Iraqi Foreign Minister: American Soldiers Captured in Iraq to Be Burnt or Beheaded

They could still overwhelm and capture a spec ops team. Happened during Gulf War 1.

Yes, Showtime has been showing the movie, Bravo Two Zero, about a Brit team captured during GW1. They were tortured after their capture.

Many of those Iraqi prisoners you want to do that to don't deserve it. Especially if they have surrendered.

Naji Sabri has less than 35 hours before his life starts to change permanently. With any luck his fellow citizens will get him before we do.

Twas the night before Jihad
and all through the land
Not a muslim was stirring
Not even saddam

The enslaved women and suicide bombers
were all snuggled in bed
Not realizing that in minutes
They all would be dead

When out in the sky their arose such a clatter
That Saddam flew to his window to see what was the matter
Up in the sky, almost too far too tell
Flew a B1 bomber, carrying a nuclear hell

The glow of the bomb on the desert below
Gave the lustre of daylight to the objects below
When what to his wondering eyes did appear
But a big mushroom cloud as his eyes filled with tears

With a little old pilot, so lively and quick
Saddam knew in a moment that he was in deep s--t
So rapid, like eagles, the Americans flew
The pilot, he swore, must be a jew

Now, Bush! Now, Cheyney, and condolezza Rice!
It was all over for Saddam this nuclear night.
To the heart of Baghdad, right above the palace wall
We nuked that saddam, we toasted them all

As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
So the remnants of baghdad rose to the sky
All the houses, and many mosques too
Sucked up into the cloud and away they all flew

He woke up sweating, all quiet this night
Not a bomber in the sky, not a jew in site
He ran to the phone, as his bladder went empty
Better to let those inspectors in then lose his whole country.

American Soldiers Captured in Iraq to Be Burnt or Beheaded

This violates the Geneva Convention. Will France, Russia, or Germany denounce Iraq?

He said that the Iraqi people 'elected Mr Hussein as their leader'

The result of a loaded AK-47 pointed at the temple of the voters.

Ivan,

I'd prefer this promise in response:

"If even one captured soldier dies this way, you will be stripped naked, bound hand and foot, and summarily handed over to the wives, husbands, and children of those Iraqi citizens you have tortured and butchered. Once they have finished, whatever remains will be buried in a pig sty."

"Strange first post. What's your opinion on this bit of information."

Plain and simple?

A taunting post.

A specialty of the spineless and little school children.

[thermodynamics]

Is this like the "Mother of all wars" threat from the Gulf War? Let them continue to run their mouths. It makes the Frogs and Germans look more assinine!

[Let's Roll]

Sabri will personally rue the day he made that statement. He'd better start running now.

Rosbalt....is the largest news agency in Northwestern Russia.....looks like a reliable enough source..

[metesky]

Hit and run newbie.

[finnman69]

I know. I am waiting for this poster to actually say something. I smell a troll.

[sheik yerbouty]

Sounds like a plan!

[SAJ]

Wogs? The wogs begin, as I'm sure Ivan would agree, at Calais.

[PhilipFreneau]

He said that the Iraqi people 'elected Mr Hussein as their leader'. . .

Unbelievable. LOL.

What's your opinion on this bit of information.

Considering the source is TASS or some other Russian news agency, such things always have to be taken with a grain of salt.

They say that football teams are told never to give the other side a reason for getting keyed up. Believe the same applies to war.

Either one of two possibilities - assuming the story is true (one does have to consider the source): first, this is rhetoric and meant to "intimidate" the American army (not exactly a tactic that has been shown to work through the ages, but it's been tried again and again), or second, these nutcases in Baghdad are serious, which would mean they think can actually win the war. The latter case means they're delusional, thus further underscoring our need to take them out.
