SpeedRacer 1 #1 July 6, 2004 http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/3871241.stm Thinga are getting pretty interesting over there. Now one group of militants is turning on another. But surprisingly, this particular group actually has an agenda I agree with (getting rid of Zarqawi).

Kennedy 0 #2 July 6, 2004 Now that's what I'm talking about. Iraqis standing up for themselves. Don't get me wrong, the new Iraqi Army and police force are brave souls, and deserving of thanks by their people, but these guys have laid it all out on the line.

newsstand 0 #4 July 6, 2004 Ah yes vigilanti justice, just what Iraq needs. How 'bout they just track him down and either capture him or turn him in instead of killing him? "Truth is tough.

FallRate 0 #5 July 7, 2004 Ahh, yes: typical knee-jerk criticism of anything remotely positive concerning Iraq. They are offering him the chance to leave the country. FallRate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crozby 0 #6 July 8, 2004 The point is that vigilanties are wrong, period. Supporting this kind of action is taking the simplistic and short term "The enemy of my enemy is my friend" line. This approach may provide a quick fix but just doesn't work in the long term. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Botellines 0 #7 July 8, 2004 Agreed, let´s see. The enemy(SH) of my enemy (Iran) is my friend... The enemy (OBL) of my enemy(URSS) is my friend... Therefore, SH and OBL where friends... There you go, the link Smarty pants GWB foresaw beetwen Irak and Al-Quaeda. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimbarry 0 #8 July 8, 2004 QuoteWhat's the Farci version of "God speed?" Farsi is spoken in Iran. Iraqi's speak Arabic. But yes, I'm totally with you there. Good luck guys!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
