This is what you get when you try to fight a "politically correct" war.

Release the "Pendleton Eight!"

Semper Fi, Kelly

[an amused spectator]

The discovery of the bodies dealt a new setback to U.S. efforts to seize the momentum against al-Qaida in Iraq after killing its leader, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, in a June 7 airstrike.

Yeah, I imagine it's going to be like the setback dealt to American forces in the Ardennes in late 1944, when they discovered the massacre at Malmedy.

There's going to be fewer prisoners for a while...

[ncountylee]

Will MSM, the democrats and the peace groups be outraged at the inhumane treatment of our finest?

Bull Friggin' s&it this is a set back !!!

This only makes our devil dogs that much meaner - if they too are let off the leash (as are the Pendleton 8)

[lexington minuteman 1775]

I hope this means we can really kick butt now!

[vetsvette]

It Sickens Me!!

It's very reminiscent of Vietnam as our senior military leaders and political class try to mollify the New york Times; leftist politicians; and sundry anti-American leftists here and abroad by playing patty-cake with Islamofascists. The reality is that these anit-American forces, including the NY Slime, hate America and everything she stands for; hate the American military; hate capitalism; and, hate freedom -- in that order. As for the terrorists, they actually admire them and hope for their eventual victory. There's no placating these folks, it's a fool's errand and attempts to do so simply play into the hands of the more dangerous enemy.

It's time to take the gloves off -- declare marshall law; demand that the Iraqi Government and citizenry declare their support to our mutual objectives and deal with those that don't so declare with firm, deadly resolve. The mass of the American public will support this -- they understand the dangers of terrorism and don't countenance "patty-cake" as well as they do tough justice. They have little in common with Pinch Sultsberger and don't really care what he editorializes.

If the President wants to improve his ratings -- all he needs to do is start getting tough with this war! Americans love a winner and can't stand wusses. Honor these brave young men and get the lead out W!!

Release the "Pendleton Eight!"

BTW - Lock up that wacko Murtha!

[river rat]

A Freeper has been saying for MONTHS --- "Fight like WWII, end like WWII"

"Fight like Vietnam, end like Vietnam"...

Time to take the gloves off, and devastate large areas of the Sunni Triangle of Death....

Let the death be THEIRS...
Deliver death to the cult of death on a large enough scale to satisfy their appetite.....

Semper Fi

[bnelson44]

I have never, ever even heard of an enemy like this one.

[neutrino]

This is what you get when you try to fight a "politically correct" war.

Exactly. The troops can't even defend themselves.

[fanfan]

The discovery of the bodies dealt a new setback to U.S. efforts......

That is Bravo Sierra.

The troops are incredible!

I hate the press.

New American Policy:

SSS.

Or maybe SMSS.

Murtha be damned, Specter be damned, PMSNBCCNNCBSABC be damned.

Gloves OFF.

[bnelson44]

Why do they need DNA testing?

[359Henrie]

Its time to go Roman on them.

[jwalsh07]

It's past time for the ROE to be changed and for SOG's to be given free reign to hunt and kill every last jihadist bastard they can find.

[MonroeDNA]

"The director of the Iraqi Defense Ministry's operation room, Maj. Gen. Abdul-Aziz Mohammed, said the bodies showed signs of having been tortured. "With great regret, they were killed in a barbaric way," he said."

Combined with the fact that they had to use DNA testing, my guess is that they were beheaded, and the heads not found.

I am so angry I cannot see straight.

[caisson71]

I'm waiting for the outcry from all those human rights, humane treatment, Red Cross types. Hearing none, they can all go straight to h-ll. No more prosecutions for soldiers.marines doing their jobs in this war. I'm reading Warlord right now.
You can bet there will be no more Americans even thinking about being captured. Shoot first....and last.

[popdonnelly]

"dealt a new setback to U.S. efforts to seize the momentum"

The AP is full of it. The deaths of two soldiers will not change the momentum of the war. The AP reporter is trying to change the momentum.

[Gunslingr3]

This is what you get when you try to fight a "politically correct" war.

Actually, it's simply war. Are you still expecting parades?

[fanfan]

Ping!
