Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Monday, June 18, 2007

U.S.-led coalition officials say an air strike called in to target suspected al Qaeda militants in Afghanistan has killed seven children. The strike came hours after a deadly suicide blast in Kabul, for which police now say they're holding a suspect.

They were just gonna grow up to be suicide bombers anyway...

there must have been witnesses, or else it would have been 7 Al-Qaeda operatives killed

who cares, nobody gives a shit about afghanis anyways. they're always blowing themselves up , what difference does it make.

Coalition troops had "surveillance on the compound all day and saw no indications there were children inside the building," said Maj. Chris Belcher, a coalition spokesman. He accused the militants of not letting the children leave the compound that was targeted.

This guy must be a republican; everything is somebody else's fault.
Maybe they weren't letting the children outside BECAUSE THEY LIVE IN A FUCKING WAR ZONE.

God bless those poor kids.

The way bad news is accentuated here to try and make Bush look bad is pathetic...

Mullah Dadullah... ever heard of him? Head of taliban operations in Baghdad... killed a few weeks back. No thread to be found here, but 7 kids are tragically BUT accidentally killed and its right there are the front page...

All you libs ever do is focus on the bad... and now you're using kids, its sickening...

"I look upon death to be as necessary to the constitution as sleep. We shall rise refreshed in the morning."

Benjamin Franklin

another lib focusing on the bad...

Rob: I'm not sure what's sickening me more, you're willingness to use the death of children to score a cheap political point, or your blind, shuffling, groveling, whimpering, servitude to the simian one.

Can someone help me figure it out?

Rob, Briwo's right.

That was masterful spin on your part.

The other thing he was right about was "whimpering."

Good thing the president, Rethuglicans and Fundifacists are busy promoting that culture of life... Although how come it only applies to unborn children? It seems once they are out of the womb it's open season.

And No Rob_the_Bad_SQL_Developer, Shrub doesn't need any help to look bad ..

Rob, Briwo's right.

That was masterful spin on your part.


Bullshit... the story I spoke about was a major news story in Afghanistan. Dadullah was a major taliban leader... was his death reported on here? Nope. But a terrible accident happens and here it is... just so you guys can talk about how awful Afghanistan is...

Just because Briwo is a pussy partisan hack doesn't make him right...

Rob-
re: "The way bad news is accentuated here to try and make Bush look bad is pathetic..."

Dude, um, maybe the sight of you rhetorically sucking Bush's lil' johnson day after day is more the problem than the notation of the obvious fact that the Bush has screwed things up in epic proportions.

Rob-
BTW, I suppose you've heard that Iraq is now contributing funds and arms to al Qaeda in Afghanistan and Pakistan (our allies).

LOL... what's really funny is when someone comes along and points out how you liberals focus solely on the bad, even using the death of children so you can really hammer home that Bush sucks, you guys get all in a tizzy and attack that poster...

Nothing to say either Boyd about the death of the Taliban's commander last March? Rcade, Briwo and ted lack the balls (but have plenty to exploit the deaths of kids)... how about you?

That was masterful spin on your part.


And btw... spin from what? This was a terrible accident, a truly awful story... I'm just curious that's all we ever get to read here...

As a good conservative I totally support everything our glorious government does. I TOTALLY support the killing of these innocent civilians. It had to be done and I for one glad we did it. Good riddance future terrorists. Good thing we have the courage to do these things.

Great posts defending these killings Rob. You are a good conservative too.

Why do you liberals hate America?

Will this help ~ Rob?

No?

Rob, do us all a favor, and tell your mother she didn't bring you up right. And for God's sake, don't have children yourself.

I am calling Bushsit on Rob once again!

All we ever read here is bad news?

Granted we do get a lot of stories that seem bad at first glance. Like the Pentagon lies Bush lies Rob the A hole lies, Bush says stupid things again, and Bush lies, etc.

What you don't realize in your rush to try and blame the messengers (libs as you call them) is that the fact that these stories see the light of day and are spread and discussed by us on these blogs IS the good news.

