Nonsense!
This erroneous report should be immediately

After all, we all know that Iraq does NOT
habor terrorists.
If things continue like this, some ignorant
reporter will allege that they found nukes,

That makes
two of the world's most notorious terrorists
who have been found living in or near
Baghdad. Abu Abbas as described in this
article, and Abu Nidal whose death in Baghdad
in 2002 where he had gone for asylum was
ruled a suicide (with four bullets in his
head).
Now, tell me again how Saddam had no
connection with terrorists. Nobody lived in
Baghdad without his knowledge or approval.
Having the anti-war crowd say there was no
Iraqi-terrorist connection didn't make it
true. But to the Left, truth is irrelevant.

I remember
Leon Klinghoffer's death. He was an elderly
man confined to a wheelchair. He was
deliberately rolled off the deck of the
Achille Lauro to drown in the water below.
There is no punishment too severe for this
sort of human rubbish.
The cost of this war is more than worth
apprehending this scum. It will be
interesting how many more terrorists we find.
I had read a while back that Iraq had PLO
safehouses and training camps scattered
around Baghdad, so when we go in and clean
up, the amount of PLO activity is going to do
down for sure.
Kudos for our Armed Forces!!!!

after being asked if he did not push the

had happened to him and this smirking crud
giggled " maybe he swam for it".
Fortunately now, this "Abu"
whatever will not
be landing in Italy and will not be released
again. He will return to the US and stand
trial for murder one.
I hope they send him to Virginia for trial
because I am going to ask my state delegate
and Senator to sponsor a law that would
require the use of our electric chair for
convicted terrorist murderers. No lethal
injection for these swine.

17's idea is
a good one. Let's expand on it a bit. For
example, tie his feet to the number 2
catapult on an aircraft carrier, and then
take him for a few quick drags face down on
the non-skid flight deck.
Later we can tie him to an F-18 and see how
he works as a tail hook.

The
heart-breaking scene of Leon Klinghoffer,
being shot in the head, and then pushed,
still in his wheelchair, over the deck of the
Achille Lauro, was unforgettable. His
family's anguish was too much to bear.
I could cheerfully torture this inhuman
beast, Muhammad-Pigsblood-YabbaDabbaDooDoo,
with absolutely no qualms. He is not human,
so his "suffering" would be merely
of some interest. It would evoke no sympathy
or empathy.
I am also beginning to be physically sick at
the sight of these short, swarthy, fat
"men" with mustaches. I imagine
they all smell of sweat, sheep, hatred, and
laziness. They have shiny black eyes with no
intelligence. My dog has more
"humanity" in her eyes than these
monsters. And WHY are they always, always,
always, with other men. They never have any
women around them. What awful things they
are. I am beginning to really not like Arab
men. Yes, I know there are
"good" ones. I have some in my
family. But it's too much work to figure out
who the good ones are.

If convicted,

When a capture or "termination" is

Read the book
"Shadow Warriors" by Tom Clancy and
General Carl Steiner. Steiner tells the whole
story of the Special Operations capture of
the plane at an Italian airbase, after our
military force the plane with Abu Abbas to
land their. The loathsome cowardly Italians
played their host nation rights to let Abbas
escape. Navy SEALs had the plane surrounded,
but had to let the Italians take the
terrorist under their control.
Anytime some accuses us of acting
unilaterally, you should tell them
"damned right, we don't need no stinkin'

In 1996, he WOULD have been the PERFECT

to the U.S. President at that time and his

I wonder though ...... Were there perhaps

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Palestinian guerrilla leader Abu Abbas, who masterminded the hijacking of an Italian cruise ship in 1985, was captured by U.S. special forces and is in U.S. custody in Baghdad, a U.S. official said on Tuesday.
