[rodeodance]

enviroment-----never knowing who will be killed next?!!

[xchrom]

2. i wonder if betrayus will include this in his report?

[Auntie Bush]

7. Actually Mike Yon already reported on this and no one wanted to talk about it

http://www.michaelyon-online.com/wp/bless-the-beasts-and-children.htm

this was reported last month.........

10. Uhhh... have you read ANY of the comments that follow his

articles???

Rants about the only truth to be found about Iraq are from Yon and FOX? Rants from end-timers about how Iraq is what we get for being full of sin and turning away from god?

Also, I find it strange that anyone killed (according to Mr. Yon) in a village before we get there was killed by "Al Qaeda".
In fact, to read his report, you'd come away thinking that the only people we (as Americans in the MNF) fight are "al Qaeda".

He never mentions that the real Al Qaeda was not in Iraq before we invaded, nor does he say that even now, real Al Qaeda fighters in Iraq number far less than the bushco media would have everyone believe.

13. I know Mike Yon personally

I trust him more than any other reporter in Iraq........as for comments look at the comments here from the crazies, comments do not impugn a site or person......

9. Please do not insult one of the finest military officers I have ever served

it is offensive......

5. "There was no indication of how the 60 people had been killed"

can we rule out natural causes?

8. Try looking for indications of lead poisoning . Look in the back of their heads

60 decomposing bodies indicate they were not fresh kills imo.

[ohio2007]

6. Baquba is an al Queda stronghold they say

"The surge" of deaths move into AQ strongholds so were they Sunni collaborators ?

[Supersedeas]

11. nothing to see here -- feed them cozy vacation news

[superconnected]

12. Just another day in Bush occupied Iraq.

Torture, murder, gore, It's all part of "winning" the war on terror - apparently by instilling terror with terrorific murders.
