The headlines scream out…..
U.S. Troops Burned Taliban Bodies

“Under the Geneva Conventions, soldiers must ensure that the “dead are honorably interred, if possible according to the rites of the religion to which they belonged.”
Furthermore, the rules state that bodies should not be cremated, “except for imperative reasons of hygiene or for motives based on the religion of the deceased.”

If you read the article you will see where it says….”The soldiers who burned the bodies said they did so for hygiene reasons.” The Taliban soldiers had been dead for over 24 hours and were begining to become a concern.
And who the heck is Stephen Dupont?

His portfolio or shall we say what it REALLY is…..his AGENDA…. shows us: Children of the Wall in Palestine – boxers in Cuba – Inside Jihad – The Lions Last Roar in Afghanistan.
Please read what Jason Coleman and Dan Riehl have to say. Jason and Dan did an awesome job of research on this.
Wild Thing comment….
I remember when our soldiers were burned in a destroyed vehicle. Then dragged through the streets, dismembered, disemboweled and strung up on a bridge as trophes.And you can read this too from 2004, where they frenzied crowds dragged the burned, mutilated bodies of four American contractors through the streets of a town west of Baghdad on Wednesday and strung two of them up from a bridge after rebels ambushed their SUVs.
Well??? How soon people forget these horrors! And there was NO media outrage at this, but you can bet there will be about our soldiers buring dead bodies of Taliban. Sheesh!
And how many innocent people were burned to death on Sept.11,2001 because of Osama and the Taliban.
As for me I have had it with these agenda seekers and their attempts at attacking our troops. Have we lost our minds to political correctness? We’re fighting a war. Why would we care what Islamic scum think about desecration of DEAD Taliban, when they behead LIVE people? I guess the video of Muslims sawing the head off a live American civilian wasn’t worse? I have had about e-freakin’-nuff! Get the reporters off the front line. We don’t have to see every single thing that occurs in theatre. Enough. The enemy can burn and behead and dangle and dismember and there’s no outcry. Keep the press away and let our troops fight this war like they know how! It is a fact that the Taliban, when they ran Afghanistan, massacred Afghans and skinned their victims …. alive.
I for one, am very sick and tired of hearing ‘we are better, we don’t do that, we are above that’.
So, go ahead and try to impress the world that WE are ‘above that’ and see where we end up. I can tell you where we end up. A woman’s panties placed on the head of a killer is more horrible than a beheading and is grounds for years in prison!!!!!! How insane is that? Our military are ham-strung, no beheading allowed. We are being sooooo ‘above’ the killers that we will all be dead when they say we are so above the terrorists.

Good Grief look at this!
Spanish Judge Issues Warrants for Three U.S. Soldiers
MADRID, Spain — A judge has issued an international arrest warrant for three U.S. soldiers whose tank fired on a Baghdad hotel during the Iraq war, killing a Spanish journalist and a Ukrainian cameraman, a court official said Wednesday.
Judge Santiago Pedraz (search) issued the warrant for Sgt. Shawn Gibson, Capt. Philip Wolford and Lt. Col. Philip de Camp, all from the U.S. 3rd Infantry, which is based in Fort Stewart, Ga.
Jose Couso, who worked for the Spanish television network Telecinco, died April 8, 2003, after a U.S. army tank crew fired a shell on Hotel Palestine (search) in Baghdad where many journalists were staying to cover the war.
Reuters cameraman Taras Protsyuk, a Ukrainian, also was killed.
Pedraz had sent two requests to the United States — in April 2004 and June 2005 — to have statements taken from the suspects or to obtain permission for a Spanish delegation to quiz them. Both went unanswered.
He said he issued the arrest order because of a lack of judicial cooperation from the United States regarding the case.
The warrant “is the only effective measure to ensure the presence of the suspects in the case being handled by Spanish justice, given the lack of judicial cooperation by U.S. authorities,” the judge said in the warrant. Continue reading….

Now wait just a War Time minute! Look we are at War this is not a tea party. Places get bombed and anyone that goes there to do stories, photo journalists etc. they know the risk and if they don’t they better learn fast.

WASHINGTON – The Bush administration is asking Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas to require candidates in next January’s election to renounce violence as a means of easing tensions with Israel, a senior U.S. official said Wednesday.
and this…..
The Bush administration has urged Abbas to dismantle Hamas and other groups considered to be terrorist organizations. While the Palestinian leader has denounced violence, he has not tried to keep the groups from fielding candidates for the legislature.

