BAGHDAD, March 20 — Insurgents detonated a bomb in a car with two children in it after using the children as decoys to get through a military checkpoint in Baghdad, an American general said Tuesday.
Speaking at a news briefing at the Pentagon, Maj. Gen. Michael Barbaro, deputy director for regional operations at the Joint Staff, said American soldiers had stopped the car at the checkpoint but had allowed it to pass after seeing the two children in the back seat.
“Children in the back seat lower suspicion,” he said, according to a transcript. “We let it move through. They parked the vehicle. The adults run out and detonate it with the children in back.”
General Barbaro offered no further details...
Agence France-Presse, quoting an unidentified American military official, said the incident occurred Sunday. The bombers parked the vehicle across the street from a school then ran away, leaving the children inside, the official told the news agency. The blast killed the children and three other civilians and wounded seven, the official said...

I don't usually post news about the war; it's too depressing to me. But this was just too much to ignore.
Freedom Fighters. Yeah, that's it.
They really are terrorists. Taking the lives of children like that. Just terrible.
Oh..no way!!
Animals!!!
This answers the question of why they hate us.....THEY"RE EVIL!!!
Awful.....
words fail
I just sent this story to a liberal who I argued with today over whether these were militants just fighting our army or whether they were terrorists with no regard for human life.
I doubt he's going to concede an inch, even in light of this.
That people would ruthlessly attack Bush and ignore and even fight for the savages who perpetrate this mess is beyond tolerable.
I can't comprehend such evil.
Those poor little innocents are in a better place now.
Those poor little innocents are in a better place now.
Gimma a break; they'd be better off living their lives first and among sane people, not their hate-filled, jealous executioners.
Go to the posted article and scroll down for the video.
It would seem they were not under suspicion.
Why could they not have taken the two children out and strolled away with them and then detonated the bomb.
Because the filthy inhuman POS TERRORISTS had no other use for the kids and killing them meant nothing to them.
Well duh!!! You reckon? Unfortunately, they weren't. They were at the mercy of cold-blooded killers.
But, don't you see, everything happens according to Allah's plan, thus the fact that the murderous thugs blew up the children was merely a manifestation of the will of Allah.
Allahu Akbar!
Mustafa, quick get me my rusty knife so that I may behead another infidel! I have no choice in the matter, it is merely Allah's will.
These aren't barbarians. These are evil monsters.
Sure would love to hear what Rosie O'Doughnut has to say about this incident.
These are "people" the NYT and the dems want to win.
Lordy, lordy.
Wednesday, on THE VIEW:
{shrill, screeching voice that gets louder and louder}
"It's all Bushitler's fault!! If he and his cronies at Halliburton hadn't started this war for oil, then those poor insurgents wouldn't be forced to act like this!! They are only trying to save what's left of their country--they did those kids a favor, because who would want to live in Iraq, it's a freakin' quagmire!! You do know that George Bush is personally responsible for the deaths of over a million innocent Iraqis, don't you? Add 2 innocent kids to that number now!! Not to mention our poor, dedicated, innocent, Forest Gump-like troops who've been murdered by this imposter in the White House...I tell ya, we've been livin' in an alternate time line since he stole that election 7 years ago!!"
/sarc off (or *am* I being sarcastic? Or truthful? You be the judge)
Has anyone mentioned to these 'insurgents' that the Hell they are going to is full of very large flaming Pigs ????
I need to highlight 4 points where these Islamofacists are concerned:
1. They do not value LIFE at all, even so-called innocent bystanders much less their own. In their twisted evil religion death by Jihad is the only guaranteed way into heaven
2. They do not fight by any form of rules and fairplay; so they are free to invent any which way to attack you even if they just signed a treaty and the ink isnt even dry on it yet!
3. Their religion does not have a formalized legal/moral code as in the Judeo-Christian religions whereby it says DO NOT LIE. On the other hand the Koran clearly teaches thats its OK to lie if it can advance your attempts to kill the enemy (Jews & Non-Believers). So even with some courts in the USA are allowing muslims to swear on their holy book, its a very large gateway to do outright lying for them.
4. Since they dont value life (see item 1) it also means that using kids & babies is OK to them since (a) It serves as a distraction to attack they enemy and (b) they breed up so many of them already and by dying in Jihad they kids go to their allah!
I can condense all of that into this:
Islamofascists are demon-possessed, God-hating, peace-hating, evil-loving subhumans.
Pretty much covers it all, IMO.
Yeah I agree with you but the DU_mmies lurkers around here needs to have it broken down into details for their tiny minds to comprehend.
And, as usual, the moonbats will gripe more about why US forces are in Iraq than the fact that children were used and murdered as decoys. Not a word about that, I bet.
Or, they'll claim that our troops shot the children. You know how it goes.
HEHE the DUmmies are calling it "US propaganda" and saying the US military made up the whole story.
Palestinians are so... special.
Holy Mother of G-d.
Will someone please report this? These were innocent children - do Democrats REALLY need power that badly?
For shame. All sin and fall short of the glory of G-d, but KIDS? Why not me?
...coming soon to a school near you?
Let's hope not.

Martyrs for Allah!
I'd have a tablespoon of modicum had those, um, subhumans (don't want a suspension) had the brass to stay in the vehicle.
We're through the looking glass. Destroy all of them yesterday. Filth is wiped off of the countertop.
Great video!!!.....(I REALLY liked all the MANY "secondaries"....)
Really? Wow. Just when I thought they couldn't get any dumber...
Where did they get the children? Did they go to the local kindergarten and ask, "Who wants to die for Allah?"
I bet they weren't their own kids.
"Sure would love to hear what Rosie O'Doughnut has to say about this incident."
The liberal mind is pretty predictable.
I'm guessing it will go something like this...
"isn't it sad that George Bush drives people into such desperateness that they feel forced to kill their own children in order to fight for their freedom?"
ignoring, of course, that most people fight for freedom so that their kids can live a better life than they did.
oh yeah....the kids got left behind in the car.
I bet MSM won't even touch this one.
Well, it was in the NYT. I think that counts as MSM.
Although, you're probably right - some media will ignore it.
And the reason they'll ignore it is because news like this does change public opinion.
Definitely. I can't imagine ABC evening news showing this. I suppose the people that think we are in a quagmire will feel they are right when people are blowing up children to kill Americans. But people that think terrorists are a threat to the US will feel that this proves they are right.
Describing the terrorists as Barbarians is an insult to Barbarism, the terrorists are worst than Wild Beasts and must be annihilated from the planet.
Kind of like how our liberals pushed the kids up front at the anti-USA rallies to deface public property >>> http://photos-997.ak.facebook.com/ip002/v64/140/6/65201211/n65201211_30340997_4004.jpg
Obviously, a large difference in degree but the same perverse thinking.
We should pull out immediately that the children did not die in vain (/sarc)
Its not a matter of NEED but GREED for POWER to force their evil liberal lifestyles on the American people and the world.
Y'know their lifestyle & ideology that says the traditional Judea-Christian beliefs IS unacceptable, Gays are the highest evolved humans and therefore it MUST be mandatory to be imposed on even 3 year old kids and in all schools even to the University level, that America is an inherently evil country hellbent on worldwide imperialism and therefore Democrat leaders must find ways to cripple the Military by forcing the Gay issue (and so destroy it from withing) and in all ongoing military operations to grab Defeat from the jaws of Victory.
In short America is to be immolated & humiliated esp with Bush in the White House. If and when a Liberal/RINO/Democrat takes the Presidency then in their thinking, suddenly America will be the better for it.
