Things do not appear to have gone well in Iraq this week. What the press did not report for instance was a minor incident of annihilation of gypsies by local insurgents because they mistakenly mistook the gypsies for coalition sympathisers. Oops.

Japanese have been taken hostage and threatened with being burned alive if Japan does not withdraw its troops. Japan to it's credit has refused to do so.

The lefties that abound would have you believe the rules of war apply, when in actual fact, the rules of war only apply if both sides agree - clearly not the case in this situation with a vocal and armed minority running amok.

One suggestion is remove the media (cameras) as most of the demonstrators you see on your screen are encouraged and pressed to be seen, plus they want their two seconds of fame as they stomp flags, burn effigies, wave their fists in the air and behave in a manly fashion.

Another is target the Imams and Mullahs, there have been enough ridiculous jihads promising the poor and uneducated paradise where all the pleasures denied them right here on mother earth by fanatical interpretations of the Koran are abundantly overflowing - including but not restricted to - large breasted women (blondes preferably), alcohol of every type, television, playboy and penthouse magazines, fast cars, houses with heat and air-conditioning and green grass (including smokeable stuff) everywhere that doesn't need to be cut. These wackos want to jerk around with their pissant rag amuffins - whack 'em - snuff 'em - stop pissin' around.

It's time for America to get tough with these insurgents, take 'em out, put 'em down, and move on with getting the country back on it's feet.

   

Why am I not surprised that your first and only idea is to shut down the reporters? Is freedom of the press that alien an idea to you?

It's time for the US to admit that they screwed up big-time, try George and his oily little buddies for treason before handing them over to the world court to be tried for their accumulated war crimes, and call in the rest of the world to keep the peace while allowing the Iraqis to fix things themselves.

   

I was really hoping you would be able to suppress your need to yip yap your incessent puffery, flummery and gobblygook aka pufflumgob all over this thread - alas.

Freedom of the press? Hate to break it to you prole, but there come times when even freedom of the press along with other constitutional freedoms take a back seat to survival.

Think I'm going back to the Dark Ages with you and your fanatical Mullah buddies over freedom of the press, think again. Think I give a minor poo about a few freedoms if my country/continent (read the United States of America here because Canada isn't capable) keeps me safe from these wackos who would merrily detonate atomic bombs or other wmd on my continent, think again.

I like North America, in fact I like the western hemisphere. There's lots to complain about, right? But there's no other place like it.

You feel so sorry for these idiot insane insurgents - go spend some time getting to know them. Adopt the fanatical view of the Koran. Suppress your wife and female children, revert rev - is that what the rev stands for? Rev-ert - to the Dark Ages - you'll have lots of company and you may not understand some of the dialects but I'm sure you'll enjoy the simple life.

Tisk tisk, treason no less. Find them guilty in America and then in an international court too. Regrettably your understanding of western politics limits meaningful discussion. On one hand you would have America paying for whatever - without a thought to the people aka taxpayers - typical. On the other hand you would have the entire American government tried in courts around the world. Well? Which is it? Maybe both?

   

America can't pull out now, the civil war would probably spill more blood than if they stay put untill the transfer of power. The fact that they are setting up permanent American bases probably isn't helping their cause any. If they projected the message that they're gonna leave once things 'settle down', maybe there'd be more incentive to 'settle down'.
They are in the smelly stuff up to their armpits with no easy way out. I feel sorry for them, except the Bush supporters, I don't feel sorry for those guys.

   

too bad the internet article doesn't have the pictures that are in the actual magazine.

article here:
Time magazine story

   

Would anybody miss it?

   

As I've mentioned before, only strongman can rule in that culture, and only then by making abundant use of brutality. The Iraqis like the rest of the Muslim world fear American weaponry but look apon the Americans themselves as wimps and appeasers. Nice guys finish last {if at all} in the Middle East.

   

Could that lovely little neck of yours possibly get any more red? Why, it must practicly glow.
There are innocents in Iraq.

   

Well hello Mrs. Iman and Ms. Mullah. . . .




Greetings from above.

   

rednecks can only be whity so nice little racist jab there....you punch like a girl

karra is right....let the reporters stay..maybe some of em will catch some flack.....

these people have been through hell the last 30 yrs...they know nothing about peace .or freedom...

nice that they take those who are there to help them....the japs are too tough and proud to back down....they have proved they will die first...hope the marines rescue em....
Im all for bombing the mosques if that takes out the bad dudes


only real mistake was not declrin martial law and dis arming the ...trouble makers...ohh..we ve found a few irainians...who woulda thunk it

   

I wouldn't be all that surprised if a lot of these "Iraqi" insurgents are actually Iranian Revolutionary Guards and the Syrian Baathist equivalent, similar to the situation in Chechnya where you had regular Pakistani troops wiith their beards grown out "secretly" fighting along side the Chechen rebels.

   

I believe the UN wants to go in there, they are just waiting for Georgy boy to do a mea culpa and if possible look humble before them. But since this administration does not apologize to their own citizens let alone foreigners, this is just a dream. That's the greatest solution I could give. They admit they were short sited and ask for help.

   

The US might have to do that. It does seem to be about the only way out of the mess that Bush has made. I don't think Bush is capable of doing it though...PNAC has too much riding on this.

Hopefully Bush will lose in November and Kerry will be able to bring some sense to the situation. Hopefully the situation will be salvagable at that point.

   

.and what will the un do for the hostages that have been taken?...


not a damn thing I bet....have they even called for a meeting over it?

   

What will Bush do for them, Feeko? So far his answer has been to kill more Iraqis...Iraqis who are demanding they be allowed to run their own country, who are demanding democracy, by the way. All that does is encourage more hostage taking, encourage more violence. So the Americans stand there with their guns and kill innocents more often than they kill the guilty. More Iraqis get mad enough to take a stand. More Americans get killed, more Iraqis get killed. Why? Because George Bush is a greedy little pig-fucker with a messiah complex and a dream of ruling the world.

Maybe if, instead of raping the country and ignoring not just international law, but US military law, the Bushites would have made an honest attempt to move Iraq towards democracy there wouldn't be hostage takings. Maybe if Bremer wouldn't have spent all of his energy trying to make sure that the US remained in control of Iraq's economy the Iraqi people wouldn't have felt the need to stand up and say, "That's enough."
