If we only wanted to HUMILIATE IRAQIS we would have just left Saddam in power, he was doing a far better job at humiliating all ARABS than anything the US could ever do...

ANd they wonder why the Arab world is effectively the trailer park trash of the globe.

Is it just me or does anyone else think that we should have made the Sunni Triangle a parking lot?

"This is good. If they ask me, I will join the resistance. The Americans have to die," said Ali Qais, 15. "They are just here to steal our oil."

Good thing that no one in America would ever say anything like that. That might give aid and comfort to the enemy.

Reuters is on the same journalistic bias level as Al-Jazeera, except Al-Jazeera has more credibility.

WHATEVER the degree of truth, the percentage of such . . . we need to do our best to get on top of such attitude shifts.

WE MUST MANAGE the attitudes of the populace VERY successfully regardless of how tricky and difficult.

"I saw them pushing their hands onto one of the Americans' chest. They must have died.

This crap pisses me off. If they think we're trying to humiliate them, then I'd run these little bastards through one of Saddam's shredders.

Probably voted for algore.

slowly but surely the americans are losing the iraqi youth...soon the young will go the way of the palestinian youth and the americans will be in the same boat as the IDF...bush needs to declare victory now, saddam has been removed, and bring the troops home...

Looks to Me like a 10,15 & 18 year old needs to be on the hit list for the next raids and this time DON'T let them go!!!!!!!!!!!1

Stupid raghead punks go to the land of 72 virgins.

This article prompts the questions:

With the education,indoctrination,intimidation,etc imposed upon these teens,what would be expected?

While in school(?) what were the teens taught?

When Saddam was in power( 35 years),were they able to make comparable comments?

[P-Marlowe]

After each truck or tank or helicopter is brought down we should wait until the crowd gathers to celebrate and then drop a MOAB on the site. After a few of those, that would effectively eliminate any more public celebrations at the site of American casualties.

These public celebrations stir hope in these people who think that we are weak. They respect power. That is why Saddam was able to keep his people mollified. They were terrified. They need to be terrified. Of us.

I'm struck by how similar are the desires of the terrorist supporting teens and the democrat party leadership in America. The demonRat party is the terrorists' strongest ally in the world-wide war against terrosim of Islamicists.

Looks like there gettign CBS news on their TVs.

..."Patience, patience Baghdad."

Telling of the strategy.

If Washington doubts there is Iraqi public support for guerrillas killing its troops, it should consider the teenagers who happily watched American blood spill Wednesday.

Gee, Reuters, you take one anecdotal episode, from a region that supported Saddam, and use to to gauge public opinion for the entire country. Yeah, you're really objective here...

[AxelPaulsenJr]

Time to pull the troops out and nuke the damned place.

[Paradox]

You will ALWAYS find people who are against the coalition. Sh*t, right down the street here were I work (Miami), if there was a cop killed in a traffic accident, I bet I could find people standing around watching who think that the cop got what he deserved..

I think the fact is that the majority of Iraqi's dont feel this way. But you can always count on the media to find those who do, and quote them.

[desertcry]

Yeah, reuters a media by the terrorists, and for the terroists.

[TheDon]

The Loyalists said the same thing about the "Yankee Doodle Dandies". So what. They are on the wrong side of history.
