Memo to all
THIS IS WAR AND THE ONLY RULES IS: WIN IT
Anything else is irrelevant

[Sender]

After seeing this, and all the liberal uproar over prisoner abuse, I say NO MORE PRISONERS.

From now on there should be only two groups of people in Iraq: friendly and dead.

Wasn't it Roosevelt that said of the Muslims in the Middle East; "It's not important that they don't like us. It is important that they respect us."

That message isn't sinking in to many, yet. The libs are in denial.

Remember from the 9-11 Commission over 2 weeks ago: They declared war on us long before we declared war on them.

Well, we still haven't declared a full war. Too much PC is ongoing. One report, for example, stated that troops in Iraq guarding prisoners are using rubber bullets. Another report, after the pix scandal, guard can no longer put hoods over prisoners' heads. Kennedy and al-Sadr call it a VietNam. On and on and on...

chip, chip, chip, chip...PC is chipping away and we are losing this war.

I am afraid you are right, and I don't think the Americans or westerners are capable, for the most part, of supporting the kind of retaliation this butchery deserves.

Look at it from the perspective of these masqued scum. They slowly butcher this guy, film it, distrinute it, and they get immediate world-wide coverage, they intensify anti-war sentiment at home, and they demoralize other civilians over there.

Conclusion? Nothing succeeds like success and they repeat the demonstration.

The only suitable, rational response is one we are incapable of taking - drawing by lot ten Muslim terrorists, publicly beheading them, and burying the corpses in a pigskin with a warning that we will escalate our payback with each additonal western hostage captured or killed.
Next time - twenty Muslim terrorists feel the knife.

The other thing we should be doing, along with Israel, and every one else who is terrorized by these scum is to retaliate against their families.

If a terrorist or suicide bomber can be identified, and their families located, they should be captured, beheaded, and buried in pigskins. In a tribal society in which allegience to the extended family and tribe is more important than one's own survival, such tactics will reap rewards.

None of this is very pretty and it goes against western sensibilities of fairness and justice. However, it is the ONLY successful way to deal with people who think like these.

But we won't do it. We will continue to try to play the nice guy with a bunch of sub-human scum and in the long run - they will win because of it.

People like the Mongols, the Turks, the Romans successfully dealt with similar situations and the only way we can equally succeed is to emulate their ferocity.

The above statement is the only rules to follow in war. It is kill or be killed. Which do you prefer?
