I would have thought they should say "murdered" rather than "executed" in these cases.

Take no prisoners. Kill them all until they stand down. It's the only way. Kill them without mercy. That's all.

I'm very curious to see if the young woman from WV in among them. She was part of this group of soldiers, but never showed up on their video horror show.

Her name is Army Pfc. Jessica Lynch, 19, Palestine, W.Va.

Cute little blonde, and I shudder to think what these animals did or are doing to her.

There were 5 prisoners shown. I wonder if perhaps they 'spared' Jessica and Army Spc. Shoshana Johnson, 30, Fort Bliss, Texas.

I agree...if they don't surrender, kill them. Boy! This is going to really piss off everyone over there now!

I was hoping & praying that the missing would just be missing, but I also knew they were probably caught & killed.

God Bless Them!

Seems like you shouldn't be able to post for another 50 minutes, or thereabouts.

The outrages of the past week have led me to discover my inner rage. It's so powerful right now that I can hardly think straight.

God Bless the families and friends of these heroes. We will never forget.

There was just the one woman on the video, correct? The 30-year-old mom?

It's unclear whether the other two women in that 507th Maintenance Company (Pfc. Jessica Lynch & Pfc. Lori Piestewa) aside from the one shown (Spc. Shoshana Johnson) were captured or killed during the initial confrontation (or executed later).