And if you'll look around you'll see there are some feel-good and even some funny stories mixed in occasionally.

Fact is, the news in the world today is statistically bad so the odds on any given day of seeing bad news is generally good.

And we don't get on here an laugh about it like you MoneyWar and the Sniper do. And though we poke fun at each other and especially YOU We take it seriously (most of the time) and respond accordingly.

I personally feel like I am getting something positive by coming here.

I get informed and I pit my wits against halfwits and intelligent folks alike and I see how others think of my thoughts and of these events.

Sometimes I wonder why the fuck you even bother come here if you hate what you see so much except that you are so filled with hate for libs or whatever it is like you can't turn and walk away.

RobTheDouche,

Your paranoia is amusing but where did it say that Bush personally targeted these kids? It doesn't, it's simply a story about the effects of war, but like I said, your paranoia is amusing.

And btw... spin from what? This was a terrible accident, a truly awful story... I'm just curious that's all we ever get to read here...

Once again, another rightist who whines about the stories here and yet keeps coming back. Do you keep going back to restaurants that you think suck in the hopes that someday you'll have a good meal?

Those are some disturbing masochistic tendencies you have there.

Okay, now for the rest of the story. From BBC - The bad guys were in the building.

"It said other children who survived the air strike alleged that the seven children who died were held inside the building all day and beaten and pushed away from the door if they tried to go outside."

Now this is clever of the them. Human shields. If we attack, no matter if we didn't know the children were there, it enflames the locals who have lost children. I'd be mad if it were my children. Hell, I'd want to shoot both parties.

The tactics we are using are all wrong. You avoid these incidents when you use groups of sneaky bastards who wait patiently for the right moment. The right methods for the right type of fight.

To hold children like that to use them as human shields seems to be a common tactic of the islamic terrorists. We have seen them do this in Lebanon and other places. These people deserve to die (not the children).

This strain of this religion is a curse on humanity, we should do everything possible to weed them out and destroy every last one of them. Just as you would a cancer withing your own body.

To use this to make some statement about politics is pathetic. This is not about you, it is about these innocent children who died because the terrorists are evil.

Those kids were "liberated" then? A mistake is ALWAYS a mistake, no matter how many APOLOGISTS IN THE MILITARY DISAGREE. This isn't the first time child casualties have been covered, and definitely won't be the last.

You can't value those childrens lives, you obviously don't have any idea what you are doing in Iraq and Afghanistan.

You are there to secure oil and terrorize the locals. Period.

Shut up and do your fucking job.

look....it is obvious that people of many parts of the middle east have a whole another meaning of loving thier children.
when you read quotes from mothers and fathers who say that thier children will grow up to be suicide bombers
they willingly put children in cars to give safe passage to a car and then blow it up. human shields and making sure they are located with them so that we either wont go after them and when we do, there is a story like this one for all the world to see.
I cant understand why the leftistas, the smartest people in the world, cant see just what a horriffic method of propaganda these kinds of acts are,(placing women and children in harms way) and when they come out with thier sanctamonious outrage, they are falling right into the trap being set by these islamic radicals.
but hey.....anything to blame bush on is the order of the day and how its done, simply doesnt matter.

Mullah Dadullah... ever heard of him? Head of taliban operations in Baghdad... killed a few weeks back. No thread to be found here, but 7 kids are tragically BUT accidentally killed and its right there are the front page...

You mean the bloke who was replaced in his position before news of his death even became, well, news? The guy whose body was on display by the government until it was surrendered in order to free 4 out of 5 hostages (the fifth already having been killed because the government was too slow in surrendering the body)? That Mullah Dadullah?

Can't imagine why that wasn't covered...

REDLIGHTROBOT,
Wow, you sure are a tough hombre. All that mean talk is sure 'nuff scary.

Why don't you go back to scaring bunny rabbits are whatever it is you do? I know why I am here. And you are wrong.

