Roadside bomb in western Iraq.
butt out
hmmm.. too bad the new Iraqi constitution will enshrine Islamic law and make women and religious minorities second class citizens.. Hey, maybe will can kill the entire country?? Then they'll really have FREEDOM!!!
Your time should be getting short....hubby is fine...rumor is he'll be back in your neighborhood after the 1st of the year...
Bad things happen in a war zone. I do not believe it was indicated that the contractor's behavior was causal.
Eagle Eye was over there for a couple of years doing a job and reporting back to FR. He's not anti-American by any stretch of the imagination, or anti-military or anti-Marine. He has reported simply on what he has seen and experienced.
Not the best of timing to bring up the negative experiences regarding the Marines I will grant you...and it is understandable why Marines and their kin would take exception to it on this thread...but that does not mean what he said was not accurate, just out of place on this thread perhaps.
In his post 450 he said it was not his intent to "go after the marines". I know for a fact that if the SHTF he would welcome them there covering his six.
Believe it or not, you are on the same side and probably agree on 95% of issues is my guess. The real enemy wants to see us all dead.
Just my two cents...I'm out.
Are you overcompensating for a particularly small piece of skin?
Story I'm getting is that the snipers, and the 14 the next day were set up by iraqi traitors.
He's a plant. Wants disruption, doubt and division.
If that is the case, they have to find those people and deal quickly and ruthlessly with them...with all involved in any way in planning and setting it up.
Si, senor. Its being worked.
We'd best make the types of examples of them that we should have (IMHO) made of Fallujah. Then the next sunni community that goes all out in supporting the terrorists, make that example of them. It's past time. IMHO, they MUST be pacified, all of the ones who continue to fight and support the fighters.
No disagreement from me.
Thanks ... eventually I figured it out.
I am literally SICKENED by the anti-war sentiment on this thread.
Do NOT belittle the sacrifice of our brave troops by your petty politics!
We are at WAR! And these brave men died in a just and noble cause. Using threads like this to say "I told you so" like mean little children is disgusting.
Sorry for the rant. THANK you, chgomac, and PRAYERS for our brave troops who know that they are fighting for our safety and our freedom.
In your dreams, you pathetic Bushbot.
I THINK I had you confused with another Bush guy.
Has it been determined that there is no to negligible valuable intelligence to be gathered from those who are getting caught? I thought the entire reason we are not killing those caught red-handed on the spot is to continue developing our intelligence profile. If that has changed, then this needs to be brought up on the civilian side, and those of us on the home front need to do our job to pressure the government to take off the kid gloves with respect to this issue. And deflect what CAIR says about it.
Accepted...
AMEN to you!
We have over 12,000 of these guys in Iraqi and coalition jails now. What happens to them after they get information out of them? Eventually most will be turned loose and they will be back out on the streets planting more IEDs. We also need to send a message to these people, eventually we will catch you and there won't be any mercy shown. They don't have any respect for us because they know we are too easy and worried about our image in the world.
What's the difference...........you've seen one, you've seen us all........right??
