US marines pressing an offensive in this Iraqi town west of Baghdad bombed a mosque in the center of the town Wednesday and killed up to 40 insurgents inside, a marine officer said.
The attack came from a jet aircraft at a high angle to minimize the impact, the officer said.
"We wanted to kill the people inside," said Lieutenant Colonel Brennan Byrne.

Now is the time to show them we have brass; screw with us, you're dead. That is all they respect.

To the islamic guerrillas, mosques represent a "safe zone" because of the PC of the west. It is way past the time for us to get rid of this way of thinking...

Here we go?
No, there THEY go.
About time we're taking the gloves off. In the past, these wackos were able to find a "safe haven" inside their mosques. Eff em. If they're going to cause trouble, they shouldn't be safe anywhere.

This is the only message that will penetrate the minds of these animals. I hope the Marines will continue to get permission to do the job they're trained for. Go get 'em!

Make fertilizer out of the bones of these camel humpers and use it to grow food for pigs. Kill them all.
Now for my meds.

They won't "like" us till they respect us.
If we show weakness (by way of a PC attitude), they will take advantage of it.
