Surrender and succor
U.S. Marines from the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit help an Iraqi soldier with water from a canteen in southern Iraq on Friday, March 21, 2003. Some 200 Iraqi soldiers surrendered to the U.S. 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit just an hour after it crossed the border into Iraq from northern Kuwait.

Exactly what I was saying to my grown son and his girlfriend today. Look how we treat THEM and how they treat US. They are barbarians. Some of them are terrorists, I guess we should not be surprised. But I had forgotten that we could run into the really bad guys over there. They still live in 12th century in Iraq.

I can see the Arab press now:
Vile Americans force captured Iraqi soldiers to drink tainted liquids at gunpoint!

Any captured Fedayeen (Civilian Pro Soddom Goons) should be held seperately from other Iraqi troops. They could trouble makers and are subject to trial as war criminals and spies.