Jeezus Jumpin Keeriest in a Krackerjack Box, didn't we go over this again and again and again? It was either you, Rob, or some other wingnut who was whining and whimpering that it hadn't been reported. And then it turned out that you, or he or she or whoever or whatever the poster was, hadn't bothered to hunt-and-peck on a few keys and do their own posting. Stop bitching when other people don't post the stories you think should be posted. Post 'em yourself. Grow the fuck up.

I cant understand why the leftistas, the smartest people in the world, cant see just what a horriffic method of propaganda these kinds of acts are,(placing women and children in harms way) and when they come out with thier sanctamonious outrage, they are falling right into the trap being set by these islamic radicals.

I can't understand why the people who've got their noses so far up Bush's ass that they've forgotten how to breathe oxygen anymore can't see how bombings of this sort aren't an example of really, really bad p.r. (to phrase it in a way they might understand). Now, I know there are some out there who'd have no problem with the US carpetbombing playgrounds and schools, to get at "them." And targeting is a tricky business. But it doesn't matter a tinker's dam whether this was done in order to get at others, or bad boyz were hiding among noncombatants, or anything. It happened, a bunch of kids are dead, and the US looks bad.

And, besdies being bad and nasty and reprehensible and a goddamn crime, bombing kids who aren't trying to kill you is just plain stoopid. (And stoopid is something any Bushie should understand.)

BLT-
Agreed. It all starts with the premise we're the source of evil and suffering in the world due to our imperialistic ways and the hard headed wrongness of our illegitmate president.

whaaaaa!!!! the big bad guys wont fight fair.

you are a bitch.

Hey Doc, check out Bob's video on his myspace page, along with his Iraq photos.
profile.myspace.com
The video shows a test fire of their artillery.

America tortures, america kills kids

get used to it.

Agreed. It all starts with the premise we're the source of evil and suffering in the world due to our imperialistic ways and the hard headed wrongness of our illegitmate president.

Perhaps with some.

With others, such as myself, it starts with the understanding that this is not the type of war our troops are accustomed to. It is also a war with a culture that large numbers of Americans are totally ignorant of.

Our president (being the Comanner in Chief and all) failed to take the advice of one of the greatest strategists of all time: Sun Tzu.

Know your enemy and know yourself and you need not fear the outcome of 100 battles.

When the president did not know the difference (or even that there WAS a difference) between Shia and Sunni, I think it's pretty safe to say that he did not know the enemy.

Do you really think we intentionally killed these kids.

Thats pathetic if you do...

nope, not at all.

that is no excuse.

they are still dead

Its sad that these kids are dead, However, when the taliban and Al-Quaeda use the kids as shields where is the rage and condemnation towards them from the world community. No, for some reason, the US, which gives the most foreign aid of any country in the world, is always the target whenever something happens.

SCREW THAT... THE ARAB pieces of SHITE that used these kids as shields I hope they burn in hell. And screw the world community that is only condemning the US on this...

stop whining about your opponents tactics. Deal with them.

and Afghanis arent arabs. Please educate yourself.

Ethnic groups of Afghanistan
42% Pashtun

27% Tajik

9% Hazara

9% Uzbek
4% Aimak
3% Turkmen

2% Baloch
4% other (Pashai, Nuristani, Brahui, Hindkowans, Hindustani, etc.)

Tit for tat will not accomplish much in the Middle East.

I'd rather people fear us vs this tit for tat to try to get people to like us... people who'll stand with hands in pockets when we face troubles.

If people on the DR or elsewhere can't discern a difference between our military efforts and the human shield/suicide bombers there's not much room for discussion.

check out Bob's video on his myspace page, along with his Iraq photos.

I would, Oohrah, but it's like getting through the Sunday NYT!?!?! Can you provide me with a written map? I'd like to see that stuff.

Oohrah, I don't mind people fearing us. Or respecting us. Or, what the hell, maybe even liking us. But I do think we have to be very careful on where, when, and under what circumstances we bring military power into the picture. There's always the danger that those we seek to discourage will only be encouraged and emboldened, once they've gotten an idea about the limits of that power. I have a sense you'd probably agree with the general idea, if not necessarily the particulars.

failed to take the advice of one of the greatest strategists of all time: Sun Tzu.


