The atrocities in Iraq, regardless of the nationality of the person(s) comitting them, are horrendous.

So let it be written, so let it be done.

AQ ALSO wants the US out of Iraq... and out of the ME as a whole. They can't make an entire Islamic world with the US butting in Iraq. France banning headscarves was a good recruiting tool and they didn't do jack. I mean you CAN'T be this conspiratorially minded, can you? Usually when terrorists groups tell you their goals, they mean them.

Support Apolyton, pre-order Civilization IV

we are at war... and the rules were changed over 10 years ago when those pig dogs started all of this. I am sick of us getting attacked for mistreatment of prisoners of war with these Jackasses have been killing there prisoners in a public display for over a decade.

F'them, I hope they shove hot pokers up their bums instead of just broomsticks.

I know what those few did were wrong, but what they are doing is not the few, it is their military, and what they did is not out of retaliation it's out them just being evil arseholes.

and in the words of a great 'Poly poster:

"Nukem til they glow, then nuke them again"



damn, and I WAS in a good mood.

Too true. For once everyone on both sides were showing some solidarity over the horendous treatment of Iraqi prisoners. Now the Iraqis have gone off the deep end only to piss off Americans even more - people will probably say the Iraqi prisoners deserved what they got after this. Especially since we didn't actually kill any prisoners either. Its just going to give Bush another excuse to get all righteous about whats going on in Iraq.

Clearly they don't understand how we think just as much as we don't understand how they do... and I would even say much more so.

Rage is passion, a passion that only the liberal world bothers to deal with... that and sex, but then hey!

The problem is that there is no passion over these killings due to strange "torture" practices, but for the "torture" there is, because there's is RAGE FROM A BARBARIC NATION!

*delurk*
US and UK forces have done far worse than humiliation, including murder. Not that this even matters, the prisoners abused, humiliated, tortured and murdered by US and UK forces have been convicted of no crime, and can't be held accountable for this latest outrage or any other.

Al Queda is expected to do this, even if it's unfortunate.

The USA is a proud, upstanding nation of morals and integrity. We lost some of that.

.

Al Queda isn't an official government--a terrorist organization killing someone is more plausible than a USA*

.

Ted, a shame Arabs don't protest in the streets against this--much like Americans do when some West or Western-related group does something like this, they're probably just ignorant or swept into mass bullsh!t (for example, "they did it so we can too," the basic premise of the unfortunate Okie Senator's recent speech).

EDIT: Sorry. completed, "than a USA torturing someone. Reaction to a terrorist group is a lot different than reaction to a nation."

And I should have said something like "Well many Arabs really wouldn't support it if they would just speak up/had democracy, education, and weren't living in hellholes."

There seems to be a video of the beheading of a US hostage by AQ linked militants claiming it was paybakc for the prisoner abuse.

PREDICTION:

1. People will demand we give equal time to that video as to the prisoner scandal
2. The horrific crime commited against this hostage will be touted as a "comparison" between the military and AQ, and hence be touted as an excuse. "you think we are bad! Look at them!"

So predicts Gepap..and so shall it be.
