Glad to know these bastards have been killed yesterday
While no group of any people is “all alike” I have been troubled by that video. It’s a real challenge to overcome the revulsion one feels after watching. That said, I agree with you - whether they are all like that or not does not justify a cowardly truck bomb being placed in their midst.
Stay safe!
This attack may change their minds. Since it occurred in an area where there are very few, if any, Americans at all, it may give the Iraqis who want us out a taste of what would happen if we just packed up and left.
Neither will I but it wasn't AQ that stoned that poor girl to death. That was rank and file members of the Religion of Peace.

Not all Yazidis practice that barbaric crap. I get tired of the "tarring with the same brush" syndrome you see so often here on FR.
I vehemently do not condone al Qaeda'a actions.
Every car bomb is a conduit directly to the America-haters to apply more pressure to declare the war loss.
Granted. But enough of them are apparently willing to tolerate it so that large numbers of their brethren don't seem to fear the consequences of stoning a young girl to death publicly.

That would die down a lot faster if a few village elders and clan chiefs made it clear that the old ways are gone and that these mohamedens had better start living up to that 'peaceful religion' claptrap they keep telling me about.

I never said you did and I certainly don't either.
The only thing that's justified is speedy arrest, trials, convictions, and hangings of everyone involved in that poor girls death.

Source of that information?
Why is it odd that you haven’t seen video of this? Do you actually think journalists all over the country and not holed up in the Green Zone.
Terrorists can do this any time they want regardless how seriously 95% of the population is really tired of this. It would not be a valid indicator of how the war is going.
I'm far too buoyant to get bogged down in some pointless argument about semantics.
I made my point and I made it clearly. Those who want to skew my remarks just for the sake of argument, have at it. I'm not going to play.
I'm taking a break from the war.
All the wars.
I will now return to my levity and disengagement.
Hoist a pint or two for me.
I bid you a pleasant day.

I have seen your page before. I’m sorry my French Friend. I put my foot in my mouth!
It would be non-alcoholic from Kuwait.
It will have to wait until I have ventured a little farther west.
I thought you were heading for London? Oh well, where ever you are I have no doubt that that is the place to be.
Have a safe trip.

I am. Can't get there directly from Iraq. I had to stay here for 24-48 hours due to the visa process. On my way out in less than 24 hours.
Woo hooo!
Have fun!
Best,

I’m sure they’d love to have their country back to themselves, however, I’m sure they also understand that they have a lot more work to do before they can take that on. They don’t hate America; they just want their lives returned to some semblance of normal.
