Go Iraqis!

Recommended Posts

When the general populace starts to despise an insurgent movement and begins to take action against it, the insurgent movement is in trouble. Killing their countrymen hasn't helped their cause. Bastards.

This sort of thing has been going on since the war began, but this time the liberal media couldn't ignore it.

Yes, instead of just celebrating how good it is to see them stand up for themselves, lets turn it into a conservative versus liberal battle. :S

I really wish both sets would go sit in the corner for awhile.

In any case, it is nice to see the locals taking action.

Aw, c'mon. You just know that somebody from the hardcore lib camp is going to pounce on this thread and say something like "They wouldn't be doing this at all if we weren't there to cause the problem in the first place", or something equally pithy - I just thought I'd pre-empt them and say it for them.

Ain't I the nicest guy? :D

2001: Iraqi government slaughters insurgents. Conservatives condemn vile acts of oppressive, murderous government.

2005: Iraqi government slaughters insurgents. Conservatives applaud noble acts of free, just government, and condemn liberal media for saying anything negative about it.

I somewhat agree with the sentiment, but this was a guy who owned a shop, not the government.

Good for you, by "government" you draw no distinction between dictatorships who use WMDs against their own populace and nacent popular democracies, and by "insurgent" you draw no distinction between political opponents who dare to speak out and terrorists who employ tactics like detonating bombs near places of worship targeting innocent men women and children.

You've hit a new high in moral equivalence, congratulations, the only way you could make more progress is to wear a blindfold and pair of earplugs.

P.S. of course the key to understanding your support for evil is the use of "conservatives" in your post. If the right is right you don't care if the left is wrong, just so long as it's anti-right.

You know I have to agree with this.

Other than some token comment to appear not to be so totally on sided-you don't even have to read the post of some people to know what they are going to say.

What scares me is that neither "side" is totally right. (see there's my token disclaimer)

I wonder how long it took the Marines to show up and confiscate their AK-47s.



What did you mean by this?



I mean, AFAIK the US forces have been systematically disarming the Iraqi population. I've seen video of them confiscating any arms they find in house to house raids. The first thing that sprang to mind when I read this is how did these brave souls manage to hide their AK-47s for so long (it's not really a great mystery) what's not so clear is whether some pencil pusher will have a squad pay a visit and grab their guns since that is (or was) the common practice. Maybe they've stopped doing that after realizing that a well armed militia.......... you know the rest.

Each household is allowed one firearm. This is typically an AK-47.