I think he confused Sun Tzu with
SunDrop.

killing children is wrong. by accident or by design.

Continuing on the "text book" notions of this war, it would seem that our enemies have well learned another of Master Sun's lessons:

Pretend inferiority and encourage his arrogance.

"I would, Oohrah, but it's like getting through the Sunday NYT!?!?! Can you provide me with a written map? I'd like to see that stuff." - Doc

As an old fart myself I had to be told what to do as well. So, from one old fart to another, here goes.

First, create a MySpace account. I did (didn't bother to include any personal info)... but basically just established an account with my email & password.

Armed with your own account you can view the photos and videos of other Myspace people, unless their profile is "private" where only invited friends can view it.

Bob's is NOT private, so set up your account, then go to his myspace page that I linked to. If you can't get there, do a PEOPLE search on Myspace (Bob Wooden) and he'll come up.

Once on his page, look at the upper left of his page... where it says "Bob Wooden" inside a gray box and shows a photo of three topless guys pointing rifles. At the bottom OF THE GRAY BOX is "View My: PICS / VIDEOS"

Click on PICS to see his pics... or VIDEO to see the artillery video.

You can't post a comment unless you are one of his invited friends. If you look on the right side of the home page you'll see his friends... including "Randy" (me) who hasn't bothered to figure out how to upload a picture to my Myspace page.

Let me know if this helps!

Doc-
Yes, I agree we ought to exercise discretion when deciding where/when & to what extent to use our military.

Figured you would, Oohrah. I'll get back to you with the results of my internet adventures. But only if I leave some breadcrumbs along the trail. Thanks!

We just had a guy at work yesterday chug a half case of Sun Drop in 30 minutes. He's wired and looks a slight shade of pale yellow. Wow, are we bored.

First, create a MySpace account. I did (didn't bother to include any personal info)... but basically just established an account with my email & password.

Hmmm...ok...ok...yeah...got it...I'm there....say, Oohrah, what's your email and password?

OK, thanks for that email and password, Oohrah. I won't share it with anyone on the DR unless they ask...

Got to the site and watched the video. Yowzah! Hey, what say we get ourselves some desert land in Arizona --- near a big bucks joint like Scottsdale (there's an Indian reservation or two there, so that's a definite possibility) --- and set up one of those whatever it was they were firing? Lay in a couple of hundred cases of beer and let the land developers, lawyers, doctors, insurance salesmen, and whoever else can afford the freight --- what, $3500 a round (just to keep the riffraff out)? --- fire away.

See what a combination of business sense (you) and liberal arts imagination (me) can come up with? I mean, is this a great country or what?

"In the land of the free and the home of the brave, there's more than one way to skin a cat."

Doc-
I'm a liberal arts guy, too.

On Cal's Some Gave All I will update on Bob, who'll be off on a special mission for several weeks without phone/internet access.

I actually added stuff to my own myspace profile this morning. I'm still working on the photos though.

Bob should look up my buddy Phil in Baghdad.
It's Phil's 8th war, he knows a thing or three about keeping his ass in one piece.

Just out of curiosity, does anyone see an ethical/moral difference in these two (hypothetical) scenarios:

a. An Iraqi suicide bomber, targeting a US patrol, blows himself up to destroy their vehicle but also kills several civilians in the process;

b. A US cruise missile destroys a terrorist compound but kills several nearby civilians.

K

Katie-
Pretty similar. The clear intent was to destroy the enemy.

Aside from the issues of them not wearing a uniform, etc., the enemy crosses the line when they use civilians as human shields... or even as bomb transports themselves.

The enemy straps on a bomb and walks into a crowded cafe, intentionally killing 70 innocents. The enemy shoots and holds out in mosques or among innocents.

