#1 Sarge, take some blood pressure pills and then go take a look at that picture's associated website. I won't link it here.

#2 I think those 3 troops might just have standing for a lawsuit. That's hardly satire, it's libel.

How much does ANSWER have in capital?

#3 God have mercy on their souls, because if I EVER meet this person I WILL NOT!

Hard to say if you'd have the chance unless you're in Europe. It would appear that the domain that image is linked to resides there. Can't say where their contributors are located, but it's almost certain that a fair number of them can be found on U.S. soil.

#5 Only thing this says to me is that there will be mass suicides among the loony left when George Bush wins reelection next year. Guess someone could send 'em one of these:

Probably cause them to run shrieking into the traffic.

#6 The American Myrmidon caption caught my attention.

Myr"mi*don, n. [L. Myrmidones, Gr. ?, pl.]
1. One of a fierce tribe or troop who accompained Achilles, their king, to the Trojan war.

2. A soldier or a subordinate civil officer who executes cruel orders of a superior without protest or pity; --Thackeray.

This is a very obscure reference. They probably wanted to say the American Third Reich, but didn't have the balls.

#9 The site (I refrain from linking to it as well) is clearly terrorist, obviously registered by an Austrian and hosted by an Austrian company.

In Germany this site would qualify as "inciting to murder and hate crime". Prosecution would be certain. This has nothing to do with free speech. I don't know how the law exactly is in Austria but I will find out and get an Austrian friend to file a complaint.

This is more than a kid playing with photoshop.

#11 Hey they even have an assasination list. That's gotta be worth something to go to court with.

#12 Oh yeah. They support the troops. It's the WAR they're against. They LOVE the troops.
Suuuuuuuuuuure they do.

#16 No, asshelmet, we are all aware that American soldiers are directly following the orders of old Prescott, channeled no doubt by noted antisemite Paul Wolfowitz.
While you're demonizing people for their ancestors, you fucking hypocrite, are you aware that Ramsey Clark's father, Tom Clark, was the US Attorney in charge of rounding up Japanese-Americans during World War 2?
By your logic, this makes Ramsey a racist by association. At this point, you should abuse and reject anyone having any association with him, such as, say, A.N.S.W.E.R.

#17 Meanwhile, JoeDoe, you might want to check out how your fellow totalitarians in the Cuban gestapo deal with someone who portrays an actual fascist, your hero Fidel, as Hitler.
