The gunmen, their faces covered with Arab head scarves... saying into the camera: "We swear to God, we are not afraid of death. We are going to heaven."

Hmmmmm.

Looks like a coward to me.

(And don't bet on the "heaven" part, Sparky.)

Dear Jesus,
We really need some help for these folks.
And right away.
Protect them and please bring them home safely.
We are not too proud to ask for help.
We know you care about and for them,
Thanks for hearing.

Tnx - check #18.

I cannot believe all this is happening at Easter Holidays...

[Happy2BMe]

Sorry - #20.

I find it interesting that the thugs started taking hostages after Carter spoke up against the war. Think Jimmah might have given the terrorist an idea, recalling how effective hostages neutered him?

They go for broke, you up the ante.

I agree. On another thread the Muslims made a statement that they will kill in Americans Irag to avenge the death of Yassin.

Drop some bombs on Hamas. Up the ante. Make them aware that whoever they announce as perpetrators will be killed.

Easter > Coincidence?

Here is an excerpt from an email I received from a good friend who is over there fighting right now. He is an ex-marine who now works private security. He was in the first Persian Gulf War, Somalia, Bosnia and many other operations. I edited out personal info and curse words.

"Yesterday we encounterd heavy resistance and through the night as well. No casualties on our side, I can confirm 10 ememy KIA's there were several more through out the city with other units and operators. Amazing that no friendly casualites were sustained, I saw some of the heaviest fire fights I have ever seen yesterday and I am in amazement that there were only two injuires. I was behind a PKM all day don't know how many I sent down range, lost count at 600 rounds so we are hammering them through buildings and in the open. These savages have no concept of a "Better way of Life", so we will show them a nightmare of existence."

Hamas > Al Sadr > > Iran.

"This ugly picture hurts Islam and Muslims as it gives a bad impression about our Islamic religion."

The truth hurts, doesn't it?

All by design - but let the word go out around this world that the army of satan will not prevail!

Interesting choice of weaponry.

Islamists and their Jihadist army is heade for the same trash heap of history as the Nazis and the Huns.

Islam is evil. Followers of Islam are the devil's murderous slaves. Kill them all. Be damned anyone, here or anywhere else, who takes umbrage at my notions.

I am rather convinced that the predators are watching those cars, and are programmed to blast the second one, as soon as it reaches it's destination.

the self identification factor driving these terrorists, borders on being insanely suicidal...
"PLEASE," they say "KILL US!"

Marine to air cap... "the second toyota with six guys in it has ordered the hellfire special with extra hot sauce and no cheese or soft drinks, thank you, please pull around to the window. NEXT? Can I take your order please?"

10 minutes after they murder 30 hostages nuke Mecca and the Iran's nuke program. That's how you stop these rotten bastards. They go for broke, you up the ante.

There's a better way:

Yes - truly, truly AMAZING!

Great tagline from our heroes.

I watched the interview on CBN when Pat Robertson spoke with Chaplain Carey. I went on CBN and ordered 2 books and so did my Pastor!
