#4 Shoot him again. In fact several times. And his buddy too. When are these folks going to realize that we have about had it with these folks. Okay don't shoot him. Just level the place.

#6 Damn straight mojo! Every freakin' mosque was a bunker. They should thank Allan there are any mosques left in that place. And, if it angers muslims....you can pretty much be sure you've done right.

#7 "Look at this old man who was slain by them," said Ahmed Khalil, 40, as he watched the video in his Baghdad shop. "Was he a fighter? Was anybody who was killed inside this mosque a fighter? Where are their weapons? I don't know what to say."

Jackass... yeah, we left the weapons with them on the floor after we killed them all. F-ing morons. I couldn't care less what these scumbags think. The ones on our side and want democracy I embrace. The rest, I'm done worrying about what they think of us... Let them hate us. Let them FEAR us.

#10 Reading of muslim atrocities angers lots of non muslims too. Knowing of the general acquiescence of such among themselves especially, even more. Do muslims own that sole monopoly to anger? What is holy is not anymore to be determined by them alone. The first step to avoid dhimmitude from unconcious and inadvertent PCness.

#11 advice to seething muslims - take the nearest AK (or stick if no gun's nearby) and go complain to the nearest Marine squad

#12 While this video is being broadcast every few minutes across the World, Margaret Hassan's killing has not been shown once. She was killed by a gunshot, she wasn't beheaded. So why is one shooting too graphic, and the other isn't?

#13 "...raised questions about the protection of insurgents..."
This is so fn stupid it makes my head hurt.

Maybe this would be a good time to tell the world that, as far as terrorism is concerned, we don't want to even talk about the Geneva Conventions, let alone honor them. Not that this is even a violation.

#16 Don't care if they don't like us, but they damn sure better fear us because we're just about past the point where no longer care what they think about anything.

#17 I'm thinking Sites should now be the volunteer to flip over every body his squad runs across. I wonder what he'll say when he finds a boobytrap.

#19 Careful - I ripped Sites earlier, but he did a report today that conveyed ALL the facts we'd bitched about before: guys were killed by a "dead" Iraqi the day before; "surrendering" Iraqis shot their Marine captors, etc... Dunno if he's trying to redeem hisownself among his embed protectors, or understood the MSM played it out of control, or what...

#22 These folks are going to have to be Shermanized before the sething stops. We've been playing with too many rules of engagement and not enough dead enemy.

#23 Tom 2004,

Too late. He is either too stupid to understand the Muslim and liberal "minds" or he did it on purpose to make a name for himself. I am inclined to believe the latter. I hope that the next time he goes out with the Marines, they will "accidentally" forget to warn him of a possible road bomb or mine. What a scum that guy is!!!

#24 We should be careful not to upset the Muslims they might resort to terrorism.

#26 You know what I hate? People who ambush Americans, burn them, drag them through the streets, string them up by their feet from a bridge, and then do that faggy arab dance for the AP. This POS' life isn't worth a squirt of piss to me.

#27 I'm angry too. We're getting sloppy over there. We need to borrow a page out of Red China's book: after we shoot him in the head, we need to follow up by sending a bill for $1.17 to the scumbag's family to reimburse us for the cost of the bullet.

#30 When are moose limbs not seething? Being alive and non moose limb is enough for that. Just figure this is a good small partial payback for shitting all over the place in the Church of the Nativity.

: ) !

MANY THANKS to everyone on this post! Y'all totally made my day. And many more thanks to our noble Marines who are doing a great job in a very tough situation.

Hey--MSM hasn't shown any raw "footage" on ANY of our dead--brave, decent guys taken out by "insurgents" (code word for Asshat Thugs, Inc.). Wonder why that is . . .
