FIREFIGHT on the TIGRIS! Republican Guard vs Marines

BBC | 4/10/03 | BBC

[We Happy Few]

How about a new stanza for the Marine Corps Anthem:

From the caves of Tora Bora
To the mighty Euphrates
We will fights our country's battles, etc.

[you get the idea -- please try your hand at some good verse]

[Robert DeLong]

They have just now brought in the MOAB's, especially for Tikrit. I sure as heck wouldn't want to be there right now.

>>The thing that I cant over, Is why are they called the special republican guards, and the Elite republican guards, what does that mean?,


I think the Special Republican Guards ride in the short BMP.

At AMAZON for under $12.00.

They're only Special RG because they have "that Special Odor".

[epluribus_2]

MSNBC is calling RG sources "Iraq Republican Party". Got they just don't get it.

I think you are right. When the world realizes that the pali's are "occupied" more by saddam-like socialist pigs than ever by israelis, we might get somewhere in the arab/israeli dispute. The israeli arabs need a liberation day too, with a head from a statue of arafat being dragged through the streets with young pali's dancing on his memory. The best they could have ever hoped for from PLO/PLA/Hamas is an Iraq-Lite. (Syria?)

that's such BS. a small plane would be lit up by so many radars from awacs/global hawk/F15-16-18/B1-2's that the pilots' gonads would be so fried he could qualify to be a CNN news anchor.

or the Russians, or perhaps - Chinese!?!

Beautiful girl break.

She's 29 months now. This picture was taken when she was 24 months. She doesn't really understand conservative vs liberal yet but she does know how to praise the Lord!

Unfortunately for me she always wants to "see the boys". I am so doomed.

I believe the other group was the Palestinians ( or paleSTAINians now, after they attempted to battle tanks with rocks) and some Syrians.

I saw other independent reports of Palestinians mixed in the with the Jordanians and whatnot.

They were fixed up pretty quick. The 3ID made travel arrangements to help them meet Allah right away.

Who knows what the Russian GDB/Mafia thugs er excuse me Military Advisors are doing there.

If that plane did take off and safely leave the area, we let it go. If so it was probably loaded with woman and children of the Iraqi thugs.