How many Kids were Killed in New Orleans this weekend, Or Detroit? Why doesn't CBS report that..Aw becuase those are a democratic constituent, Poor Kids who survive on Governement assistance, They can't report that because it may cause people to want to lift someone out of poverty, there fore becoming more republican. As for 7 afghan kids, Why doesn't CBS use some of those profits (they are a big corporation..Don't you libs hate corporations?) and fly all the afghan kids here to join all the hispanics they want to give santuary too..CBS could do a lot besides whine..But Hey that's what libs do...whine

What you don't realize in your rush to try and blame the messengers (libs as you call them) is that the fact that these stories see the light of day and are spread and discussed by us on these blogs IS the good news

I understand that being able to live in a society where we can discuss any event without freedom from prosecution is a good thing... I understand that open discussion about a topic, any topic, is a great freedom that many in this world don't get.

But Donner, what I don't understand is why ALL the stories at the Drudge Retort have to be about soldiers being killed, or children being killed, or this failure or that... Granted Iraq is a shithole and there is a lot more bad to report on then good, but there is good to report on and that is NEVER reported on here...

It leaves the impression that Liberals would rather see soldiers and children dying so that they can attack the President rather than have good news appear and not be able to attack him.

You mean the bloke who was replaced in his position before news of his death even became, well, news? The guy whose body was on display by the government until it was surrendered in order to free 4 out of 5 hostages (the fifth already having been killed because the government was too slow in surrendering the body)? That Mullah Dadullah?

Can't imagine why that wasn't covered...

Posted by RevDarko


If Vice President Cheney died today he would be quickly replaced, does that mean it shouldn't be reported on? Shouldn't even be covered because we'll just replace him...

But then again, that's a bad analogy because Cheney's death would be cheered by Democrats so of course rogers would post it.

Don't be daft, Rob.

My point was that Dadullah's death wound up (very quickly, I might add) becoming a failure on the part of the shiney, new Afghan government.

If you wanted it reported, it would have been reported in full.


Not to mention the fact that you were, as pointed out earlier, fully capable of putting up a thread about it on your own.

I was on suspension at the time the story broke...

Major terrorists leaders die, a success for the Coalition in Afghanistan, and the users have to put up a user blog where it likely won't be seen...

A terrible accident happens that can and is twisted to make the United States and this Administration look bad and Rogers puts it up...

You're telling me that's not accentuating the bad news?

You were off suspension within hours of the story breaking, Rob.

I don't think so Rev... I think I remember checking for it while I was on suspension, kind of knowing it wouldn't be here...

But still, that also lends to a question of importance... if one article says, Posted By Rob_The_A_Hole, and another says Posted By Rcade, which one do you look on with more significance?

You can't possibly contest that there aren't more bad news stories than good here on a daily basis.

"You can't possibly contest that there aren't more bad news stories than good here on a daily basis."

Are you absolutely fucking retarded, Rob?

Can you contest that there aren't more bad news stories in all media on any given day?

Do you think the proportion of good news outta Iraq to bad is about equal or sommat?

Yer perfectly free to try to tout the war cheerleader line around here Robbo but you know yer weak-assed arguments will get slammed each and every time, boyo.

Rightfully.

But go to.

T'would be a giggle fer Spud et al.

Go nutz, buddy!

"Free to be you and me"

Be Well.

Nobody in their right mind would try to claim there is more good news coming out of Iraq than bad... but this story is about Afghanistan, and whether you like it or not there are good stories coming out of Afghanistan... those stories go unreported here.

And yes on the whole the Media reports exponentially more bad news than good... If it bleeds it leads... but even with that mindset the media still reports when a major terrorist figure is killed...

Look I understand why it is the way it is here... you guys hate George W. Bush and want to take every possible opportunity to bash him... the death of a leader of the Taliban doesn't afford liberals the opportunity to do that as easily as threads about fallen soldiers or dead children does...

Its been duely noted... when Bin Laden is captured or killed I'll be sure to post a User Blog since it won't get any play here otherwise... unless of course he's caught during a DNC administration, then I'll look for the huge headline...

Here's an example for you Rob.

I moved into a new house. The neighbor to the left is great, watches my place when I'm away and comes over to watch the game on Sundays.

