Very articulate -- and right on the money. Those poor families -- this idiot is just trying to "scoop" the others. Hyena.

GEN. BROOKS: I don't want to comment too specifically on her condition. The good news is she's alive. She's in coalition control and receiving appropriate medical attention and care and screening right now. And for her privacy, I won't go any further into that.
As to who was holding her, the regime was holding her. The regime clearly had done this. It was regime forces that had been in there. Indications are they were paramilitaries, but we don't know exactly who. They'd apparently moved most of them out before we arrived to get in, although, as I mentioned, there were buildings outside of the Saddam Hospital, where we received fire -- or the assault force received fire -- during the night.
We did unfortunately also find the remains of 11 persons who are unidentified at this point. Two of the persons were inside of a morgue within the hospital building, and the other nine were outside in a grave area inside the community.
Our coalition forces were escorted to those locations by someone who was taken into custody during the assault, and the locations were pointed out by them. At this point we're doing additional forensic examination and medical examination to determine who they might be. We don't know at this point and don't have any further comment on who it is at the current time.

I recently found out that one of the executed and murdered POWs is a friend of the family.
So, as you can imagine, I am FAR from being "saddened" by the 3rd ID knocking on that bastard's door!
To: MattGarrett
You and the families have my sympathies and prayers.

Timesink? Do you know Centcom's website? Do they even have one?

I'm with you all the way.
This calls for us to get completely hardcore and medieval on these b@st@rds. And I'm willing to go all the way.
Supposedly Black Jack Pershing had 50 Islamokazis in the Phillipines rounded up, and shot with bullets coated in pigs blood. He let a couple of them go to tell the rest of them.
Didn't have any problems with the Islamokazis in the Phillipines for almost fifty years.
This country needs to throw off all this PC nonsense and get medieval on these m-f, and pronto.
To: MattGarrett
I am terribly sorry for your loss -- and his family's. My prayers are with them...
