Correct me if I am wrong, but aren't the ROK Marines about the last people on Earth you want pissed off at you?
FWIW--
Freedom cannot win if Truth remains a hostage to political correctness. We cannot win the War on Terror if we continue to mid-identify the enemy...
Yes there are..."Commence bombing!"
Since this is all these cowardly sons of satan understand, violence must be met with violence.
Simple: An Arab is a Muslim is an Arab is a Muslim is an......
Muslim's who aren't Arab, may well be a small piece loving bunch of pacifists-but I doubt it!
Take out the log from your own eye, before you deal with the speck in mine.
Well, the "clerics" who said they said they saw him alive, said he was in Baghdad (see thread). They also found the body in Baghdad -- which most likely means he was killed there. (The difficulties inherent in smuggling a decapitated body out of Fallujah all the way to Baghdad rule out his being killed there....)
OK, "smart guy?"
There they go again. CNN is saying a S. Korean man has been "executed." Not murdered. Executed like they do at the end of a legal process.
Please keep us posted on the sentiment in the east. I am curious if the average citizen there will get angry or wobbly.
>>6,000 instead of 3,000 <<
Agree. On Brian Sussman's show on KSFO last night, a caller with experience with the ROK military forces called in. He said that they are BAD m-f'ers, and that these AQ types are going to be quite sorry that they screwed with them.
If we're "at war" with Terrorists, vs. with a sovereign Government/State/Nation, then the Geneva Conventions don't strictly apply. That's how we are justifying Gitmo for terrorists, right? And as far as I can tell, we are NOT at war with Iraq, so I think it's well past time to take the gloves off with these so-called "insurgents."
But I'm no lawyer, so I could be completely wrong about this.
"Don't ever piss-off the ROKs!"
That was true at one time, but not any more (unfortunately). The present administration in S. Korea is pretty limp-wristed, and it gets all upset when some S.K. students start to vent and riot. There will be a very visible "march" demanding that S.K. withdraw whatever forces it has in Iraq , and pledge to not send any more. The only two countries that have any balls when dealing with these misfits are Israel and Russia.
Agreed.
ROK Marines have no political correctness .... so yes. They are going to kill a lot of people for this.
>>Executed like they do at the end of a legal process.
Perhaps the terrorists had a mullah proclaim him an infidel and worthy of beheading. I believe under Islamic 'law' that would be a suitable sentence.
So if one is a moral relativist (like the media) then it really was just an execution since the South Korean man was guilty of being an infidel.
CNN is in bed with the terrorists in my opinion, so such a rationalization would not surprise me.
Propaganda to make it look like the innocent is really a prisoner of war, dressing him to look like one.
Believe me, newbie, the Mods are well aware of you and your bombastic ranting and personal attacks.
Suggestion: step back, WATCH and READ and maybe then you'll learn some manners.
And trust me, whenever I see you attacking in that manner I will not hesitate to report you.
Sura 8:12Remember thy Lord inspired the angels (with the message): "I am with you: give firmness to the Believers: I will instill terror into the hearts of the Unbelievers: smite ye above their necks and smite all their finger-tips off them."