The neighbor to the right keeps stealing my firewood and has parties on weeknights with loud music and squealing tires. He also shot my dog.

I began by liking both neighbors. I ended up hating the guy on the right after going through six years of his bullshit. The guy to the right is Dubya.

You also live next to the guy but keep making excuses because you believe in 10 years he'll cure cancer.

And here's a test for you, Rob: Go to any rightwing blog and see if they post the same stories they do here at the DR. Probably not, eh?

Hell, just go to Matt Drudge's site and you'll see that he posts nothing but stories about Hillary, cool temperatures (to combat just about every scientist in the world's belief in global warming), and Paris Hilton and Nancy Pelosi.

This is a left-wing blog. What's so hard to understand? If anything, Rogers posts threads on far more "fairminded" stories than any rightie blog I've ever been to. Quit yer bitching.

This is a left-wing blog. What's so hard to understand?

So you admit left wing blogs like this one exploit the deaths of soldiers, children and other civilians so that they can bash the President...

Thank you... that's all I wanted.

You also live next to the guy but keep making excuses because you believe in 10 years he'll cure cancer.

Maybe you're just a nutjob who's blamed every shitty situation in your life on him when in fact you're to blame for a lot of it... meanwhile with him as my neighbor he's never stolen from me, shot my dog and always invited me to his parties... You don't like him because you and your favorite neighbor are a bunch of pessimistic "Debbie Downers" who no one likes to have at party's because when everyone is filling their cups at the keg you're busy lecturing everyone about how the cups aren't biodegradable and how our mutual neighbor wastes too much water with his sprinklers, so you're no longer invited to the ass kicking parties.

Next time keep your dog on a leesh, keep your wood away from his property line and lighten up a little and you can come to the parties and instead of bitching the last few years you could have been having a good time, and getting in on his business he runs from his home and ending up financially well off...

Actually, I think I prefer a nice apple to a rotten head of lettuce

So you hate vegetarians?
Thank you...that's all I wanted
A-Hole

PS Also, since you bastards won't post the stories I want to see posted and can't be bothered posting myself, I'm going to hold my breath until my face turns the color of that rotten head of lettuce. And then I'm going to fart in your general direction. Pffffft!

and whether you like it or not there are good stories coming out of Afghanistan... those stories go unreported here.

What, exactly, is preventing you from assuming some personal responsibility and reporting all that "good news"?

Oh, I think it runs something along the line of: I'm waiting to see if someone else will do it.

What a welfare queen you are, Rob.

Get off your ass -- in fact, know what's really great? you don't even have to get off your ass to do it -- locate all this great stuff and post it. Yourself. Yes. You can do it. I know you can. C'mon, little guy, give it a whirl.

Or, for chrissakes, give it a rest.

If I post something about a fat lady in a carnival -- she sends her best, by the way -- it's because I want to. If I post a story about Iraq or wherever, it's because I want to. Often to open up discussion.

But I don't piss and wail and whine and moan because people don't post the stories I think should be posted.

The stories I think should be posted, if nobody else's posted the story, know what I do? C'mon, Rob, take a chance! I post the fucking story myself.

Don't be such a pathetic victim of your own laziness, ineptitue, and malaise.

What, exactly, is preventing you from assuming some personal responsibility and reporting all that "good news"?

He's either too lazy or too stupid to find and submit that good news.

I was on suspension for the story I was talking about...

Plus I would prefer Rogers post it since I tend to give his threads more notice here... just more credible

I post the fucking story myself.


And its at that point I see, "Posted By Doc_Sarvis" and I say to myself, "I'm not reading this douchebag's story, he's a fucking idiot," and I move along to a more credible posters thread.

Rob, I don't care if you read what I post or not. You can think whatever you want of me, but for you to assume a story I post is worthless because of that opinion just shows what a reactive (and easily manipulated) bozo you are.

In any event, you'll never hear me whining and whimpering and simpering and daubing my eyes -- as you do -- because someone else didn't post a story I think should've been posted.

