QFN ==== QUAGMIRE-FREE NEWS


Exclusive to FReerepublic
PICTURES YOU MAY NEVER SEE IN THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA


========= Najaf =========

BEHIND ENEMY LINES

In Najaf, central Iraq, with terrorists of Muqtada al-Sadr and Iran, the Mahdis,
hidden in a cemetery in the terrorist-controlled city,
after the Najaf Shiites viciously broke yet another of their false 'cease fires'.


In Najaf, briefly rest after they violated their false 'cease fire'.


In Najaf, Shiite terrorists at the funeral of other terrorists
killed after the Shiites viciously broke yet another of their false truce.


In Najaf, Baghdad, Iraq, at the hospital,
American heroes offer supplies to Iraqi doctors to treat patients
at al Sheala hospital, even after the Mahdi terrorists attacked American
and Coalition soldiers breaking the "truce".


========= Basra =========

In Basra, Shiite terrorists at the funeral of other terrorists
killed after the Basra Shiites viciously broke yet another of their false 'cease fires'.


In Basra, British Coalition liberators of Iraq on patrol.


========= Sadr City =========

In Baghdad, Iraq, a plume of smoke rise during clashes with al-Mahdi
terrorists.


BEHIND ENEMY LINES

In Sadr City, weapons hot after the Baghdad Shiites broke their false 'cease fire'.


In Sadr City, the terrorists carry a rear rotor of a U.S. Army Kiowa reconnaissance helicopter.
Why not destroy them after they crash?
Why not destroy the terrorists, too?


BREAKING: SHIITE TERRORISTS HATE PRESIDENT BUSH

In Sadr City, in the terrorists keep,
the graffiti pleads in Arabic, 'No more Bush'.
Sounds like good reason enough for four more years.


========= Sharpless 140 =========

THREE NEWBIE STARS COMING OUT

Sharpless 140
Three young, massive stars are emerging
from this natal cloud of dust and gas.
The picture offers a penetrating infrared view of the emission nebula
cataloged as Sharpless 140 which lies about 3,000 light-years
away toward the constellation Cepheus.

Guess I should put what that is......... History enthusiasts reenact fighting on a battle field in the village of Kresice, near the central Bohemian town of Benesov, on August 7, 2004. Several Czech historical fencing groups gathered here to perform a battle from the 15th century as a part of summer activities during the vacation time. Picture taken August 7. REUTERS/Petr Josek

I've read on FR that the "insurgents" must put-up their shoes as collateral at the amory to receive a weapon.

If the Islamofascists had their way, we'd all live in this Armageddon.

If you look at those pictures you can see that some of the faces are Iraqi, but there are an awful lot of foreign looking faces there too. The guy in the black turban does NOT look Iraqi to me.

I doubt the European colonial powers were ever fooled by requested 'cease fires.' They understood these primitives, that the primitives' culture did not recognize what Westerners consider 'honor.' We are foolish to treat these goons as though they were civilized. Our men should not die for such foolishness.

U.S. Marines patrol a street during fighting in Najaf, August 8, 2004. The clashes between U.S. troops and men loyal to Shi'ite Muslim cleric Moqtada al-Sadr have killed hundreds of people and challenged the authority of Prime Minister Iyad Allawi. Iraq (news - web sites)'s interim prime minister ordered Shi'ite fighters to lay down their weapons and leave Najaf on Sunday, but the militiamen fortified their positions around an ancient cemetery with mines.
