Pipeline News and Little Green Footballs have been covering this story. Here is PN's description of the video:

"In the heat of battle a young girl appears out of nowhere and invites this Marine to meet her family. She is leading him into an ambush but he doesn’t know it. When the two of them arrive at her home, the girl’s father and brother open fire, the Marine hits the ground and the girl is killed by her brother and father’s gunfire - ”threw open the door and I hit the floor ‘cause her brother and father shot her.“ The girl’s father and brother are still intent on killing the Marine so he grabs the girl’s sister and the brother and father then proceed to gun her down also in their haste to kill the Marine."

There's more, including a link to the video at http://www.littlegreenfootballs.com/weblog/weblog.php

Bottom line: CAIR is lying again.

I watched it the other night, it was FUNNY.

That's the problem with Muslims, no sense of HUMOR!

If Bush suddenly announced he was "The king of my domain", there would be laughs too (at least from those who watch Seinfeld).

If Bush said that, no one would know what he meant. However, if he said he was "master of my domain", then we might chuckle. Laura would elbow him, Hillary would wish she hadn't married a sex fiend.

The laughs for "dirka dirka" tell me that the audience watches Team America a lot, and probably has go around saying that when they want to make fun of people speaking Arabic. In every war we have had, it has been helpful to morale to denigrate the enemy. Sorry, but it's true--it's not easy for people to kill other people unless you find a way to dehumanize them in advance. Thus, we have fought slants and gooks and krauts and nips and rebs and yanks and redcoats and redskins and all sorts of ethnicities. We made fun of their characteristics, real or imagined. And at the end of the war, we made peace, learned more about them, and usually became friends again.

One of the things I was dismayed about right after 9/11 was the instant and total effort to keep people from having negative thoughts about Arabs and Islam. I think if we continue to fight this war in a sanitized fashion, it is only going to force us to be more vicious in the end.

That's like saying that the sun will rise tomorrow. When an organization's reason for existence is to lie to the infidels as part of a global jihad, to be a trojan horse inside the great satan, of course anything and everything that they say or do is going to be part of an effort to deceive.

Thanks for pointing me to the LGF link, and to the detail about the song. I only listened to it once, and didn't get all the lyrics. I didn't catch that they shot Hadji Girl, too, in their haste to kill the Marine.

The lyrics talk about the Marine gunning down members of an Iraqi woman's family after they confront him with automatic weapons.

I suppose a song where he gets gunned down and dies would be preferable.

I interpreted it that Dad and Bro were pissed that she showed up with an infidel and killed her for her betrayal (which really happens in the Middle East) and then went to kill him but he grabbed the sister.

He was merely avenging the girls' death. I don't see what the problem with CAIR is, I thought they would respect revenge, but wait, it's avenging the death of women, which they do not do.

Oh, and by the way, it was a JOKE! Duh! It was terrific. I hope that guy gets a recording contract.

Check out the video on Little Green Footballs. It's pretty good.

I think it's authentic. And, I think he's pretty good!

A satirical song -- oh the horror. I give this ballad three out of a possible four Dirkas.

I could CAIR less if those terror symps are offended by a song lyric goofing on jihadist family values.

Do you or any one know how I can pull this off the Web to email it? My husband wants to send it to a bunch of his Marine friends.

He laughed his @$$ off, watching it.

I'm so tired of these whiners and pansies complaining about every little thing that goes on and making a big thing out of irrelevancies. However, the problem isn't the Iraqis per se, but the Liberals behind them who are using them (as it is their tactic) to undermine our military and the war on terror.

Personally, I find the whole 'terminally offended' mindset to be a complete joke. It never seems to occur to these folks, or their apologists, that it's possible that they just might be oversensitive themselves.

Whacked.

the Marines in a heartbeat! Semper Fi!

Thanks D. I think he emailed the LittleGreenFootballs link but this will help for future mailings.

The Marine has been identified and is clearly concerned about the whole thing. He did not put it on the iternet, someone else did. LGF has further updates.

So much for the conspiracy guys who claimed it was a bad overdub done by the islamists. It was real. And it was no big deal.
