Two U.S. POW's Murdered

IF and that is a big if, if there are actually 256,000 trained Iraqi Security Forces on the ground in Iraq, then maybe Murtha is right. Lets redeploy our forces back into Kuwait where they can be used as a quick reactionary force when needed. Not bring them back to the states, redeploy them. We can still have 130,000 US forces, but just not have ALL of them in Iraq and subjected to these kinds of attacks on a daily basis.

 

wow... almost no replies? i'm sure if someone posted about a Q'ran being flushed down a toilet, there'd be PLENTY of anti-US bashing...

btw, they were MUTILATED.

c'mon lefties, let's hear some rage against them terrorists huh....?

:angry:

 

My rage is with a puppet president and the puppet masters that have hijacked America.

 

To be fair to my liberal friends, this is one conservative who understands the hesitancy in presenting a strongly held position in the face of such evil. These incidents don't galvanize them like they do us. They don't reinforce the belief that "staying the course" is the way to go, but rather it reinforces their belief that a better way should have been tried from the beginning to avoid all of this.

I disagree, but I respect how they feel. But now is not the time to argue about it.

Our focus now should be on these men and their families, how we should honor them and their memory. For some of us, that will be to hold back on partisan political positions out of respect for the dead. There will be time for us to wage our war of words, and we can refer to incidents like this in an oblique manner, after a respectable length of time.

God bless these men, and their families, and their friends who are still there, serving beside them.

 

take all out people out of the country (IRAQ) then NUKE it !

 

Horrifying and disgusting. These insurgents have no respect for life... none whatsoever.

Okm36,

I don't know what to say to that, but I STRONGLY disagree... but is totally understandable.

Sounds a lot like the "she deserved it for wearing those provocative clothes"...jeesh! Blaming the Prez for the death is one thing...for the torture???? you're sick!!!

 

Brasche,

The details were gruesome... worse than any horror film I have ever seen.

Thank you Frank,

Yes I am a liberal and often times disagree with your viewpoint, but with a reasoned discussion on topics, we might not agree, but through comprimise can usually come up with a solution that benefits the greater good. The name calling on the other hand does no good.

The one point all can agree on however is this is a dispicable act against humanity, period! As for what should we do, I don't know, but lowering ourselves to anything aproaching their level is not the response of a civilized people.

Really, what's this arbitrary concept people keep slinging around like day old hash about "their level"? Really, I never totally understood this concept, I think it is shallow, hollow, and costs us far more than the artifical prestige is appears to be.

I have the perfect solution:

F'in close off, and encircle any problem city in Iraq. Don't let anyone in or out, give them one week to hand over the insurgents or the city gets atomized off the map.

To let them know we're not BS'ing, atomize Falluja first as an example.

Murtha actually wanted to redeploy troops to Okinawa and Kerry wanted some of them stationed over 6000 miles away!! BaHaHahahahaha! :lol: BTW eyeguy not one word of outrage? I betcha you'd scream bloody hell if we sent anymore terrorist to Guantanamo and fed them 3 square a day and supplied them with free medical care and reading material. You sir and the sort that is the far left of the Democratic Party are some piece of work.

You can't say one thing against these murderers? Shameful and anyone that defends this type of response is also shameful and I'm not talking about his 1st Amendment rights I'm addressing only the comments.

And that's why you lose elections you don't know what to do.

And this is the reasoned response from some on the right? Attack the vets that fought for your right to spew this trash. Then turn arround and attack one of our servicemen. My, aren't you proud of yourself.

I am one 'the vets that fought for your right to spew this trash' and I say go ahead.

The truth, whatever it is, is more important than the politically driven motivations of 2 former military officers who now only care about reelection.

Is it reasonable to station troops in a country that does not want us especially when we are relocating it elsewhere? Is it reasonable to demand that we redeploy troops so far away from the area needed? Yes I will attack these ideas anytime, anywhere and with my best efforts if those ideas are harmful to our country. Remember Benedict Arnold also fought for our rights and freedoms at one time and as far as I'm concerned these men I mentioned above will cause as great a harm as he did for nothing other than political gain.
