200 U.S. contractors surrounded by jihadists in Iraq

[Genoa]

Some evacuated, some not. But evidently not overlooked.

[Only1choice____Freedom]

Well at least they know not to kill them. With Obama at the helm, they can trade 200 of them for 1000 terrorists.

He could clean out Gitmo with that.

[DCBryan1]

or stupid auto-correct as you are typing under stress?

[No Socialist]

No worries. Obama follows US tradition of leaving no man behind. I’m sure he’ll help these people if he helped a traitor and deserter.

[Stormdog]

“Blow these terrorists to smithereens as they drive their way to Baghdad or surround a forward base.”

My question is not so much why we don’t do it as much as why the Iraqis don’t do it. Don’t they have air capabilities or armor for that matter?

The bad guys may have now added humvees to their equipment inventory but they are no match for a tank.

[Genoa]

I’ll buy that. Just skeptical of Corsi.

[DCBryan1]

I fell physically sick at the thought those guys are going to get slaughtered and then we get to see pics of their headless corpses later.

And the added insult is they will be adorned on captured/leased US-made HUMVEES and MRAPs the Iraqis abandoned. Gawd I hate Obama.

What does the DoS refer to in that plea for rescue stand for, you imagine?

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

Maybe Iran will save them! Imagine that!

[Genoa]

Dept. of State?

[tomkat]

Dateline yesterday, says evacuated.

Actually, it doesn't:

Twelve U.S. personnel who were stationed at Balad were the first to be evacuated. Several hundred American contractors are still waiting to leave.

Where is our leader?

[Liberty Valance]

It’s either true ... or a trap to lure OP teams into the area. We need more intel.

[Gen.Blather]

“You’re assuming my friend was stationed in Iraq.”

Actually, I said, “Arab” countries just in case she wasn’t. I’m surprised these guys are fighting as they must have seized weapons to do so. GD employees were mostly non-combatant types, but they’ll know how to man a tank. The fact they are fighting will increase their chances of being beheaded instead of ransomed. Christians who fight are frowned on. (Er...beheaded.) Isn’t it wonderful dealing with denizens of the 9th century?

[Georgia Girl 2]

Yes, I think its seriously getting close to “that time” Everyday thinkgs are spiraling further out of control.

At some point either the congress is going to have to invoke Ammendment 25 or the good citizens of the US are going to do it for them.

[COBOL2Java]

Where is our leader?

At the 19th hole with Reggie.

[Genoa]

Roger that. But it indicates that they are being attended to, or so one hopes.

[A CA Guy]

Well, where is the well financed conservative organization based on Constitutional principles that is the base for growing new candidates?

Everything takes money, especially with the press being most all Democrats.
Why not also start protesting news organizations for being biased to the left?

[txhurl]

So what’s the threat to evacuation? Couple hundred manpads with 10K ft range? Can’t land anything at the base anymore?

[McGruff]
