Question for our Iraq Veterans, Did/could journalist carry weapons for protection while in Iraq during US Military occupation?
View Quote


As a journalist embedded with the US military you were not allowed to carry anything which
could be construed to be a weapon, including a knife, multi-tool or any sharp or pointed instrument.
Period.






What happened outside the wire was entirely up the guys you were with............
No one wanted to end up in a video like that..........

I respectfully disagree. I know what these animals do and watching their videos does not add to the reality. Watching their videos is exactly what they want. It furthers their cause.
It is another form of terrorism. I will no longer give them the satisfaction.

I've seen these things. It is not something I believe most people would gain any benefit from viewing. If you need watch an enemy butcher someone to appreciate the need to exterminate them, then by all means. For me, just knowing what they've done and what they're capable of is enough. They are sub-human and need to be destroyed with extreme prejudice. It's unfortunate that their destruction will likely require substantial collateral damage. My only fear is that the American public will not have the stomach to allow what is necessary to complete the mission. They need to understand that this is not Vietnam. Most Americans suffer from short term memory. I believe it will take another attack on American soil before the sleeping giant awakens to turn off the reality shows and get down to real world business.This of course, is only my humble opinion.

An excellent look to see how these cock sucking pig fuckers think and their warped ideas about splitting the United States





Going over there and videoing them may be lunacy , but at least make use of their findings the best we can .




VICE News reporter Medyan Dairieh spent three weeks embedded with the
Islamic State, gaining unprecedented access to the group in Iraq and
Syria as the first and only journalist to document its inner workings.

Damn, you are obtuse.

A couple well trained ISIS members (not like those half-assed Boston donkeys) with western passports hit a crowded venue or two in a US city and it will be a huge cluster-fuck.

So what does The Messiah do now?  ISIL has murdered one American and is threatening to murder another unless we stop our air campaign (such as it is)?

Does he stop?  Does he continue?  Does he expand it to incl Syria?  Will he say or do ANYTHING?

I might vaguely remember something. Odd, the things the media chooses to report on and what they choose to ignore. They like to say that the world is safe cause Obama says so.

The irony is the masked dude who did it is a hard ass on camera but becomes a blubbering, lying, "I didn't do it", pussy when he gets captured and his identity revealed.



In return, we should capture 5 of their guys, throw them in a pig pen, then proceed to hang them upside down from a cross in the burning sun for a slow death. That out to rile them up....

Those people have been killing each other since before Jesus, and will likely still be doing so after He has come again. I say stop risking our people protecting those who don't want us there, leave and let them continue. This time, we can't even say we're there because of oil(the protesters' rally cry with Bush). Bring our people home to defend us if we're attacked, let the fighting continue until the problem solves itself.

If the border is so easy to penetrate, and these dudes hate America so much, why aren't we seeing these sleepers so often said to exist in arfcom threads blazing away in shopping malls every other weekend?

Occam's razor suggests these vaunted sleeper cells are bullshit. It's almost as if Arabs are into local cavalry-based conflicts.
