What is with Muzzies? They pitch a fit and riot over some cartoons, but have no problem attempting to damage or destroy a Mosque. You know, that holy place that they worship (from DefenseLink)
Iraqi police were patrolling yesterday when they found an improvised explosive device near a Samarra mosque’s doorway.
“This action by the terrorists shows they have no respect for Islam and are only concerned about killing innocent civilians,” said Army Lt. Col. Viet Luong, commander of 2nd Battalion, 505th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 82nd Airborne Division. “This bomb was built to cause maximum damage, and because of the heroic action of the Iraqi police, this damage was minimized.”
Well, if they had any respect for Islam, they wouldn't have blown up Mosques and killed their holy leaders many, many, many times.
Also, some good news, which you won't see in any MSM outlet
Yesterday in western Baghdad, Iraqi and coalition forces discovered and freed 23 hostages and arrested six kidnappers.
Combined forces observed kidnappers using two vehicles to block a local bus and force the passengers off. The kidnappers got back into their vehicles and drove in separate directions as Iraqi forces pursued them. The Iraqi soldiers engaged one of the fleeing vehicles just west of a nearby checkpoint, killing one kidnapper and wounding two others with small-arms fire. A kidnap victim was found in the trunk of the suspects’ vehicle.
Iraqi forces followed the other fleeing vehicle until the kidnappers stopped in front of a house nearby. Iraqi forces searched the area for kidnap victims, finding two in the trunk of the vehicle and 20 more inside the house. They detained six kidnappers.
Notice that it was "Iraq forces" which did the following, shooting, and rescuing. Great job, seems they are a slowly learnin'.
Checking ye olde Bloglines, I see that Howie at The Jawa Report decided to conduct a little test of good news/bad news, which included three articles, one of which is the same as the one I used, though his cam from Centcom, mine from DefenseLink.
What did he find? Ten news articles about the bomb being found, several of them with misleading complete BS titles, and only one on the kidnap victims rescue, which happens to be his.
There is the old saying that reporters only cover when the plane crashes, not when it lands successfuly, however, when we are at war, I do believe it would be appropriate, nay, responsible and required, to cover positive news from the war zone.
But that would be against the media's need to Bash Bush.
You really look like a sad little man if I may say so. Nasty little website.
Why bash bush? It ain’t the media, little buddy, it’s the major part of nearly every population in the world that hates him for starting an illegal war. Or don’t you know about that?
So, little American, go back to your Rush Limbaugh and nod as he talks shite. OK?
Iraq’s Sadist Hussein broke 17 United Nation Resolutions? Have you ever seen photos of what he did to his fellow Arabs in Kuwait? His Iraqi para-military thugs hung them with piano wire. Mass graves here, gassed Kurds there, asssssination attempt on Bush #41…My aircrews saw the +800 oil refineries he torched at the end of his Gulf War defeat – Picture a birthday cake with +800 candles burning while blocking out the sun at high
noon. Why did we have 30 RED States of America in 2000 and 31 in 2004? That’s right – because everyone ‘hates’ our 43rd President of the United States, eh? Go back to your CNN, E-TV, M-TV, Cinesex Channels, Desperate Housewives encores,
NBC, CBS and ABC liberal mediums, and don’t forget AIR AMERICA? That’s right – AA went bankrupt! Too bad you didn’t co-sign for SENATOR Al Frankenstein Franken! Happy President’s Day ‘W’ and to our 43 Presidents of the United States of America. February is U.S. Presidents Month in the 31 RED United States of America.
