We once developed a warhead that, while leaving buildings and structures largely intact, stripped the clothes from all life forms within the blast radius and left womens panties on their heads. It was deemed too horrible for world acceptance and scrapped.

Despicable. The ability of the human mind to conceive of evil acts is astounding.

Could be climactic battle of the last few months, and FoxNews cuts to the Kobe Bryant trial.

You mean, FoxNews cuts to footage of Kobe walking into court, hearing the charges, and saying "Not Guilty," and then leaving. It's truly fascinating stuff.

Harrigan back on again. Bradleys driving through buildings followed by soldiers and Special Forces. House to house fighting.

Now Cavuto is apologizing for us taking out the mosque. Any "apology" should be that we help rebuild the mosque after killing the terrorists inside.

Back at ya, fatima!

Steve Harrigan:
 
"Tonight is the climactic battle...a major offensive underway - KIOWAs and Apaches - Bradleys - not just the 1st AD, getting some help...series of about 4 or 5 buildings...a hotel..one of the buildings is a mosque...local mosque...where gunman have been firing on US troops for the last week.
 
(we have) Intel - pics of gunmen going in and out of mosque...some building wired and booby-trapped (loaded with weapons).
 
We've seen Bradleys fire at buildings to set them on fire...Bradleys drive through walls to allow Special Forces access to buildings...we hear small arms fire..(as Soldiers go room to room),...
 
One concern...from Soldiers ...Shiites keep coming....even thought they are wiped out...they keep coming...US forces are betting it is not going to go on for long, and (want to crush this gang)...so city can get back to normal...
 
Some of those flames behind me...one of those buildings (on a fire) is a local mosque (worried about local population reaction)...
 
Some of the explosions behind me...from ordinance..perhaps, booby-traps.
 
We've played our hand here.
 
We're going to get back inside our Bradley fighting vehicle...the concern is...some of that ordinance (may be a BIG explosion...) we're going to high-tail it out of here."

That decision was made after the weapon was tested on a convention of the NOW.

They did the right thing, too.

Shalom.

It is vital to the nation that we ensure Kobe has once again successfully exited his SUV.
