Wow, a MSM article that didn't throw in a gratuitous reference to the Marine who shot the Iraqi possum in self defense earlier this week.

It would be great if the news medias would start calling these people what they are, terrorists, not insurgents, or militias...

Are they burning all copies of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution?

Otherwise this may leak out to the general public. ;)

They aren't "people" either. The terrorists have long since given up their membership in the humnan race.

Agreed. We should hunt them down like dogs and take no prisoners.

Damn. Almost couldn't finish my lunch behind reading this.

Anyone who can defend this barbarism is equal to these barbarians.

Yeah, it would have been tough. It sort of makes the case for that brave Marine giving one of these dirt bags a new a**hole right in the forehead.

This reminds me of some of the stuff the VC pulled in Nam when the young men would hide rather than serve with them. The MSM wopuldn't report on that either.

I read an Iraqi blog somewhere that explained how the terrorists got obedience from Fallujah citizens in one neighborhood.

They apparently called the locals out to the street then picked a man at random. They slit his belly open and attached his intestines to the trailer hitch on a truck....

"It's like 'Silence of the Lambs,'" said Sgt. Elbar Navarro, a platoon commander for Kilo Company. "These people were real sickos."

That sums it up.

Well I wouldn't exactly call it MSM, not till I see it in Time or Usnews or one of the alphabet-clowns. It will be interesting to see if this ever makes it to the NYTimes.

Masked gunmen burned family-owned stores that sold music and movies, chanting as they marched down the street that listening to anything but the Quran was "un-Islamic," according to Fallujah residents interviewed last week. The militiamen drove the store owners around the city in trucks and then flogged them in public, witnesses said.

It should be pointed out that this has NEVER been a part of Iraqi culture, so clearly this is imported. It sounds more like Afghanistan than Iraq, which leads me to believe there are a lot more foreign elements in the "resistance" than we are being told about.

Religion of Peace Alert!

But they're not bad people, they just disagree with us, according to Chris Matthews. And they have slightly different methods of communicating disagreement. We shake our heads. They remove them.

Every Freeper, please e-mail this article to all of your liberal friends and co-workers. Let's do our damnest to get this article in front of the american people. If the f***ing networks would show these shops of horrors, than maybe so many liberals would finally get some perspective and appreciate what our fighting men are doing over there.

I would argue that even most Sunnis, who have a soft spot for america-hatred, are aghast by the barbarians in their midst.
