Didn't I Say Shirts?

A suspected insurgent asks residents for mercy after they caught him planting explosives under civilian vehicles, at a busy area in Baghdad, January 3, 2005.

From Reuters, but found on Radio Free Roider.

I'm no fan of vigilante justice (well, okay, I am).

It's nice to see some people in Iraq care enough to take matters into their own hands rather than running away.

All Iraq needs is a critical mass of Bernard Goetzs, and the war is as good as won.

Cheers,
Dave at Garfield Ridge

Certainly a well-fed chap, this one.

Posted by: addison on January 4, 2005 12:48 AM

They are very brave opponents, until you capture them. Then they whine like your kid sister. I speak from experience on that.

addison,

Well, they're the starving poor we've created by globalization.

You can just see the ravening hunger in the man's distended, rather porcine, belly.

Why do they hate us?

Because they're too hungry to think straight.

Posted by: ace on January 4, 2005 01:13 AM

Well, ok, but the obvious question is, did he actually get mercy? Anybody know? Followup, please.

Posted by: CraigC on January 4, 2005 01:16 AM

Should I dare ask what you did with your kid sister?

Posted by: Cedarford on January 4, 2005 01:38 AM

Jesus fucking Christ, puce. What the fucking fuck, over?

Cedarford, you dimwitted fuck, if you ever manage Reading Comprehension 101, you'll realize that SGT Dan didn't do it with his kid sister, he did it with yours. Now go polish your jackboots and let the adults get back to their conversation.

Some loose shit there. ace is right, "insurgent"--the guys get shirts!

Posted by: Sean M. on January 4, 2005 02:21 AM

I thought that guy was covered.

Posted by: ace on January 4, 2005 02:24 AM

Wow, I thought everyone had heard of puce. He was all the bloggin' rage back during the war. His legacy, I believe, will be that he found 43 distinct ways to spell "Americans are fat and dumb."

I look at this photo, and I can't help but ask myself: now, really, just think how much better this toad would look with a pair of panties on his head...

Posted by: Clioman on January 4, 2005 08:15 AM

Wow, just like on COPS, watch out for the guy with no shirt on.

Posted by: Alex on January 4, 2005 10:43 AM

This is the deadly face of the "insurgents," old, gray and fat? He looks like an aging Chickenhawk from a leather bar. But his hair is perfect!

Posted by: 72VIRGINS on January 4, 2005 11:07 AM

Ace,I saw this on your site and commented on the picture at Michael Totten's blog, crediting your post.
He has now posted this photo but I got the credit. Not my fault man,but it was my first hat-tip so I have you to thank.
Keep up the good work.I just like the credit part of the deal.

HD Miller had a posting of an insurgent labeled "Hey,Hey, Hey, It's Fat Ali!" a while back. Wonder if it's the same guy or if there's a serious chub issue in the insurgency.

I suspect if you were a Baathist under Saddam you ate pretty good.

I don't support vigiliante justice when there is a credible and legitimate legal system in place to handle these issues. If you're in the old west or in free Iraq, though, I think you get a little latitude. Hope they made it count, and then he got turned over to Army Intelligence.

Important Message from Recent Convert to Christianity and Yet Super-Serious Christian Tuq'r Qarlson: Actually Muslims love Jesus, it's Trump and his neocons who hate him
Tucker Carlson Network
@TCNetwork

The people in charge [Jews, of course -- ace] don't want you to know this, but Muslims love Jesus.

Islam reveres Him as a major prophet and messenger of the Lord, believes He performed miracles, and states that He will return to Earth to defeat the Antichrist. That's why Donald Trump's painting depicting himself as the Son of God offended the president of Iran. It was an attack on his religion as well as Christianity.

Trump's trolling tweet was ill-advised, but Tucker is just lying when he claims the Christianity-hating President of Iran was "offended" by this.
He's one step away from announcing his official conversion to Islam. He literally never stops praising Islam. Well, he suddenly became Christian two years ago, there's not much stopping him from converting again.
You can track Tuq'r's official conversion to Islam with this Bingo card.
