PRISONERS OF WAR With The Animals
BlueStarBase.org ^ | March 24, 2003 | Barbara Stanley

There are some in this country who believe the liberation of Iraq is a war against the innocent people of Iraq. As if the war against the innocents in Iraq hasn’t already been going on for decades under Saddam’s sub-human reign. They believe, or perhaps, they feel that the United States, Great Britain, Australia and others of the Coalition of the Willing are the evil in this battle with good. I admit, I have no explanation for this lapse in factual conclusion other than, perhaps, it’s time they readjust their meds.

American troops have been besieged by enemy surrenders, even back before the current battle began. I have even heard, from a military man, that when the Iraqis were attacking the Kurds in the North and US jets flew overhead, those Saddam troops dropped their weapons and tried to surrender to the planes. Hmm. Not a hard one to figure: after the Gulf War, how the Iraqi enemy captured were treated was the most humane way possible and this word got around.

The media have refused to air anything other than an occasional still picture of the recent atrocity committed against us by the sub-humans. The media tell us, it’s too raw and disgusting.

My uncle was captured in Italy in WWII and told he me years ago that the Gestapo conducted a short arm inspection of the POWs and executed the ones that were circumcised, presumably Jews. My Swedish-Irish (100 percent American) uncle survived.

With regard to the POWs on the Al Jizeera tape on has to ask, "why were only some of the prisoners executed?" The pants were obviously pulled down. It is known that the Iraqi TV has told the Iraqi people that the are being invaded by Americans and Israelis.

If the Red Cross can get to the surviving POWs they must follow this line of investigation. Why is it that the American public can't be shown violence and sex without Hollywood getting the proceeds?

That's an interesting angle... I doubt over half of our soldiers are uncircumcised, but maybe they assumed automatically that blacks and women were not Jews.

I heard a former POW on Hannity today, and his story of treatment by the Iraqi's was chilling, and an outrage. I can't say these people are animals as I do not wish to insult animals.

You don't that that the assassins thought that the Americans/Israelis were muslims, do you? Even if they were they would be traitors and subject to execution.

I'm not saying they would kill people because they were circumsized, but because the circumcision would entail their possible Jewishness.

It would be easier to just look at their dog tags than pull down their pants. At least when I was in Religious preference was one of the items on them.

Like the Iraqi thugs that believe that Israelis who are supposedly masquerading as Americans will have information betraying them on their supposedly fake dog tags.

The point is that if they were circumcised would not tell whether they are Jewish, Christian, Moslem or just a non believing American. I can think of a couple other more likely reasons for their pants having been unzipped and pulled down than checking to see if they're Jewish. How about as a means making escape harder, searching for hidden items, humiliation, torture, sexual mutilation of those that were dead while the others were watching.


How about you telling me how finding out they are circumcised would prove they are Jewish in a culture that is not Jewish but also practices Circumcision.

I will grant that they maybe killing those that are circumcised because in their minds they are either Jewish or heretics to Islam belief. They may not even think of the fact that a lot of non Jewish or Moslem Americans are circumcised.

Hopefully the Red Cross will inquire and let us know.
