BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- Iraqi insurgents used two children as a cover to get through a checkpoint in Baghdad and then blew up the car while the kids were still inside, a U.S. general said Tuesday.

Two adults jumped from the car, leaving the children in the back. Moments later, the car exploded, witnesses said.

The car went through a checkpoint Sunday and parked by a market across the street from a school, said Maj. Gen. Michael Barbero, deputy director for regional operations in the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

And here we are being compared to Nazi Germany with our "torture" techniques, while these *******s are using children as cover for blowing up bombs. Oh no, don't try to condemn the acts of these people, they are just freedom fighters:roll: Its Bushs fault these kids are being used like this......
 
What these animals are doing in the name of Allah is sickining. Useing innocent children to murder for there god. We have to stand strong and defeat these monsters. Is anyone here on this forum still willing to call them freedom fighters? ~ Sgt Rock
 
We have known the terrorists to act in this manner, they have no form of honor or any idea of "civilized" behavior. Even in war there are rules because there are just some things you do not do. But they have bombed all girl elementary schools, used bystanders as shields, use kids to do their dirty work, etc.

Oh for the love of God, who the hell on this forum would condone such a cowardly and disgusting act? Gimme a freakin' break!

Now back to the topic at hand. This story is absolutely horrible and I certainly hope that there will be justice for those poor children. Just a reminder to y'all... not all Muslims are hard core. I'm sure many were disguested with this too.

This is awful. And to think libs want to abandon this effort and run away. Sickening.

No, we need to keep fighting for the Shiites and their death squads who'll put an end to this kind of behavior.
 
These two in particular should be staked out in the desert to bake in the sun. Anyone associated with them (as in their group, cell, whatever) should be shot on sight. It should be our number one priority in Baghdad to hunt down and kill those involved with this particular situation. If we are there to protect the Iraqi people, then this is definitely a good way to show our sincerity.

There are those that would seek to place the blame elsewhere. I don't think anybody condones this attack, but there are people that are willing to forgoe the responsibility that these people have for doing this disgusting act, and place the blame somewhere else...

Please quote where anyone here has deflected blame for using kids as shields and then murdering them. Thanks in advance.

Please quote where I stated anybody on this site has expressed this sentiment. It was not intended to be a specific remark to any poster, but rather the ongoing general sentiment that all deaths in Iraq are to be pinned on Bush. And for that there are plenty of posts. Just ask Billo....

LMFAO. Nice blanket statement that lumps all us 'sickening' PEOPLE who want this war (unjust it is) over.

Now, I'm sure everyone understands that there is not one person here who does not find this utterly sickening. I do not condone it, and the blame falls squarely on the sick SOB's who did it - EVERYONE can agree on that (I feel confident to speak for everyone on this) Does it even need to be broached?

That said, and I know I will take much flak for this, Bush hasn't taken enough blame for starting all this. Most agree that Bush lied to get us into this war. That lie costs thousands of American lives, innocent Iraqi's, the reputation of America as a whole, sickening incidents like this have RISEN by 100's of percents, and on and on. (and counting)

Clinton was impeached for getting his .... WTF is Bush still doing in office?

I'm not shifting the blame to Bush, it should never have shifted off of him.

Peace
 
Pretty all-inclusive assertion. Care to define "most" a little more carefully?
Fair enough.
"We know where they (WMD) are, they are in the area around Tikrit and Baghdad and east, west, south and north of that." - Donald Rumsfeld, March 2003

"No one ever said that we knew precisely where all of these agents were, where they were stored," - Condi Rice, June 2003


Whoever sees this as a blatant misrepresentation (aka- lie) can be put in the 'most' category.

It may have been unfair to say 'most' - I'll give it to you.

Most of the people I speak with or know, are of the belief that Bush misrepresented - on purpose - the case for a war with Iraq.

This is why terrorist need to be rounded up,shot in the head and their ashes mixed in dog ****.These people are nothing more than cockroaches in human form and deserve to be treated as such.
 
No one has mentioned the fact that these were the real children of the couple. Now if I was a freedom fighter I'd be fighting to make a bad place a better place for my children, wouldn't I. Isn't that the object ...the future. And these two SOBs murdered their own kids just to please themselves. They should be drawn a quartered but the fanatics will call them heroes. And we are trying to give these bast ards democracy?

You didn't quote Bush :rofl

How about this? Instead of turning this into a partisan issue, which is not the point of this thread, how about we all agree that torture is what should be done to the slime that did this heinous act to this children. And that Muslim terrorists, not all Muslims need to be eliminated. Who's with me on this?

I'm down with that.

Not to be picky, and I'm sure it's implied, but why not just say 'terrorists' need to be eliminated instead of 'Muslim terrorists'?

And, yes I'm witcha...

Peace

Just keeping things to the theme of the thread, but, yes, I'd go along with the all terrorists statement. :cool:
