#1 Sorry iff I'm too traditional or conservative for my own good but I still say women per se have no place in the combat zone. or near the combat zone.

#2 It is sadly apparant that we needed to deal harshly with these people in the beginning. The terrorists obviously have plenty of friends in the Sunni Triangle. The terrorists will shoot their wad to create as much chaos and death to break our will. After all, they have friends in the senate.

#3 God bless them, they sure put it on the line. They're heros who gave it all for freedom, ours and the Iraqis.

#4 Specific reasons for this type of targeting:

The females accompany the males to do the searches of females durign raids and checkpoints.

And Joe, the problem is there are not front line, nor rear areas. THe cowards we are fighting kill their own women and children pretty indiscriminately. And they got lucky and managed to hit a bunch of Marines this time.

Thus goes the pride of Arab Manhood - killing and maiming women, via suicide bombs.

This is all the more reason to castrate and emasculate any and all convicted Al Qaeda found responsible for this - before they are execute them by hanging (over a pig pen). Send them to Allah with their own testicles and penis in their mouths. And be sure to post pictures of it to their relatives. They'll get the message.

#6 "They (Women Marines) don't have a nickname, and they don't need one. They get their basic training in a Marine atmosphere, at a Marine Post. They inherit the traditions of the Marines. They are Marines."

(Lieutenant General Thomas Holcomb, USMC 1943.)

#8 If the ass hats want to escalate, we should oblige them. How much more patience should the USA have for the PC war?

#9 AP, I fear you are correct. The terrorists have quite a few friends in the Senate. Teddy Kennedy being the Number One. I really wish I could adress the Senate and remind each and every one that they only speak for the people who elected them, period. They do not speak for the USA. The populace voted in a majority for the current administration. Only the President speakes for the US. I would tell Mr. Kennedy that , even though he has some faults, the President has never got drunk, run his car off a bridge, and drowned a young woman. Shut the fuck up!

Right, they know what happens when they take on our women directly: Raven 42.
