I heard about this on the radio news a little while ago---

and I know that I shouldn't feel any "different" that it is women instead of men Marines, and I really don't except that for so many to have been hit at once, is just awful...

From what I heard, they were on their way to relieve other women Marines at checkpoints, because they are at the checkpoints to search women that are going through the checkpoints...

This is yet again an example of the US "being thoughtful, and sensitive to Iraqi and Muslims feelings"---that seems to have cost us lives of troops...

Of course, DICK Durbin might lump them in with Nazis, also, because they were going to be mean and search people...

If they had armor on the car, then they didn't have enough armor. Also, they should clear the roads whenever a military vehicle passes...like in the old days, when the King's carriage went down the road, all the peasants knelt down in submission...obviously for the King's safety.

This is bad news. We are bringing in women to be sensitive to searching Muslim women, and our women are killed for that.

Someone might want to ask Dick Durbin how many Nazi women were killed in fighting because the Nazis were sensitive to the cultures of the people they destroyed.

Yeah, that looks like what we did to the Muslims, Dick. Looks just like Gitmo, doesn't it, you bastard.

The Pentagon needs to fear that the jihadis have studied their history. This war is tottering at home (which is all that counts). Just look at ALL the polls.
If the jihadis want it to tip their way, they need to launch a Tet-like offensive which shocks everyone with its scope and boldness. They don't have to win the attack--just attempting it is enough.

I'm afraid I don't understand something here:

When they made women into combat marines, I felt good, because that meant we were all equal. I treasured that self-esteem.

But these guerrillas have killed those women, and this fills me with BAD feelings. I'm not supposed to have bad feelings, because having GOOD feelings is a new right of the new century.

Can someone here help me out? I'm feeling....confused...

I'm beginning to think the guerrillas might not be cooperating with the New Agenda.

Am I missing something here?

When, oh when, are we going to take off the gloves and fight this thing as wars should be fought? Much of the wanton slaughter of our troops could be avoided if we truly did use "shock and awe" instead of just talking about it. Looks like we've lost our will; if that's the case, then let's fold up our tents and limp home with our tails between our legs, cowering and waiting for them to launch another 9/11.

Let's be careful not to make the Gitmo prisoners feel bad about it, though.

Here comes the event that the media will try to turn into the "Tet Offensive" of Iraq.

Follow the terror back to its SOURCE and wipe out the source
The financial sources and spiritual sources as well as man power and infrastructure sources...

And go after the weapons sources....and those who sell and transport them..

imo

Does anyone know: Are the missing Marines thought to have been captured or is this a situation where they can't find/identify remains?

A suicide car bomber slammed into a U.S. military convoy in Fallujah, killing two Marines, a Pentagon spokesman said Friday. Three Marines and a sailor were missing after the attack.

Women should not be in the military.

But that's just an opinion.

The more the liberals open their mouths, so does the increase in death of our brave men and women in the military. We took Iraq without a hitch till the liberals opened their mouths than the insurgency hit hard. Remember every time a liberal spews, one of our brave soliders dies.

Did the rest of the unit abandon these women in the field? This is unheard of in the USMC. What actually happened?
