"A real patriot" was my sarcastic line to indicate a quote.

I'm waiting for a story on how Americans are enraged at the jihadis.

Not holding my breath.

NBC must be very proud of its efforts to recruit more terrorists to kill our soldiers. I hope they don't act too surprised when the next terror bombing happens in the USA with this incident used as justification for it. What anti-American scum made the editorial decision to run this video for two days straight, without checking the story in context? Why can't Rumsfelt yank their embeds out of Iraq for the safety of our troops? This will cost more lives as our Marines have to think twice in the heat of battle before shooting, for fear the NBC film crew is monitoring their life-and-death decisions.

Oh puh-lease. Why can't they find the same anger when some Westerner gets his head sawed off?

Sites and CNN are a natural (traitors both).
But are his teeth yellow enough?

Ted Turner, June 18, 2002:
Turner: 'So who are the terrorists?
I would make a case that both sides are involved in terrorism.

That's what I thought/hoped you meant. I was just being sarcastic myself. Sites is all about himself and making his name known. He's a real something or other, yep, a "real" one.

There are no rules in "this kind of war" Does Aljazeera get it yet?

No.  They do not.  Note the sub-heading from this online article about military action shifting to Mosul:

Falluja Mosque murder

The US military said it was investigating the fatal shooting of an unarmed, wounded Iraqi by a marine in a Falluja mosque over the weekend.

The inquiry was launched after videotaped pictures taken on Saturday by NBC showed the incident during an operation of the 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment.
 
The marine was removed from the battlefield pending the results of the investigation, the military said.  aljazeera

 

Obviously, they have already decided, and are telling their audience, it was murder.

Well DAM IT -

I'm ENRAGED over VIDEO TAPED BEHEADINGS who are NOT even fighting. Harmless, defenseless CIVILIANS trying to IMPROVE YOUR COUNTRY. THEY'RE BOUND, HELD DOWN and have their HEADS SAWED OFF.

I'm GLAD the marine shot him. I'm GLAD there is one less EVIL Muslim on this earth. I hope MORE are killed. The MORE the BETTER. This is WAR; not a church picnic.

How about your "men" who prance around dressed up like women to FLEE the country?

How about your "men" who play dead then kill marines when a soldier approaches them to see if they can HELP him?

How about your "men" who use themselves a HUMAN BOMBS?

I'm OUTRAGED at YOU!

May you ALL rot in HELL asap!

An anti war activist, embedded with US troops?

How on earth did he get into that position?

This is starting to look like a set-up to me.


Yes, it is. When at war, people are killed, especially the enemy. Are we supposed to take all prisoners now, and not shoot? That would be the UN way.
By the way, the UN is still pushing for internet control. They have 3 areas identified, and I can see where this is headed. Anybody have any ideas on the UN, email me, please.

Would they be as angry if the marine had beheaded the creep instead of shooting him?

Tell 'em we're going to do to them the same as they do to the men and women they kidnap. We're going to cut off the heads of every prisoner we capture, and if that doesn't stop their barbarism, tell 'em we're going to kill every member of their families as well.

Tell them they don't know what rage is. Tell 'em they will beg to be killed in the face of our rage!!!

Good posting. I am often reminded in my own mind of Lawrence's quote since the War in Iraq began. He was, and you are so right in your analysis, and nothing has changed for them in a century.

In reading the other postings I remembered that Lawrence (a foreigner) fought and (taught the Arabs) a guerrilla war against the Turks. Thank God we are not fighting like the Turks. How would it be for us to fight a guerrilla war against the insurgents? We couldn't but the Iraqis (if they got some spines)could.

And then speaking of the Turks, they were much feared and hated by the Arabs, they were not merciful in tending to the enemy's wounded (like the American soldiers), (in fact doesn't Lawrence have to kill his wounded before he leaves them because the brutality of the Turks to the Arab wounded was legendary?

But then it appears the only language of law and order that the Arabs of any day understand is the treacherous. deceitful strong arm and fist holding a sword dripping with blood, be it that of the infidel Crusader or of brother (sarcasm) Arab.

but such scenes are pushing me to Jihad..

Yeah, I think I'll go behead some woman. No, maybe I'll just cut her arms and legs off and mutilate her face.

Clymers.

Charming. Considering the Marines had been finding booby trapped corpses, this young man took the only course of action open to him, in defense of his life and that of his comrades. The Arabs can get angry all they like but nothing will make them right.

Regards, Ivan

Memo to the Arab "street":

I'm enraged by 9-11, beheadings, and all forms of Arab terrorism in general. So if a Marine who has already been wounded by a terrorist creep playing possum decides not to get suckered again, tough.

Deal with it, ragheads.

It's getting really bad now. I can say with conviction that I truly hate arabs...and muslims, in general, stereotypically. Before someone paints me as a modern-day KKK member, I'll have you know I didn't feel this way until September 11, 2001. Now, every time I read or hear this kind of talk from the arab/muslim world, I realize how much I despise them, their "culture", their world. I can't seem to separate them, in the good old-fashioned American politically-correct way we have been taught in our public schools and other public institutions. Instead, I believe islam - and arabs - are a scourge on civilization - a really bad joke perpetrated by God.
