Sunnis offer $15 million dollars for Rumsfeld, Sanchez and Kimmitt
2004-04-28
Wonder whose money they plan to use?

Iraqi Sunnis hold up a poster advertising a purported reward of U.S. $15 million for the heads of U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, right, coalition forces commander Lieutenant-General Ricardo Sanchez, center, or military spokesman Brigadier-General Mark Kimmitt in Fallujah, Iraq , 37 miles, 60 kilometers west of Baghdad, Wednesday, April 28, 2004.

#34  Frank G, Chevy will be a good buy next summer when the new Silverado comes out. The way I understand the Familyfirst program - I am hazy on many of my benefits but my siblings like to use them - stockholders qualify for the program. It may be one of those deals similar to Wrigley where if you buy one share of stock, Mr Wrigley sends you a gum sample pack at X-mas.

#32  I know you had your eye on the Studebaker Shortbed, but they weren't offering the Off-Road Grizzly Special Trim Bundle and, well...

#31  3.9% - yep.....oh, wait, you meant....damn!

#30  Well, at least the interest rate was very very LOW! Lol!

#29  I'm CERTAINLY not "Superhose" - I had to buy a 4X4 F150 as compensation, dammit (wipes tears)

#28  Lol! Ok, that does it -- when Fred gets back I'm sending him this thread and demanding he check the IP's - methinks SH and Frank G are one and the same! Prolly "Shipman" and "muck4doo", too. All the same devious twisted howl-at-the moon personality! Lol!

#26  Lol! SH, your memory / power of recall is astonishing!

#25  Angie, Dar and Big Ed. I think I found the Hollywood star in the picture.

#24  I think it looks like a jihadi cereal box--"Fallujah Flakes." And what does everybody think of "shorty" holding the poster (the one with the red scarf and funny glasses)? These Iraqis--they come in all shapes and sizes and colors, don't they?

I also think it's great how one of them is holding a grenade in his hand--just like he'd be holding his pathetic . . . never mind.

#23  Waitaminnut. Read the flyer again.

It says they have offices. Seems to me, we know where to go and find them...

#22  The entire image looks like a Photoshopped pastiche. Why is Ginger staring into the back of the flier? Shouldn't he be looking grim and war-like, determined to meet the infidel with fire and sword?

The rest of 'em don't look overly concerned with current developments, either. Their calm dispositions must be due to the superior skills of the ubiquitous Mr. Abdul Kader Saadi, AP photographer to the stars and the Islami... blipblipblip ...ice offices in Iraq.

#21  M4D thanks to you I have to think every time how I spell..

Just don't make the Hooked on Phonics thing permanent and you'll be okay. :)

#20  LOL. M4D thanks to you I have to think every time how I spell Vcie President Cheneys' name.

#19  Would explain the red-head.

Yeah, I know, I know - al-Douri. Still, there can't be that many of them in Fallujah...

#18  Are you sure those are Sunnis? They could be the St. Petersburg Democratic Club.

#17  Nice of them to write the sign in English, too, for all those Iraqis, Syrians, Iranians, Paleo, etc., who don't read Arabic. Such thoughtful people.

#16  why their not go straight to top and offer reward for chainey? these guys need shot for the top and stop reach for small potatoes if they ever going get anywere in life.

#15  Remember these are the idiots that marched all over the world carrying signs that showed Sesame Street's Bert sitting next to Osama bin Laden.

#14  what I think is interesting is the big white space where someone very carefully photoshopped someone out of the picture.

If we killed these people for threatening our to kill our leaders like this, it would send a much clearer picture that Mr. Nice Guy doesn't live here anymore.

#12  Soooooo cool. Soooooo macho. Sooooo incredibly funny that they can get themselves worked up into such a frenzy over a propaganda leaflet. I'm sure Rumsfeld will have difficulty sleeping tonight.

#11  Mike - This is to say nothing of Salome, who wanted John the Baptist's head on a silver platter.

#10  Sounds like a bad Sam Peckinpah movie . . .

"Bring Me the Head of Defense Secretary Rumsfeld"

#9  Also, keep publishing photos like that. Whe get a might pissed off. Who do they think we are? the Spanish?, the French?

I think some Marine sniper has a bullet with each of these "gentlemen's" name on it.

Someone ought to say, "put the grenade down Habib. You are pissin' off the visitors."

Gimme a break. . . .

#8  Who's that ginger-whiskered Arab on the left there?

Yeah, Angie S., what movie was he in?

He looks familliar. All those Hollywood leftys look alike to me. I can't place him.

#7  Angie--LOL! I was just thinking the same thing about the many fighting techniques of sensei Rummy!

I also love how they translate it nicely for our media to suck up. Were there any "Baby Milk Factory" t-shirts in the audience?

#6  What's worth mentioning is that these guys feel they have to offer money so that someone else will do the job. After all, two of those individuals on the paper are IN Iraq already, so it shouldn't require too much effort to grab either of them. Am I right, cowards? So what do you say, boys? You guys up to the task?

#3  The fools! Don't they know who they're up against?? Can't they see Rumsfeld using the Twin Hypno-planes combined with the Grimace of Doom?? The weaklings are no match for Gesture Master Rumsfeld!

Who's that ginger-whiskered Arab on the left there?
