AIRSTRIKE KILLS AL-ZARQAWI

[TJ.Brk]

So let me get this straight:

showing a photo of a dead man lying on blood-soaked concrete = bad
showing a framed photo of a dead man lying on blood-soaked concrete = OK

In that part of the world yes.

[Dexter Rutecki]

You gotta admit, the frame gives it that certain je ne sais quoi we all look for in shots of our favorite dead terrorists.

[MassLiberal]

On this board? You might be right. With the exception of the odd random wacko post. But who this guy anyway? Probably one of those odd wackos too.

And you are right again, The entire City of San Fran, berkley too, is not a fair representation of the entire left. All those bored trustfunders.

I have seen some funny video of opposition at the protests. Good entertainment. i am sure you know who I am talking about. the "other" bored trustfunders.

Who, the people in North Hampton, MA? It wouldn't surprise me, those people have different protests every week. I think some of them have those eraserboard placards so they can quickly change their message if they are caught off guard and have a "save indonesian babies" sign at a protest against ant farming in brazil.

dude, I cant believe you have not heard of these guys. hardcore neocons that go around all the protests and wave these random signs. they have a chatroom. You should go in there, just prepare yourself well for the anger you will feel. The anti war vidoe's are fucking funny though.

I saw them In SF at the first march. check out that video. I consider it comedy. www.protestwarrior.com

Dude give some respect where due - the U.S. military has such an overwhelming advantage in picture framing technology it's something of which you should be proud.

[Tippster]

Hey, they got his spiritual advisor and 5 other assholes as well....

[ddsnake]

This will make zero difference......they probably didn't even kill the guy they said they did....it's propaganda........woo whoooo....big victory........what a joke.

Very true and...

I'm sure you'll all go pound one out later to that pic.

O'BRIEN: No, no. And we have spoken before, and I'm well aware of that. But at some point, one would think, is there a moment when you say, 'I'm glad he's dead, the man who killed my son'?

BERG: No. How can a human being be glad that another human being is dead?

I have a hunch many of the family members of those now serving in Iraq might feel differently.

Get a few more framed pictures of these freaks and we might get some cheaper gas.

Oil has fallen 1.7% to below $70 for the first time in two weeks after the death of al-Qaeda's leader in Iraq, where crude exports have been curbed by frequent sabotage attacks and instability.

It's amazing how transparent the news organizations are about their hatred of bush and the Iraq war. how long did it take to get Berg's dad on the horn? 3.2 seconds?

cj, glad to see you watched DaveTV's emoticon infomercial. was he wearing the question mark suit again?

And all it takes is a minor disagreement, jealousy, or any other small infraction to start that cycle. If you are shooting at removing the source, I think you will need to remove humanity from the equation or just start passing around huge bags of weed.

[seatosky]

Then why did'nt he?

"Zarqawi supposedly traveled to Iraq to have his wounded leg treated at a hospital run by Uday Hussein. In the summer of 2002, Zarqawi was reported to have settled in northern Iraq, where he joined the Islamist Ansar al-Islam group that fought against Kurdish-nationalist forces in the region.[8]"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abu_Musab_al-Zarqawi

Stick to the truth Seatosky, there is plenty critism to draw from it. No need to lie.

What Saddam may or may not have done about Al-Zarqawi is irrelevant. Was Al-Zarqawi a legitimate threat to Saddam at the time? I don't know, but the fact that he was fighting against Kurdish nationalists, who Saddam often killed in large numbers, makes me think that Saddam didn't have much of a problem with this guy.

The point is, there are other ways to eliminate individuals than flattening entire city blocks. As soon as you say it's OK to kill innocent civilians in your drive to eliminate specific enemies, you become the bad guys.

[BLOOD SWEAT STEEL]

The point is, there are other ways to eliminate individuals than flattening entire city blocks. As soon as you say it's OK to kill innocent civilians in your drive to eliminate specific enemies, you become the bad guys.

That would make pretty much any country ever involved in any war, anywhere, at any given time - the bad guys.

A novel thought, [and I'm not saying it's right or wrong...] but that's just not how the world works.

Yeah, two 500 pound, precision bombs. Sounds kind of funny. How precise can a 500 pound bomb be? Sure, it will hit it's target, and blow the fuck out of everything in the area as well.

Two to the chest, one to the head would have been a better PR killing than 1,000 pounds of explosives. In a perfect world.

open your eyes gyp, Fox interviewed hiim too:

PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - Michael Berg, whose son Nick was beheaded in Iraq in 2004, said on Thursday he felt no sense of relief at the killing of the al Qaeda leader in Iraq and blamed President Bush for his son's death.
Asked what would give him satisfaction, Berg, an anti-war activist and candidate for U.S. Congress, said, "The end of the war and getting rid of George Bush." The United States said its aircraft killed Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the insurgent leader who masterminded the death of hundreds in suicide bombings and was blamed for the videotaped beheading of Nick Berg, a U.S. contractor, and other captives.


"I don't think that Zarqawi is himself responsible for the killings of hundreds of thousands of people in Iraq," Berg said in a combative television interview with the U.S. Fox News network. "I think George Bush is.
"George Bush is the one that invaded this country, George Bush is the one that destabilized it so that Zarqawi could get in, so that Zarqawi had a need to get in, to defend his region of the country from American invaders."
Berg said Bush was to blame for the torture of Iraqi prisoners by U.S. soldiers at Abu Ghraib prison near Baghdad. "Yeah, like George Bush didn't OK the torture and death and rape of people in the Abu Ghraib prison for which my son was killed in retaliation?" he told his Fox interviewers.
