#1 Someone certainly seems to be on drugs, but it ain't the marines...

#2 ...the American aggressor troops are laughing

Yes. That's right. Coward, I would like to introduce you to courage. We call them Marines.

#3 Wrong, they're laughing because you ragheaded idiots keep running in front of their bullets.

#4 It's a cultural thing -- the jihadis don't realize that, during the attacks, the soldiers are fondly reliving memories of the time they spent at the arcade playing "Whack-a-Mole".

#5 prompts laughter and reduces the sense of fear in combat conditions: - that's not from a pill, it's from the brave Islamic Heroes™ shitting their robes when a sniper takes them out one by one

#6 Those that believe Jihad Unspun and Al Jazeera are in for another big world turning suprise when al-Fallujah falls to the US Marines and the tall tales of heroic defense and Marines crying is exposed as total crap.

#7 We think of the Marines as superhuman...the jihadists don't stand a chance...comply or die...

#8 Actually, this claim is a deliberate attempt to reverse the situation.

The marines have found drugs alongside several of the suicide bomb depots & there is some evidence that the suiciders are getting high before going off to blow themselves & others up.

This is, of course, counter to Islam, so the authors of this little piece are trying hard to deflect the attendent criticism.

#9 They ain't laughing... they're whooping. Scared the sh*t out of the Germans, and it'll scare your boyz too.

#10 No US troops were killed in Fallujah on Saturday. And thanks to the half-assed "ceasefire," no troops are "storming" neighborhoods; instead, they're sitting there waiting to storm. And I'd like to know where those supply lines have (supposedly) been cut. Then I'd like to know how those "nearby" resistance fighters are still alive.

The sad thing is, there's people who will believe this horseshit. And not just Iraqis. I've gotten in several arguments with folks I know who actually believe the propaganda that US snipers are targeting women and children.

#11  And the winner of the "Islamic Lie of the Day" goes to . . .


Gotta love the "ooogah-boogah" emotion factor in their "reports":

"the American aggressor troops "

"American soldiers laughing, such as to arouse pity for them"

"despite all the Resistance gunfire being poured at their position and their comrades dying around them"

" the despair and terror exhibited by the US troops when their lines of supply of food and medicine have been cut"

AND THIS IS THE BEST ONE:

Resistance learned later from interrogations of captured American Marines "Captured?" Captured Marines did ya? Uh-huh. Sure ya did.

And they were quaking with fear, too, at the sight of you, huh? And they peed themselves too, didn't they? And they cried for their mothers too, when the brave fighters of the uprising entered the "interrogation" room, and they fell on their knees and begged you for mercy--mercy from the holy resistance fighters. And as they hung their heads in shame and regret, they promised, by Allah, they'd do anything if you would but show even a small measure of mercy to them, as unworthy as they were of it. So then you told them they would be released on one condition--that they would go and tell the world the truth about American aggression and all the women and children that have been bloodied, maimed, and killed by the drug-using, babyeating, parent-slayer Marines. And then they all converted to Islam.

This leads me to one very important conclusion. When things settle down over there, there's going to be a REALLY big market for comic books.

#15 Tha Arab mind never ceases to amaze me! No matter how badly they get the shit kicked out of them it is we that are in fear? In about 48 hours we are going to be scared shitless because the Marines are drop down on them like a ton of bricks. At least with Baghdad Bob you got some entertainment value from his speeches. "There are no American Forces in the city!"

#18 They are laughing at you, fool...because you are laughable.

I think jihad unspun is confused because they thougt Americans were docile, weak, crippled by the thought of civilian casualties, not willing to fight for what we value.
Whoops, guess you miscalculated, f'ers.

#19 The Marines are laughing in gut busting derision. Much more used to fighting a trained and disciplined enemy that fights within some arena of rules, honor. Even chivalry.

Not a rag-tag herd of towel-head shooting from hospitals, Mosques, and behind women and children!

#20 snellenr - Video games? Naw, its memories of a wild turkey shoot, gobble-gobble-gobble.

I heard this AM we got 43 of them and (hopefully) didn't lose anybody in Najaf. Its gotta be because of turkey shoot memories. By the way 43 jihadians in "paradise" works out to 3,096 virgins.

#23 The sad thing is that many impressionable and mis-educated people in the Arab world actually believe this Goebbels-inspired bullshit.
It is almost all they see from outlets like Al-Jazz and Al-Arabiya, with the blessing and encouragement of western media collaborators like Robert Fisk and Michael Mooore.

Similar lies have inspired thousands to leave their homes and join the jihadis.
I feel little sympathy for these misguided souls, but I have none at all for the cynical propagandists who incite them knowing full well that most of them will never come home. They have blood on their hands and they should be held to account for it.

#24 Cyber Sarge: "the Marines are drop down on them like a ton of bricks. "
You got it all wrong, Sarge! All the Marines converted to Islam after being interogated. I read it somewhere. It's true.

Forgot about good ol' Bagdad Bob. Thanks! That is definitely going to be the trade name of my comic book series which I will market in the New Iraq. "Bagdad Bob Comics." Reminds me of "Bazooka Bubble Gum." Has that ring to it. I'll include some of that gum with each comic book.

Whoa--I'm going to make a fortune . . .

#26 rhb: Counter to Islam, maybe, but it has a history. The Agha Khan used to hop up his boys on hashish, prompting folks to call them hashishim, or assasins..

Well there you have it. This explains why they see the Marines laughing.

Actually, getting high is a tactic that was used in Afghanistan during the Soviet days as well. I wouldn't be surprised if every suicide bomber from Gaza to Chechnya used this method to get themselves "inspired", so to speak.

#32 Didn't I see that the Marines were using a recording of laughter? That must unnerve the jihadis to see a bunch of serious snarling Marines glaring at them and hearing laughter coming from the same spot.
