yep.

That's EXACTLY what we should of done YEARS ago. Back when they were cutting peoples heads off and hanging our dead soldiers bodies from bridges.

Imagine if we had nuked Falujah back then! The war would of been over then and there! The rag heads would of been standing in lines 500 miles long to surrender.

It was a NATO mission. Which means there were muslims involved and on board. Some were killed. One could have been a mole on a suicide mission. Just wondering.

Just get it right. Terrible spelling and grammar is part of the problem. We have to hang on to our heritage. It’s not a little deal, kapish?

or give them 24 hours for the righteous to clear out of Mecca and Medina. Then send in the Tomahawks.
