#1 Shoot...sounds like a waste of good lighter fluid to me.

#3 "Offensive to Muslims"? What isn't?
Oh, I know. Next time just cut the heads off. They seem cool with that.

#4 "if possible, according to the rites of the religion to which the deceased belonged."
Why should our soldiers tend to the Muslim religous rites of people who regarded them as infidels and tried to kill them? Why should anyone have to participate in religous rites outside their own religion? I'm not for abusing bodies, but dead enemies should not get special priviledges.

#5 This is disappointing. Where are the insults referring to the talib's mustaches or their monkey and pig sires? I'm sure a First Sargeant could have shamed the talibs into committing suicide on the spot with insults incorporating goats, girls, and (and nonexisting taliban) gonads. Send these soldiers to a refresher course at the Defence Insult School.

#6 An enemy combatant can hope for nothing more than swift onset lead poisoning. Many other more percussive alternatives do not even leave sufficient remains to identify.

Of course, our troops' actions can only be far more heinous than that of those who merely saw someone's head off at a languid pace.

#11 Smokin' Talibs! Do they sizzle or simply simmer?

#12 Hey, these people like blowing themselves up. The fellas were just helping them spontaeously combust. No harm in that...

#13 There are plenty of people in Afghanistan who despise the Taliban. Next time PLEASE just drop these Taliban (dead or alive) off with THEM!

Then simply be prepared to say: "Oh crap, they BURNED them???"

it's best to have practiced saying this on front of a mirror

#14 Michael Jackson was burned once during a Pepsi commerical, and all he said was "Ouww".

Okay, what did one burning taliwacker say to the PsyOpns guy? Stop, you're burning me up!

#15 They look and smell like Jawas [or at least tall ones], so what would do with them?
