Culture of life, my ass. Also note how thrilled and grateful the Iraqi people are that we are there occupying their country.

U.S. military probes killing of pregnant woman

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- The U.S. military is investigating reports that its soldiers shot and killed two women, one of them pregnant, in Samarra, according to the U.S. military and an official with the Joint Coordination Center in Salaheddin Province.

A JCC official said 35-year-old Nahiba Husayif Jassim and Faliha Mohammed Hassan, 55, were heading for the hospital Tuesday for the delivery of Nahiba's baby.

...

The Associated Press identified the driver as Jassim's brother, Khalid Nisaif Jassim, who is quoted as saying he drove "at full speed because I did not see any sign or warning from the Americans."

"It was not until they shot the two bullets that killed my sister and cousin that I stopped," AP quoted him as saying. "God take revenge on the Americans and those who brought them here. They have no regard for our lives."

He said that the baby also died, according to AP.

1. Where will the pro-lifers be now?

They won't have a word to say, they're attention is too narrow

[Avalux]

2. They're not really women, they're Iraqi.

That's the mentality; because they're "Arabs" and live over there, they're subhuman and don't deserve to be treated like good Christian white women.

There was no outrage from the Fundies when we bombed Iraq and killed thousands of innocents in order to "liberate them". I don't expect any outrage now either.

4. another example of how the liberal media only tells the bad news

they don't mention the tens of thousands of pregnant women who weren't killed today.

[MindPilot]

3. You got it wrong; it's not pro life

it is pro white christian life.

5. But, but, but

yhese are brown babies - they do not count:sarcasm: :sarcasm:

6. I'm sure that we are continuing to win the hearts and minds of Iraqis.

We're on the road to 'victory' says our glorious leader. "God take revenge on the Americans and those who brought them here." say the Iraqis.
