For the Jihadis or the Marines, lol!
"The snipers were able to confirm two enemies killed in action."
Music to my ears.
Maybe both.
They might be saying the exact same thing about American Democrats.
The ark is one hundred and forty-feet long; the dwelling is ninety feet long. The idea of the Indians is to drop softly and secretly from the arched sapling to the dwelling as the ark creeps along under it at the rate of a mile an hour, and butcher the family. It will take the ark a minute and a half to pass under. It will take the ninety-foot dwelling a minute to pass under. Now, then, what did the six Indians do? It would take you thirty years to guess, and even then you would have to give it up, I believe. Therefore, I will tell you what the Indians did. Their chief, a person of quite extraordinary intellect for a Cooper Indian, warily watched the canal-boat as it squeezed along under him and when he had got his calculations fined down to exactly the right shade, as he judge, he let go and dropped. And missed the boat! That is actually what he did. He missed the house, and landed in he stern of the scow. It was not much of a fall, yet it knocked him silly. He lay there unconscious. If the house had been ninety-seven feet long he would have made the trip. The error lay in the construction of the house. Cooper was no architect.There still remained in the roost five Indians. The boat has passed under and is now out of their reach. Let me explain what the five did -- you would not be able to reason it out for yourself. No. 1 jumped for the boat, but fell in the water astern of it. Then No. 2 jumped for the boat, but fell in the water still further astern of it. Then No. 3 jumped for the boat, and fell a good way astern of it. Then No. 4 jumped for the boat, and fell in the water away astern. Then even No. 5 made a jump for the boat -- for he was Cooper Indian. In that matter of intellect, the difference between a Cooper Indian and the Indian that stands in front of the cigar-shop is not spacious. The scow episode is really a sublime burst of invention; but it does not thrill, because the inaccuracy of details throw a sort of air of fictitiousness and general improbability over it. This comes of Cooper's inadequacy as observer.
No, I hope not. Let them think their buddies somehow exploded their bomb in error, and return again and again. While some may view the snipers as cold-blooded, place that in perspective to the number of people maimed or killed by the IEDs, which seems more cold-blooded to me.
The answer to this is obviously "no". Ifilm.com has some interviews with captured terror-idiots. It demonstrates clearly that they are cretins.
The Marines named it....Michigan Ave....i have no idea why....it is the main street thru town.....my son spent last winter in "Ramadi Inn",Iraq....
> Marines tend to be particularly cold-blooded for reasons we will not go into
I am curious though.
sweet!
Snipers do Gods work.
>Michigan Ave
LOL!
"Don't these morons understand by now what they're up against? The Marines have been in Anbar for two years, and shouldn't the insurgents understand by now what happens when they pull up into a historic IED route to repeat their stuff which may have worked the first time? "
I think the person doesn`t understand that many of these insurgents don`t have a clue to what is going on. Many of them are fresh from Syria , Jordan , etc.. Or Iraqis sent to these areas to do these things. Most if not all haven`t seen any real newsprint, or TV news of what is actually going on.
Its the country squirrel in the big city senario.
If the head terrorist told these wannabe jihadists what is actually going on, then these poor saps would probably go back home and join back with the crowd of protestors yelling and screaming to kill America.
heeheehee... I love those pics on your your homepage, btw! :-)
When you care enough to send the very best ...
Those who do not know history are doomed to repeat it...
