| #22 It's really time to dump the CIA and bring back the OSS. Operate it under WWII rule as well. So that way, if a spanish judge needs to be found stapled to his ceiling, it can quietly be arranged. |

| #21 Lately I'm not convinced the CIA can pull it off. We might have to subcontract that out to the Isaelis The Mosaad are efficient, but messy, but you are right Mike N, at least we'd have the desired final result - that's for sure... There's always the quarter-brick of C4 strapped to the bottom of his car, with the detonator hooked to the accelerator. Where there's a will, there's a way. The Spaniards just aren't as inventive as the "good ol' boys" back home. A Tomahawk in his bathroom window at o-dark-thirty is a bit too obvious... Patriot, you are so Machiavellian today... I like this... |

| #17 The procecutor and members of the Spanish Supreme Court should understand we still have a CIA, such as they are, and if anything does happen to our good soldiers, the Spanish procecutor and "judges" might well wake up freshly deceased... |

| #16 Jules Crittendon of the Boston Herald was there for this event and he has some excellent commentary on it. |

| #15 I say we declare war on Spain for their supporting of the enemy war effort. |

| #14 Spain lacks jurisdiction in Iraq, since it was investigated by the US military. |

| #13 This incident is mentioned in the book "Shooter". It's perfectly clear that it was an accident. The guy was a reporter in a building that was in enemy territory for God sakes. When the Hotel was fired on, the troops had no idea there was press in that building. They had never even heard of the Palestine Hotel(I believe that was the name of it)until after they fired on it. |

| #12 Sounds like Pendejo, sorry....I meant Pedraz....got his panties in a twist because we refused to grant him access to the soldiers. If what the article says is correct (that's always a big if....journos are notorious for only getting half the story right on a good day), he's ignoring Spanish law in the last paragraph. The death was investigated, it's just that the investigation didn't provide the answer that the dead guy's family wanted. |

| #6 Molon labe, jddio Pedraz I don't know what it means in Greek but in Spanish it looks like you are telling Pedraz he ie s Jew (judio= Jew). BTW, Pedraz is a nutso far-left judge, who has tried to twist the law in ordetr to free multi-murdere and totally unrepentant Basque terrorists. He was overruled by a higher court but the problem remains: in Europe you become a judge by passing an exam and the people has no say either directly (elections) or indirectly (appointment by elected representatives) in his nomination and has no way to impeach him. Once you pass the exam unless you accept money or have sex with minors you will end your carreer as a judge without anybody being able to do something about it. |

| #5 On second thought, I agree that legal action is warranted. Anyone who shoots a Reuters beast should be fined $20 for running an unlicensed pest control operation. |

| #4 Molon labe, judio Pedraz. Si no entiendes el Greco, es el mismo (mas o menos) que "besa mi culo." |

| #2 Oh Mohammed on a popsicle stick, for cryin' out loud, THIS again? I'm told by a good source that the Spanish military was devastated and p***ed off when Zerotero the Clueless pulled them out of Iraq. I'd like to see some Spanish officer b**ch-slap Zerotero in public over this - yeah, especially BECAUSE of recent Spanish political history involving the army ..... |

| #1 This article perfectly highlights my bitch about the U.S. Military allowing the names of soldiers involved in an incident like this to be known. Letting their names out puts good troops in danger. |
