#1 If this is true, these people have gotta have some devastation laid on them. Take a few prisoners, for some intel and then to go home and tell the tale, but wipe these people up.

#3 Truly, these maggots need to be pulverized. Flesh flayed, bones crushed and ground into dust. No corner of hell is hot enough for these scum.

#4 Orson Scott Card, a democrat hawk, said it first (at his "Ornery American" website): - we should have started with Syria. That pipeline nation has to be shut down.

#5 If ever there was an opportunity to avenge the Beirut barracks bombings this is it! Shoot for the belly, Marines! Make 'em suffer!

#6 It took 20 years, but payback will be final.

#7 Oooo - this could be sweet, indeed. I like the idea of direct payback. Sigh. Why is it that when the really clean fight, one with such clarity that there is no doubt in anyone's mind, comes along I find I'm an old fart. It. Really. Sucks.

#8 I hope the Marines don't stop when there's 281 dead Hezbollah fedayeen. Maybe a brief pause for ululation, but don't stop...

#9 These morons still seem to think that all you need to kill US Marines is a truck load of explosives and human guidance system. The Rules of Engagement have changed and they're not the rules that the morons are familiar with.

#10 How is it that people who don't even have a state actually have an army on foreign soil? Wipe 'em out. Any that are accidentally left over can be shipped off for a loooooong Carribean holiday at Gitmo.
