Words from the front-lines (Iraq)

by Traveling Soldier Tuesday, Nov. 11, 2003 at 11:53 PM
contact@traveling-soldier.org

Soldiers slam the occupation.

"In the beginning I was into this; we all were. [But] we haven't found anything, no weapons of mass destruction, no Saddam, no nothing. And the people there hate us. If we were rolling through a town and they were cheering, hell yeah, it would make us feel better. But when they're not cooperating and throwing rocks and giving us evil looks, we don't want to be there. We're conquerors to them. It wasn't supposed to be like that. ... I hate it over there, I hate it." - Specialist Castillo, while on leave from Iraq.

"I don't give a damn about Rumsfeld. All I give a damn about is going home. The only thing his visit meant for us was we had to clean up a lot of mess to make the place look pretty. And he didn't even look at it anyway." - Specialist Rue Gretton, on Rumsfeld’s visit to Tikrit.

"If I got to talk to Rumsfeld I'd tell him to give us a return date. We've been here six months and the rumor is we'll be here until at least March. This is totally, totally uncalled for." - Sgt. Green, Tikrit, Iraq

Good Website nonanarcist

by bj Wednesday, Nov. 12, 2003 at 11:10 AM

Good web site non-anarcist. i have a brother and a cousin over there and we cannot believe what the likes of CNN andother networks are saying, much less these left fringe news sites. The average poster to this site is so off the mark on nearly everthing regarding the war in Iraq it is funny. I read there atrticals to piss me off and strengthen my resolve to support my brother in his primary goal of killing every last one of the bastards who were laughing Sept 11, not many of them laughing anymore.

Are you threatening the POTUS?

Agent C

by Agent B Thursday, Nov. 13, 2003 at 2:06 AM

Not sure who you think you are, but you're not qualified to be one of us. Agent A and I outed dingo. You haven't done anything.

The POTUS wasn't laughing on 9/11. That thought is only believed by wingnut conspiracy theorists of whom no one of any significance is paying them any attention except to belittle and otherwise ridicule them. Should you wish to have that bestowed upon you, stick around.

I was laughing in 9/11

by Stephen Wade Thursday, Nov. 13, 2003 at 2:22 AM

Me and my friends were giving high fives all night!!!

I laughed my ass off.

Do you think Amurica can go around sticking it's nose into every country in the world, appointing murdering dictators just because they're pro-Amurican, ripping of the poorer nations with crooked trade deals.

Do you think your going to get away with that forever??

Death to the stinking lousy government. You stole that country from the real Americans

America is one big lousy lie.

Shut up youf

Shut up you filthy knacker.

Me and my friends were giving high fives all night!!!

Celebrating the deaths of 3000 innocent people. The truth from those who claim to be more "caring" and "compassionate" than the rest of us.

Body Count on Our Side

by BJ Thursday, Nov. 13, 2003 at 7:12 AM

At least the body count in Iraq is on our side. More people have been murdered in Washington DC than soldiers killed in Iraq since the war began. Also we are nearing my goal of 10 dead Muslims for every American lost on Sept 11.

Wow.

You're an idiot.

That's pretty much all there is to say about you.

No, I didn't...

by nonanarchist1700 Thursday, Nov. 13, 2003 at 10:10 PM

...visit his website.

Call me psychic, but I knew it would be devoid of any smidgen of reality.

Wow, Fido.

You are Republican.

That pretty much says all there is to say about you.

by KPC Friday, Nov. 14, 2003 at 6:38 PM

Of course, who am I to say anything about others. I'm a liberal. It's lucky for me that breathing is a reflex action.

by KPC Friday, Nov. 14, 2003 at 10:48 PM

Just when I though what you pass off for insults couldn't get any more lame...

...you prove me wrong!

Way to go Republican!

By the by...what new lies do you have for us today?