Well my cyber friends let us not forget what ole terrorist Abbas said………
” The little Jihad has ended
and now the big Jihad is beginning.”
– quote from Terrorist / Prime Minister Mohammad Abbas
OH and let’s not forget this one either……………
In a recent July 8th broadcast, Abbas-controlled PA TV calls to “annihilate the infidels [common reference to US and Western countries]… God, count them and kill them to the last one, and don’t leave even one.”

Wild Thing’s Comment….
Israel’s longtime enemy, and its enemy today, is of the very same terror that was launched on us on Sept.11,2001…. but, if less confounding, more routine and more tolerated. It is the world’s acceptance of the routineization of this killing of Jews that has so
affronted Israel, its allies, and others like myself . Abbas will never keep his word, he is incapable of doing so. He is after all one of them, one of the terrorists! It is time to show that Jewish blood is NOT cheap and those who shed it will pay a tremendous price !
President Bush can ask Abbas to do many things, but will Abbas do as asked? Or will there be more demands on Israel? I pray we stand along side Israel always and let Abbas know very clearly where we stand.

Over at American Citizen Soldier he has a video called ” Give War A Chance”. It is really good!
It is “filmed, edited, created and lived by Buck Sargent”.
Buck Sargent serves on active duty as a infantry noncommissioned officer in the United States Army. He was deployed to Afghanistan from 2003-2004 in support of Operation Enduring Freedom and is currently serving in Mosul, Iraq on a 12 month combat tour.

Saddam was a brutal dictator, a head-of-state who waged war on his neighbors and his own people. He ruled over his people with an iron fist, using torture and murder. From 1979 until 2003, Saddam Hussein ruled Iraq. Saddam supported terrorism in Israel, paying the families of Palestinian suicide bombers. He provided safe haven for Abu Abbas and other international terrorists.
And now he is finally going to be on trial for his many crimes!
But wait…….something is wrong with this picture! But of course it is the lefties, one that I will mention now is the New York Times! They are concerned, wringing their hands at the water fountain, having sleepless nights, moaning and groaning in the hallways and why?….They are concencerned that Saddam will not get a fair trial.

On Wednesday, 22 months after he was dragged from his hiding place in an underground bunker, Saddam Hussein will appear in an Iraqi court to answer for the brutalities he inflicted on his fellow Iraqis. But what should be a moment of triumph for his victims is instead stirring concern about the fairness and competence of the court itself.

Read on my friends of truth and those like me that are fed up with PC!

…Western human rights groups and legal experts have warned that the former dictator is unlikely to get a fair trial, and that the probable outcome, a death sentence, will be what the tribunal’s harshest critics have described as “victor’s justice.”

.

Hello-o-o-o-ooooo! He has had enough justice just being able to be alive as long as he has in his jail cell. Give me a break! True Justice for Saddam will be to put an end to his life!

Three cheers for my Denver Brocnos! They won Denver 28 to N.E. 20. So I am a happy camper!
I am a Cubs fan so I don’t have anyone I am cheering for in particular for the World Series………….BUT………. tonight
La Rossa was thrown out of the game and also Jim Edmonds. Now here is the thing OK??!! These games are very important, they determine who goes to the World Series. Sooooooo shouldn’t the umpires be a little more patient with the players and managers in this kind of situation? The homeplate umpire is a jerk! He had no patience at all and boom! wack! LaRossa was thrown out first.
I know the rules, honest, but tempers are hotter in these playoffs, the games mean more then ever and, well…these are just my thoughts on what happened tonight.
Anyway, St.Louis lost and IMO all that throwing people out does is effect the mindset of the team.
So the best thing for sports today was Bronco’s WON tonight!

God Bless America Signs Offend The Ever So Sensitive Atheists
An atheist group is complaining about two signs posted outside a city hall in New York state that declare “God Bless America.”
But the signs hung by a Long Island official outside the town hall of Babylon, N.Y., are perfectly legal, according to a group specializing in constitutional law that has volunteered to defend them.
“The phrase ‘God bless America’ does not violate the Constitution,” said Gary McCaleb, senior counsel for the Alliance Defense Fund.