Oh, poor Rob. He saw a story he thought was important and nobody posted it. Bad DR posters! Bad DR posters!

What a goldbricker.




but for you to assume a story I post is worthless because of that opinion just shows what a reactive (and easily manipulated) bozo you are.

You're a joke, anything you consider important enough to post is going to be worthless... whats the point in going anywhere near it...

Hey rob...post a story. As a guy thats supposed to work online, i think you're probably capable of clicking "write a blog entry" and doing a copy/paste for yourself.

Uh...otherwise STFU.

I_n_cognito, this is old ground with Rob. He whines about this stuff, apparently in (mistaken) belief that it says more about others than it does about him. I couldn't believe it when I saw him dragging that one-legged Afghan warlord around again, like the proverbial dead horse.

Uh...otherwise STFU.

Nah... on both of your wishes...

The story is old... so is the story of liberals cheering for soldiers and children dying.

You're a joke, anything you consider important enough to post is going to be worthless... whats the point in going anywhere near it...

See, Rob, that's one of the differences between you and me. I don't give a rat's ass whether you read what I post or not. But you'll never hear me pissing and moaning because you didn't post a story I thought was important, but just couldn't quite bring myself to post, and then blame you for not posting it.

That's why you're a victim and I'm not.

Are you a kept man, or something?

Rob- TOo lazy to make your article, but just energitic enough to bitch about what's missing ?

Yeah, you're as useless as I thought.

'energetic'. Sheesh.

but just couldn't quite bring myself to post, and then blame you for not posting it.


I'm not blaming you, I'm blaming Rogers for celebrating troop deaths and not posting good news...

Also, and I hate to keep reminding you of this cuz its like picking on a kid with Downs Syndrome, I was on suspension when he was killed... therefore unable to post the story.

You can post it now...or *gasp* stop getting suspended for making comments about posters eye injuries.

Asshole.

You can post it now

You think I should post about a commander killed back in march, today?

That's not why I got suspended... it was for hoping bad things happen to Spud for his willie-nillie use of the "Nazi" insult...

Well, rob...if you're going to hijack the thread and PMS about the story NOW, it's obviously still important to you.

So post the story or stop whining, goldbricker.

Aw did I hijack this thread and ruin your liberal fun of being happy that kids died so you could bash bush... sorry about that...

Next time there's a thread about kids or soldiers dying I'll let you enjoy it... well no, probably not.

Oh, no!! Not the goldbricker insult!

"You think I should post about a commander killed back in march, today?"

I don't care. As I pointed out to you sometime ago, you had an opportunity to post it the day after it first broke. It was still a page-one story in the NYT and you hadn't exceeded your posting limit. Why didn't you post it then?

Don't be such a crybaby.

Rob- if you ever had a purpose it's long gone. You're whiny shell of a boy that's more annoying than offensive. "crybaby" indeed.

Wasn't talking to you Doc... Someone else said I should post it now...

Doc, you're not getting it... look who posted this story? That's my point...

Rob- if you ever had a purpose it's long gone.

You forgot to call me "Goldbricker"

Next time there's a thread about kids or soldiers dying I'll let you enjoy it...

The only one enjoying themselves seems to be you, rob. Funny how every thread turns into something about you, the petty whiny narcissist.

The only one enjoying themselves seems to be you, rob.

Mission Accomplished...

If you're still here and you're not enjoying yourself, then that increased my happiness by 68%

Doc, you're not getting it... look who posted this story? That's my point...

If you posted your "good tidings" more often, Rob, you'd know some things about posting on the DR that appear to have eluded even your keen powers of observation.

(1) You post a story and it appears as someone else's post because -- guess what? -- they posted it, too.

(2) You post a story and it appears as an RCade post. Why? Who cares? It's his site.

(3) You post a story and it goes nowhere. So what?

(4) You post a story and the title gets changed. Sometimes RCade flattens it out, sometimes he spices it up. Again, who cares?

Now you're blaming the poster of a story that wasn't about "good news" in Afghanistan for not posting a story about "good news" in Afghanistan that you couldn't be bothered to post?

