Sadr's Child Soldiers | |||
2004-08-23 | |||
Struggling to lift a Kalashnikov, a 12-year-old with the Mahdi army militia said he could do anything in battle except fly a helicopter. "Last night I fired a rocket-propelled grenade against a tank," he said. "The Americans are weak. They fight for money and status and squeal like pigs when they die. But we will kill the unbelievers because faith is the most powerful weapon." The boy called himself Moqtada, styled after the rebel cleric whose ranks he joined a month ago having travelled to Najaf from the Shia slum of Sadr City in Baghdad. He said that he hopes for a glorious death.

#12 If you are in heaven with 72 virgins . . . and since it is heaven they are going to stay virgins . . . what is the big deal? Puberty or not, nuttin' going on with Allah watching . . . |

#11 Hell is being stuck in eternity with horny 72 virgins without ever having reached puberty. Nice one Allah. |

#10 Look on the bright side of things. If we centerpunch these little halfwit punks before they've even hit puberty, then they'll never have had a chance to spawn. As always, the real problem lies with those who mindlessly pop out these wee cretins like so many sausages. However rewarding it may be on a personal level, chlorinating the gene pool will always remain a rather thankless task. |

#9 Death, Glorious Death! I think that's the title of the brochure. |

#8 I'm convinced that the kids can't be rehabilitated by that point. Kill them, then go kill the adults who indoctrinated them |

#7 Sadr is now a war criminal. It's agaist the U.N. rules to use child soilders. Now the U.N. has to arrest him. OK it's a joke. Too bad these kids have no future other than death with teh decision they have made. That is the known result of Islam, the satanic death cult. Thats no joke. |

#6 There were also fewer fighters around than in previous days, a sign perhaps that the American tactic of attrition was working For the tactically challenged, let me put it in this way. Hit it Marvin: April a year ago we took a little trip along with Colonel Russell joined by gentlement from mighty Missisip We took a lot of bacon and we took a little beans And we caught the smelley arabs in the town of Najaf the Keen. We fired our guns and the AArbags kept a'comin. There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago. We fired once more and they began to runnin' on down the Euphrates to the Shat of el Arab. We looked down the river and we seen the AArabs come. And there must have been a hundred of'em beatin' on the drum. They smelled so high and they made the cell phones ring. We stood by our Abrahms and didn't say a thing. We fired our guns and the Aarabs kept a'comin. There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago. We fired once more and they began to runnin' on down the Euphrates valley to the Shat of El Arab. Steve Russell said we could take 'em by surprise If we didn't fire our rifles til saw them roll their eyes. We held our fire til we seen their eyeballs well. then we opened up with mini guns and really gave 'em..well. We fired our guns and the AAirbags kept a'comin. There wasn't nigh as many as there was a while ago. We fired once more and they began to runnin' on down the Euphrates river to the Shat el-Arab. Yeah, they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go. They ran so fast that the news hounds couldn't catch 'em on down the Euphrates river to the shat el-Arab. |

#5 "The oldest is about 60 and the youngest perhaps 15." This reminds me of Berlin circa 1945: Adolf reviewing his "troops" before the final collapse. Yep, its a "popular resistance movement" all right. Keep pressing. The Muhdis are losing. |

#3 Little Moqtada agreed. "I am young and there is a time for playing football and enjoying myself," he said. "But there is also a time for death." Death Cult. Doesn't realize that one (death) pretty much precludes the other -- unless they play a real morbid version of football.... |

#2 Sheikh Sheibani defended the use of child soldiers in battle. "This shows that the Mahdi are a popular resistance movement against the occupiers," he said. "The old men and the young men are on the same field of battle. The oldest is about 60 and the youngest perhaps 15." Guess that means the 12 year old mentioned at the beginning of the article is there for shielding? And your parents (last parag.) are encouraging you to hole up with al-Sadr, lil' 14 year old? Too bad there's no version of D-FACS in Iraq to arrest the parent(s) for this type nonsense! |

#1 I think we need to get a little closer to the Shrine, then pull out. When they celabrate in the streets, then nail them. Won't have to look for them then. |
