Here's a sickening sample of the regular news programming most of the Muslim world sees everyday:

The war against terror is not going to be easy. Especially when most of the Arab/Muslim civilians regard hooded murderers who our troops kill as "martyrs."

And yet, oddly, the militant Islamists won't chalk this up to "the will of Allah," as they do when they murder thousands of civilians in a single attack.

Now prepare yourselves for the leftist media backlash.

I'm sure within the next few weeks the leftist media will not be able to stop talking about how the Coalition demolished the buildings in Fallujah, the people's homes, the power infrastructure, the lack of Iraqi police forces in Fallujah.

This of course without any positive responses from the citizens of Fallujah on how they're happy to have the terrorists gone and they're still alive.

Leaflets written in Arabic being dropped over Baghdad:

"Due to the recent increase in martyrs going to their 72 virgins, Paradise is now experiencing a severe shortage of virgins. The abundance in available virgins began to dwindle with heavy traffic coming in from Afghanistan beginning in November 2001 and has now reached the crisis level.

Therefore, in lieu of virgins, Paradise will now be providing goats to newly arrived martyrs. We cannot guarantee the virginity status of these goats.

Thank you for your patience during this time of inconvenience."

Just kidding. ;-)

MSM's first Take: The heavily defended area will be a bloodbath for our troops...with upwards of a couple thousand insurgents who KNOW THEIR CITY, by gosh.

MSM's 2nd Take: All of the bad guys escaped.

TRUTH: 1600 Insurgents killed. The MSM is shown again to be the lying, anti-troop media-whores that they are.

Even though it is a policy departure from FREE REPUBLIC'S RULES, maybe, in these cases, Jim R. and the mods will allow us to put "terrorists" in parentheses, right after incidents of "insurgents" in standard news headlines for stories we post here.

For example, w478, your post thread title would now read:

"As many as 1,600 insurgents (terrorists) in Fallujah were killed...."

Well I like the old Israeli standard. One Israeli= 100 Palestinians. We're up over 4000 now so 400,000 is a lot of Islamofascist. You think they would get the point by then.

Wounded soldiers describe 'reckles' Fallujah rebels
Mon Nov 15 2004 09:30:56 ET

LANDSTUHL, Germany - Wounded US soldiers being treated at the military hospital here on Monday gave a graphic account of the battle for the rebel Iraqi stronghold of Fallujah.

US-led forces said on Monday they had taken almost complete control of the city after a week-long battle but were still hunting for pockets of diehard rebels.

The handful of Marines and soldiers who met the press were flown to Landstuhl in southwest Germany, which is the largest US military medical facility outside the United States, last week.

They described the rebel fighters as young, disorganised and often reckless but well-armed.

"You recognise them easily. They wear masks, they carry weapons, they move in small squads," said 22-year-old soldier Kris Clinkscales, who suffered an arm injury from an exploding shell.

"Civilians are usually wearing traditional gowns, they lift their hands when they see you."

He said he was sure he had not shot at civilians because they were easy to identify. "There were bodies on the street, but only insurgents," he said.

Clinkscales is among the 275 wounded on the US side according to figures given by commanders in Baghdad, although a spokeswoman for the hospital said that up to Monday it had treated 419 injured servicemen, mostly from the Fallujah offensive, and that 46 more were due to arrive later that day.

Thirty eight US soldiers have been killed in the assault.

Clinkscales, who arrived at the hospital on Saturday, described the rebel fighters' approach as "reckless", "especially the young ones, aged 18 to 20. They were quite disorganised."

Travis Schafer, a 20-year-old Marine, who injured a hand when a shell exploded, said he was sure the rebels were prepared to sacrifice everything.

"These guys are ready to fight to the death," he told the press conference. "I was surprised by the weapons they had," he added, describing seeing "loads of RPGs (rocket-propelled grenade launchers) and machine guns".

And Schafer said the battle had been conducted from street to street.

"This is a rooftop to rooftop kind of fight. You see the snipers jumping from one roof to another."

Ryan Chapman, a 22-year-old Marine, was hit above the left eye by a sniper's bullet, but escaped with a fractured skull.

"People keep on telling me that I'm lucky," he said. "I don't mind being lucky."

Despite his brush with death, Chapman was keen to return to fight in Iraq.

"I want to go back. It kills me when I see the news, when I think of all my buddies back there."

More than 1,200 rebels have been killed in the battle, the US military said on Monday.

P.S. Mighty nice of the terrorists to identify themselves for the killing.

My In-Laws just returned from a vacation in Mexico. From the news they were getting, they thought we were loosing Fallujah. All they heard about was the American death count.

They were surprised to learn it was a complete and smashing victory for the U.S.

But this can't be true/

The NY Slimes has been telling us how the brave Iraqi patriots (really Islamofascist Terrorists) have been holding our Marines off!

Great news! Apparently many of these Islamo scumbags who are no longer wasting oxygen came from Syria, Iran and other Islamo hell holes.

Is there any doubt in your mind that if John Kerry had been elected these 1,600 insurgents/terrorist would still be alive to kill Americans!

I think what is going on should tell us that we are VERY serious about cleaning up this country.
