#1 I don't think we had Apache Helos in the 19th Century. Sure we can give it another go if they can. Excellent doctoring of original.. ROFL.

#2 "We don’t care if we win or lose."

They know they have already lost.

#3 The Paras are the hard boys of the British Army. I'm sure they are looking forward to it.

#4 Maybe we should respond to their endless pronouncements with jokes, like "How many Taliban does it take to screw a pig?", and "Why does wearing woman's clothing make Osama feel young again?"

#5 Translation: "If you keep sending your 'children' here, our ass is fried".

#6 When they are needed, I will order them to start...

Apparently the Taliban doesn't subscribe to the leadership-from-the-front principle.

#7 Am I the only one that hopes that one of these "journalists" gets to see some live battle action while they are guests of the Taliban? I'd just love to see them write about what it's like to have shrapnel in your butt.

#8 Brazenly manning a roadblock. Until they hear a chopper or see a Humvee. Then they scurry away like roaches to strongarm the hicks in another town. These guys are a bunch of clowns. Our guys don't sound the least bit scared of them, neither do the Canucks or the Brits.

#9 'Do not send your children here. We will kill them'

I think he means 'if your children are schoolgirls', given their recent track record against such hardened targets.

#10 We will also mix our metaphors like crazed beasts

Heh.

#11 They send thier children off to blow themselves up. They want to kill our children. Why do they hate children so much? I don't like Hip-Hop either, but it dose'nt make me as mad as these guys are.

#12 "I don't like Hip-Hop either, but it dose'nt make me as mad as these guys are"

*chuckle*

#13 So what's the kill ratio between 'our children' and these Lions of Islam these days? 40? 50? 60? dead 'Lions of Islam' to one 'child'?

Unfortunately if one of these 'Journalists' does get harmed in a firefight they (and the MSM) will simply blame it all on Bush....

#15 Soon these self-styled “soldiers of a moon God” had laid aside their Kalashnikovs and were giving us tea, boasting of their power in Helmand province
They had realized they were comrads fighting for the same cause.

Yup, they're gonna frickin' die laughing at your pathetic, spittle flecked, hyperbole spewing, dirt encrusted stone-age @sses.

#17 I think he's basically saying that although our adults are kicking his butt if we send children instead he'll really show us.

Pretty pathetic. Islamic warriors seem to be windbags.

#18 Do not send your children here. We will kill them.

Good advice - how 'bout well armed, highly trained, battle hardened troops instead?
