#1 Just when I thought it was impossible to hate the towelheads more than I already do they prove me wrong yet again. What excuse could anyone have to target children. This is so far beyond sick.

#3 Have we already forgotten the "butterfly" mines?

#4 I say again...the islamo-fascist is criminally insane and should be treated as such.

The western world needs to bring back the concept of the Devil's Island for those that aren't executed. Maybe open in the Antarctic. If they escape..so what.

#5 Have we already forgotten the "butterfly" mines?

Unlike a booby-trapped doll, butterfly mines were not specifically designed for children. The link describes the mines as 'Brightly colored'. I suspect this is 'misleading' at best. A little googling indicates they were made in green, brown and white colors for camoflage. Let's not play the moral equivalence game. Booby-trapped dolls are depraved.

#6 "It was not immediately clear when the find was made or the suspects arrested."

The level of depravity of the insurgents is already well documented. (ie. targeting hospitals) I'm not gorging on this one too much.

#7 Let's not play the moral equivalence game. Booby-trapped dolls are depraved.

Wasn't playing any games. The Soviets were nearly as sick and as dangerous as the Islamists are. Brightly colored or not, scads of children were killed and maimed by the butterfly mines. This latest only confirms my suspicions about the Islamists.

I strongly agree with anymouse's suggestion that a Devil's Island be established for all the Islamists that Europe convicts but refuses to execute. We need these twisted sh!ts isolated and contained in a difficult to reach locale. Preferrably on the moon, without suits.

#8 "This is the same type of doll as that handed out on several occasions by US soldiers to children"

Interrogate the sh!t out of the two detainees. If the trail leads back to Iran, start hurting them now! Whoever tried to pull this crap needs some major parking lot therapy.

#9 I'm sure the MSM will ignore this - or somehow twist the truth to blame it on Bush.

I think we should hold these up at every press conferences.

Place one (live) on a stand - right in the center of the U.S Senate floor - just as a reminder. Stick another in the center of the UN General ASSembly.

Send one (live) to Cindy Shithan and company with a note: 'From your freedom fighters, with love'.

#10 Not Antarctica. The penguins don't deserve these creeps. Doesn't Siberia still have a few gulags left?

Yes, hold the dolls up at press conferences. Keep reminding the world just what kind of monsters we're dealing with here.

Question: Have there even been any press conferences lately? I have missed the news in the last month because we've had two deaths in the family.

David Brooks's column the other day, mostly about Murtha's bad choices and timing, did make one point about Bush that is appropriate here. Brooks pointed out that FDR got on the radio one day in 1942, told the American public to open their maps, and told the public step by step what progress we were making, where we were winning and where we were losing, and why. Bush needs to give more information and show that he knows what's needed where. He lacks FDR's stage presence, and he has to deal with a pack of vipers in the media. But our leaders have to keep showing that they know what's going on.
