Precisely. And a helluva lot of people, including a huge number on this very board, will give the hajis a pass since they were so brave and really want to take their country back. Spare me. They all should've been stuffed into that mosque together and a couple of JDAMs dropped on it.
Just be yourself and if someone don’t like it, it’s too bad. I’d figure anyone being honest should be welcome here, and I’m with you on the high value of every one of our Troops.
Understood, although I will listen to Limbaugh, I woundn’t hang-out with him.
Riiiight.
Beat me to it... by three days! lol. Just came up in Stars and Stripes.
Pingin’ ya buddy!
Yes, you’re doing good, much better then the General Public of the World who just sits around and waits for what the Democrat Majority Press prints.
Another American success,

The suspect was carrying approximately 30 pounds of homemade explosives in his bicycle basket when he was detained at approximately 8 p.m.
Soldiers from the 3rd Squadron, 7th Cavalry Regiment, attached to the 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 82nd Airborne Division, detained the suspect after being tipped off by concerned residents.
A platoon from Troop B, 3-7 Cavalry was on patrol when they received information that a bomb was being transported by bicycle to a local mosque.
“We set up a screen around the area where we knew he would be, so that any direction he took off in we could grab him,” said Pittsburgh native 2nd Lt. Kyle Graham, who led the patrol.
Once they spotted the bicycle, the Soldiers gave chase in their humvees and cut the suspect off near a market. Graham, a former football player, was halfway out of his vehicle before it had stopped. He exited the truck and wrestled the startled suspect to the ground.
The man was immediately detained, and is being held for further questioning.
