But, he said: "We are besieged here now. It is a great emotional victory, but bad strategy. It is very easy now for the Americans to come and kill us all."

Uh huh. Sounds like a plan to me.

What, are prisoners falling off of conveyor belts due to being placed thereon in such a manner that half their bulk is hanging over the side? ;-)

I worked at an airport and know EXACTLY what you mean!

I finished reading the book Generation Kill about the Marine Reccon unit that spearheaded the advance in to Iraq. The writer describes how the Iraqis used foreign volunteers as cannon fodder against us. They hardly knew how to fire a weapon. I bet quite a few of them have baught the farm trying to take the AK from safe to fire.

What a waste of human life...no self respecting religion glorifies death like Islam. Only a cult would.

"The world is convinced that we people of Falluja are happy to kill the innocents, that's not true, even when we execute collaborators and people working for the Americans, I feel sad for them and sometimes cry, but this is a war."

Oh we feel the same about you too, except for the sadness and crying part.

It is so much easier to handle terrorists when you are not hobbled by PC-addled hand-wringers.

So, a mighty mujahedeen turns to a journalist and asks, "Do you know how to make these things work?" Speechless. Just speechless.

The journalist shoulda said here, let me show you. *RAT*A*TAT*A*TAT*

It is the plan. Every idiot jihadi killed there will not live to climb in to a buss, a train, or plane to bomb inocent people in Iraq, Israel, London or New York.

"The amir told me: "All we want is the Americans to leave, and then everything will be fine, the Kurds will stop talking about seceding from Iraq, the Shias will stop talking about settling scores with Sunnis and each province will elect a council and these councils will elect a president."

This was total BS. They are fighting to keep freedom from this country and paid by the surrounding countries to see that it fails so their people will not revolt and demand democracy.

Give them what they want if all want a body bag. This is not a holy war, we are not trying to convert them or deny their faith, yet they attempt to deny us ours.

Kill'em all and let them go to their beloved allah *spit*

"They are not Muslims?"

"No."

The young man looked with puzzlement at the other fighter and said: "But then, why don't we kill them?"

Complete twilight zone, outer limit WHACKO'S.

"We can't do that now..."


This journalist is in line for the Darwin Award.

Well anyway...exactly how would they "liberate Iraq" when they're the oppresive opposition? Man, those "insurgents" are always on target!

Let's martyr them!

Can you image what World War II would have been like if CNN had been embedded with the troops landing on Omaha Beach?

We lost 1000 men and women in one year in Iraq...we lost that much in the first 60 minutes of the Normandy landings. 6000 in one day. Over 270,000 in the whole war. The MSM would have had a cow.

..."Do you know how to make these things work?"

..."shouting "Allahu Akbar" every time they heard explosions, believing it would divert the missiles away."

..."a fighter whose task is to explode himself"

..."It is a great emotional victory, but bad strategy. It is very easy now for the Americans to come and kill us all."

These people are psychotic barbarians.

It's nice to have a report from the media which proves in the words of our enemies what I have been saying about the wisdom and conduct of the Iraq war.

The original mission was accomplished, the war which was a continuation of the first Gulf War in terms of international law--destroying the Ba'athist regime which had violated the terms of the Gulf War armistice--ended in our complete victory. "Mission Accomplished" as the banner said.

The present fighting proves what I have said repeatedly. Iraq (and Fallujah in particular) have become the 21st century analogue of the Aegean island the Venetians held for 19 years against the Turks: the place jihadis go to die.

As one of our officers in Iraq said 'In war you always prefer away games to home games.'
