B.Z. Iraqis. I’ll just bet that the hajis that did this got an equal opportunity can of whoop-ass opened up on them when they got to jail. Payback is a motherfucker.

It pays to have balls in this life, regardless of gender. Glad to see them so prominently displayed in the events recounted in this story.

Absolutely terrific outcome. I thought for sure they would appear on some fucked up video. Bless them and all those fighting for freedom over there.

I don’t think the term “stay the course” was used by coincidence. It looks to me that we are starting to see Iraqi Washingtons and Jeffersons …. I hope so!!!

These guys are learning the hard way that freedom isn’t free. They’re also able to learn first hand from American troops, what bravery and dedication, duty and honor are all about. American troops lead by example…and the Iraqis seem to be feeding off of that fine example.

We’ve managed to turn many Iraqis into real leaders instead of victims or haj. Nebakanezer would be pround. God bless them all.

“We already forgot the pain and the wounds from our ordeal,” said Haroon al-Mohammedawi, the bearded leader of the group from Khalis, a region in Diyala province where the terror organization has a heavy presence. “We pledge to you, the people and leadership of Iraq, that we will stay the course.”

Stay the course. It really is good to see how far the people of Iraq have come and how strong they are in the face of the barbarians. They know the cost of folding to terror. I have a great deal of respect for all the people in Iraq standing and fighting against the terrorists.

I am so relieved that the sheiks were rescued.

It’d be just as cool if the whole thing was staged, as a magnificent PR move.

DEVASTATING and VIVID evidence of

–the depravity of our enemy;
–the WORTHINESS of our ally;
–the hard-earned SUCCESS of our mission…

Do ya think there is any “good tv news value” in this dramatic hostage-rescue story?

Result:

“KEEP THIS GODDAM STORY OFF THE NETWORKS!”

The Iraqi Army is learning from the best!

I’m glad the sheiks were rescued and that they’re planning to stay the course. I’m also glad the Iraqi soldiers were able to carry out their mission with little help from the troops. This is just another sign that the troops are winning in Iraq- and it’s really amazing when you think about it because, at first, winning over the hearts and minds of Iraqis seemed IMPOSSIBLE. Well they’ve done more than that, in fact, they’ve won over the hearts and minds of FORMER INSURGENTS too!

No other military force in the world can do that!!