You're beyond ridiculous.

I_N_Cognito - a suggestion: ignore the bastard. I've helped contribute to the Masturbating Monkey Syndrome enough for one day, enough for a long time. Self-loathers-lovers like Rob do not like to be ignored. He's in Niceville territory now, where he belongs.

I"m going to go out and listen to the waves.

Lots of friends and family huh big guy?

WOB the sobhole still pooping his diaper?

Be a man and post a story, you coward. Are you really THAT afraid of picking a bad article or getting zero hits? Or do you justy enjoy the autonomy of adding nothing to the site but cowardly derusion of other peoples work while you jerk off?

Don't go to be angry I_N_Cog...

This isnt the first time you've bitched about this type of thing.

Post your own articles and stop getting booted.

Simple.

Even more simple is posting a lot (on or off topic) to annoy you and watch you get pissed and yell at me for hours... and its even more amusing.

Now G'night

The waves, huh Doc? Sound real good. 21 days left until I leave this place and then its Surf City.

truth says something about how its always sad about children dieing and he's right, but then go to the thread about the bear killing the young boy and most of what you read are sick jokes.....go figure.....

and armyof1 tell us that the world only talks about us killing children and not about the human shields......and he should start right here at home because our own media is doing the same thing....blame us first, last, and always..........and thats horseshit that should be condemned from all sides.
its not our fault.

Is that Nothern Cal or Southern Cal? Seems there are two cities claiming to be Surf City.

7 Children Killed by US Bombers


The U.S.-led coalition apologized Monday for the killing of the children but blamed militants for hiding among civilians. "We are truly sorry for the innocent lives lost in this attack," U.S. Army Maj. Chris Belcher, a coalition spokesman, said in a statement. "We had surveillance on the compound all day and saw no indications there were children inside the building." "We know that the militants often hide among women and children but we did not give a shit". "We would have dropped the bombs even if there were 50 women and children in the shool to get the one Hi-Profile Al Qadea Leader."
According to several officials, and contrary to previous statements, the U.S. military knew there were children at the compound but considered the target of such high value it was worth the risk of potential collateral damage.

Those same officials tell NBC News the target of Sunday's attack was Abu Laith al Libi, the al-Qaida commander in Afghanistan and a top lieutenant of Osama bin Laden. The sources report that although six sets of remains besides those of the seven children were recovered, it's not clear whether Abu Laith is among those killed.

US bombed a "compound" in Paktika province, Afghanistan, in which, they say, "nefarious activity" ( Wicked in the extreme; iniquitous; EVIL activity, VICIOUS activity ) was occurring. The bombs killed 7 or more children, so if there wasn't nefarious activity ( Wicked in the extreme; iniquitous; EVIL, VICIOUS ) occurring before, that pretty much counts. The Independent comments, "The statement gave no indication what such nefarious activity (Wicked in the extreme; iniquitous; EVIL activity, VICIOUS activity ) might be". One might add an additional note of skepticism about intel that is evidently capable of detecting nefarious activity ( Wicked in the extreme; iniquitous; EVIL activity, VICIOUS activity ) but not children. The children were killed in a school. The US military says it didn't expect there to be any children in a school (they used the word madrassa). C'mon, they said, it was Sunday, shouldn't those kids have been in church? The story the US is putting out is that the fighters kept the children with them by force. If true, then "wouldn't the shield explaination only work if the shields were, you know, visible?"

Shouldn't the clearance/approval to strike a school/madrassa require confirmation women and children are "not" present?

How high up the Chain of Command did the request for this Air Strike go until it was approved?
Did it go to the White House?

What are the current rules of engagement? We know 7 children is an exceptable tradeoff for one Hi-Profile Al Qaeda. What about 50 women and children?
What about 100 women and children? Has Congress reviewed the rules of engagement?

This just one more slaughter of innocent Women and Children in Iraq and Afghanistan by US forces.

It's time to re-write the rules of engagement for Airstrikes with 500 and 2000 pound bombs on potential innocent civilian targets.
