rub our faces in it.
They are evil, crazy and stupid, but not suicidal.
We need to get in Baghdad now with Airborne and clean this lot out before they do worse, because if they did this, they'll do anything.

I hate to say it, but execution sounds like a blessing as opposed to the torture these barbarians are capable of.

Not to bust your chops, but it clearly says "NBC Meet the Press" on the source line.

Yeah, let's drop thousands of men into the middle of Baghdad so that we can engage in street fighting. Brilliant.

Face the Nation just showed a tape of an American Sergeant from Aljezera (sp?). Not sure how authentic.

CBS' (De)Face the Nation just showed other Al-Jazeera propaganda of "captured American soldiers," one appearing to give his name and rank in English... Sec'y Rumsfeld is guest, no doubt CBS did this to attempt to embarass...

In the warped mind of the "Arab street", the murder of 'human shields' dressed in US military garb would result in street parties throughout the mideast. Iraq would appear to be repelling the "Zionist" enablers from the west.
Expect massive disinformation to continue from Iraq. This mornings fish kill is but the initial salvo.
To: samuel_adams_us
Iraqis care nothing for Geneva convention. They are more likely to torture and beat them and parade them before a crowd in front of cameras. Just killing a prisoner is too antiseptic for them. We don't nuke a country because they kill prisoners.We will win God keep our troops.

I believe your rage should be vented against the real villains here, the anti-war hypocrites and pop-culture totalitarians without whose support and sympathy the Ba'athist regime would have perished long ago. Their lies nurture terrorism and incite the killing of Americans. The Hollywood/Madison Avenue Axis and its foreign branches, Reuters and Al-Jazeera, are the real enemy. These monsters are accessible, and they are guilty as sin. Liberate Iraq, liberate America.
To: tomahawk
Is it possible that the Iraqis dressed up some prisoners from their own jails, in American uniforms, and killed them (or had they lay down in such a way as to look like they had been killed)? I realize this is wishful thinking, but I hold out hope anyway.
To: lavrenti
... if they did this, they'll do anything. Yes, lavrenti.... like a cop-killer, these "people" must be eliminated asap using overwhelming force.
Iraqi citizens know to avoid military people and places. Send in the MOAB. American dollars are easier to come by than American lives.
To: tomahawk
Update: Americans were captured at Nassariyah and were executed.
A 3d Armored Infantry unit doing reconstruction work got lost, got captured alive, and were executed. 7-8 lying on a floor shot to death execution style on the floor of a building.
Interviews were taken of American troops, including a woman.
WAR CRIMES. WAR CRIMES. WAR CRIMES.
Destroy the enemy to a man.

I agree Altura, they already have the world's liberals on their side I don't think the govt would sponsor the executions. It would damage the world sympathy caude.
Certain military elements, with no mind for global propaganda, might though
To: tomahawk; All
Morning, all. Do we know that these soldiers were actually captured or are missing? I wouldn't have thought about this yesterday morning but are any of these guys missing "muslims?"

Trying to get into the mind of a psycho is not easy.
