I missed that the first time--too bad, too, as I was really flush last year and that's the kind of humor that really loosens up my checkbook. Oh well.

And can you believe Sadr's militia is so lame? No wonder we turned a blind eye to them, they're a bunch of dipshits led by a dick yanker. Anything less than about 5:1 kill ratio fighting jihadi scum who actually want to die is pretty pathetic.

Al-Sadr vs Al-Queda ----

A cage match made in hell. You can laugh; you can cheer; you can in good faith want them both to lose.

What Iraq needs is more of this red on red activity. However many are lost on either side, it will not be as if Iraq is losing much of its future.

Bring It On . ------- PLEASE.

Tragic. More innocent Iraqi civillians killed as a result of the American occupation.

While it's nice to see Al Sadr and the other terrorists "in a heated debate", they really need to be more effective at actually offing one another.
It reminds me of gang violence here; only the innocent bystanders seem to suffer.
In a video at openfire.blog, someone comments that the Mahdi army is to be engaged at every opportunity.
Is this Monkey Tater Al Sadr's group they're talking about and shooting at?

The Mahdi 'army' is just a bunch of thugs and cowards. They are really tuff when they beat and kill college students and women who decided they are human being and not property. In a real fight they get owned like the little bitches they are.

Well said, isayalotofthings! I fought those miserable cocksuckers for a year (Mar 04-Mar 05) with the 1st Cav, and your characterization is spot on. The Mahdis have some brave members (though not as many as before the Ironhorse Brigade had their way with them), but the average Mahdi is just an illiterate asshole with no skills, no guts, and no future. If we could have killed every single one of them, I'd be a much happier man.

FC,

Enjoyed your blogging and hope to see you around.

Thanks for doing the job, brother.

Thanks for doing what you could at the time. Frankly had you been able to deep-six the whole lot, everyone except that moronic little fascist Al-Sadr would be much happier.

I love it when we win no matter what happens! BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA.

I know that I should be used to this by now, but I still want to puke...sigh...

and three American soldiers died in separate attacks the day before

Completely unrelated to the story, but it's just now reflex in the MSM: Iraq story
