#1 Can't imagine it would be all that tough for Iraqis to sort most of them out.

In any case, they should be given about 30 years to think it over and perhaps some will fill in their info forms correctly .....

#2 But officials acknowledge that the U.S. military has been largely unable to identify the insurgents or determine their nationality.

Of what help would this information be? Are letters going to be sent to Assad, Khamenei, or whoever asking them to please stop it??

The best and least troublesome solution would be to dispatch these degenerates in battle, allowing them to collect their raisins. No incarceration, no upkeep, no future amnesty, and no expense.

#6 LOL ed! TGA won't tell you that Werhmacht troops above the rank of private are required to memorize world series winners. :)

#8 The idea is to cut off their fingers just below the shoulder and send 'em back where they came from, as a warning. Would YOU like to live the rest of your life having to be fed by someone else, dressed by someone else, and have your a$$ wiped by someone else? To be totally at someone else's mercy for everything you do? It's a great deterrent, especially for moose-limblesss.

#9 Eh, doesn't seem to have slowed Captain Hook down all that much. I wouldn't take chances like that...

Oy, oy - shipman, don't be dissing TGA. It's the Bundeswehr that makes recruits memorize world series winners. Wehrmacht's been defunct since 1945, at least partially due to this exact training deficiency.
