Iraqi militants threaten to behead US Marine...

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - Arab television broadcast videotape Sunday of two men of Pakistani origin taken hostage by militants: a driver for an American company and a blindfolded man in military fatigues described as U.S. Marine lured from his base. Insurgents threatened to behead them both.

story here.....

The U.S. military could not immediately confirm that a Marine had been abducted, but the video shown on the Al-Jazeera network showed a card identifying the man by a Pakistani name and as an "active duty" Marine. The man had a trimmed mustache and his eyes were covered with a white blindfold.

That's it! GDIT why don't we just turn the entire region into a sheet of glass! F-em seriously they are running around like a bunch of fricking animals blowing stuff up and killing like its a game! I want them dead! I want them all dead.... I guess Thats not fair because maybe in some far off corner there is a mother with babies who loves what we have done but at this point I'm losing my focus!

Oh yeah! That is the way to make them leave you alone - behead a Marine. Isn't that kind of like walking up to the hornets nest, calling their queen a ho biatch, kicking their hive, and mooning them as they fly out?

If they behead a US Marine, they better say their prayers.

Boo hoo, a combatant is captured and we worry that he may die?

I pray that you will never - ever be in the position of having someone you love, in the hands of these lunatics.

He is a Marine, his job is to go into combat and maybe die. If his family isn't ready for that, there is something wrong. What did he think, join the Marines & get a desk job? Join the Marines for a free education? Not saying it is good that he got captured, but it isn't like he is a preacher, he is a Marine - a killing machine!
