Fox News: CENTCOM announces Iraqi plans to bomb Iraqi cities, blame US

Fox News | April 3, 2003

[Timesink]

Mike Tobin reporting, CENTCOM says "reliable information" that areas in Shi'ite neighborhoods are rigged to blow up, and the explosions will be falsely blamed on the US.

[GAGOPSWEEPTOVICTORY]

Not shocked at all that they would use this illegal tactic to appeal to the Arab street.

[seeker41]

SOBs, they'll probably commit all kinds of atrocities to get the arabs all stirred up.

[MEG33]

They will try anything.

[Timesink]

That's all Tobin said, and he only had that much because he was handed a press release after he was already on the air. Might be a little while until we get any more details.

[Timesink]

I swear, if we need to test an EMP device, just aim the little bugger at Al-Jazeera's HQ. That would do more to help us win the propaganda war than a million troops ever could.

Although I don't really understand why we care what they think. They're going to resent us anyway, war or no war.

[goldstategop]

Hopefully they'll be too stupid to blow them til the last minute.

[GAGOPSWEEPTOVICTORY]

The Iraqis booted Al Jihadi out of Baghad yesterday. They will probably not be back on the air out of there until the coalition marches in. How ironic is that?

[truth_seeker]

We'll have contingency plans. Lies will be countered with facts, and the national leaders will get the picture.

Whatever happens, the arab-street guys will scowl, howl, shake their fists and look real angry, with their five o'clock shadows. A few will blow themselves up. They can't go to Afghanistan, as before.

Nobody said this epoch series of battles (in WWIV) will be easy, or pretty, or quick. We will prevail.

[seeker41]

You must sleep as little as I do. I just can't make myself leave, today is an important day in this war.

[Im Your Huckleberry]

It doesn't take much to "get the Arabs stirred up".

They sit around waiting for reasons to be "stirred up".

Let 'em be "stirred up". They're going to be "stirred up" no matter what we do.

Might as well take on all of 'em while were at it, and while we have the army there to fight these barbarians in filthy nightshirts.

I say we deal with all our problems at the same time, right there, right now. Might as well. We're going to have to fight all these Islamokazi b@stards someday, might as well be now, before half their states have nukes.

[goldstategop]

LOL! And how many of the Jihadists have shown up in Baghdad to fight our Marines?

[seeker41]

I know, we should march right into syria after baghdad. You're right the arabs live stirred up, they are the most emotional and irrational people ever. You say day they say night-crazy.

[AntiGuv]

There have been a lot of reports along these lines (oil wells, bridges, refineries, dams, WMD, massacres in Allied uniforms) none of which have successfully come to pass. So, I won't get too concerned over this latest one unless the Iraqis actually succeed at pulling this off.

[AFPhys]

how many of the Jihadists have shown up in Baghdad to fight our Marines?

NOT ENOUGH

[JoJo Gunn]

Had to do a double take. I thought for a minute y'all were talking about Leftists with their hair-trigger bladders.

[nopardons]

Right you are ! LOL

Send 'em ALL in, so we can shoot pigs in pokes.

[beaversmom]

You say day they say night-crazy.

If Saddam had a third son, his name would be Yousayday and he would be crazy just like the other two. I'm really tired--better go to bed when I start making jokes that bad.

[Im Your Huckleberry]

If I woke up tomorrow and Bush announced he was going to pull all our forces out, and then use nukes to completely annihilate Syria, Iraq, Iran, and Saudi Arabia, I wouldn't even bat an eye.

I'd yawn, have my coffee, scratch my head a little, and then turn on the T.V. to watch the light show.

Wouldn't bother me a bit.

The people are immersed in a demonic religion that preaches horrendous violence against anyone who refuses to follow the 7th century, barbaric, moon-god-worshipping, death cult that they call a "religion".

Their violence is typically at homicidal levels, and they are almost pathologically cruel, vicious and barbaric. Their religion not only encourages all forms of barbarism, but actively instigates them to go out and spread their violence and mayhem amongst every other culture. Their religion and their culture is anathema to western democracy. It's like matter and anti-matter - they cannot exist in the same space.

Whether anyone wants to admit it, or not, right now, this is going to eventually come down to us vs. the Islamic world. It's gonna happen. There's no avoiding it.

Might as well be now, while our troops are there.
