I, for one, will wait conformation, then enjoy the pronouncement. After all the recent false death reports, I will bide my time.

Mosque shoot out? DO what ? They don’t pray and serve Allah in their Mosque? This report has to be wrong. Surely you jest! (sarc)

Muslims aren't terrorists, but 99.9% of todays terrorists are Muslim.

And I say F the MSM and their damn lies.

I seldom watch TV anymore because I need a shovel for all the horsesh!t they keep pushing.

It's a shame that so many people in this Nation are willingly subservient to the stupidity and propaganda oozing out of today's TV networks.

Let me guess....

The mosque was a staging area for terrorist operations and planning, and it was also used as a weapon/ammo storage facility.

And where is Amnesty International and the rest of the damn idiots in the democrat party to declare that the Soldiers have no right to "shoot" at a "protected site" like a "mosque?"

F'ing democrats are a terrorist's and murder's enabler, and they should be viewed as enemies to the American people.
