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.

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!

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