American dead butchered 'like sheep'(Time for Fallujah to be taken off the map)

Jubilant crowds dragged the burnt and mutilated bodies of four Americans through the streets of Fallujah yesterday amid some of the most horrific scenes witnessed since the invasion of Iraq.

The four were driving along the main road when they were caught in a vicious crossfire from Iraqis wearing headscarves. The spot is a favourite site for attacks in the pro-Saddam Hussein town.

Yesterday, the corpses were dismembered before parts were hung from a green iron bridge over the Euphrates river, witnesses said. Other remains were hung from an electricity pole. People chanted: "We sacrifice our blood and souls for Islam."

One resident, Abdul Aziz Mohammed, said: "The people of Fallujah hanged some of the bodies on the old bridge like slaughtered sheep."

Beneath the bodies, a man held a printed sign with a skull and crossbones and the phrase: "Fallujah is the cemetery for Americans."

"I saw the people pull one of the dead bodies out of the car and pour [fuel oil] over it. Then they set the body ablaze," said Omar Khalil, an off-duty Iraqi police officer. "The people were praising God for their good fortune in killing Americans." The body was then dragged down the road by the feet.

Neither American soldiers nor Iraqi police were seen in the area after the attack, although an American aircraft flew low over the scene, scattering the crowd.

Hours after the attack hundreds still danced around the burning wreck of a Mitsubishi Pajero and Toyota Landcruiser chanting: "Death, death to the Americans." Some were said to be preparing an ambush for American forces if they returned to recover the corpses.

See what the press will not show. Its graphic. But then what else would it be?

O'Reilly calls for the leveling of Fallujah.

[Fitzcarraldo]

time for some wild, hungry lions to be let loose in that town.

Nuke em till they glow.

WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE?!

"The people were praising God for their good fortune in killing Americans."

I wonder who they would be praising if the place was carpet bombed for a week.

[rageaholic]

A staged operation in order to produce a withdrawl, based on Clinton's precident in Somalia.

They don't EVEN know how dead they're gonna be... Sonsabitches.

Bombing these people back to the Stone Age would advance their society by thousands of years. Circle the town, permit the women and children to leave. Put every male's head on a pike and bury the remains in bacon fat. Send the genitalia to Syria, Iran and North Korea with a note about all those disappointed virgins in the afterlife.

Dear Pres. Bush,

The next time we have word of something like this, it makes sense to lob a 155 round into the middle of that scene.

It just might save an American life, and it will surely take out those who are attacking.

And...it will be a reminder.

Sincerely,

Xzins

We should just roll about 200 M1-A1's into town and blast anything that even twitches. Then go door to door and kill everyone in those pictures.

[ItisaReligionofPeace]

Why not level New York or L.A. whenever a wild pack of thugs lets loose on some tourist or a woman?

[Frank_Discussion]

Because we police our own in our sities. Falluja is not performing that service for itself. They are acting as trhe enemy in a war zone, and they should reap a "reward" for their lack of control.

[Frank_Discussion]

cities = sities

[ItisaReligionofPeace]

I wouldn't mind a decent reward for everyone in those pictures.

In retrospect, GWB was correct in taking out Saddam Husein, not for liberating the Iraqis, but for the message it sent to other terror supporting nations in the region.

I wasn't convinced before the war that the Iraqi people were worth saving. Now I know I was right. Yea, I know their not all this way, but in the eyes of all muslims, we are the infidel.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

Show them no mercy.

Support Bump!

"WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE?!"

If this is allowed to go unpunished, it will bring on more of the same. Arabs love to test us and push. if we do nothing, they will keep pushing. If we turn Faluja in to a parkinglot, they may take notice.

No reward needed.
