Is There ANY Level of Mercy We Should Show to THESE Barbarians?

Iraq,
Checkpoint.
Car pulls up for inspection.
Two Adults.
Soldiers look in, see two little kids in the back seat of the car.
Let car pass. Looks OK.

Car drives up in front of a School.

Adults get up out of the car, run from it.

The car blows up Killing the Little Kids in the back seat.

Five killed and seven injured.


Suicide bombing using innocents as passage.


Does it get any lower or more degraded than this?

Abugraib would be too good for them.

Do they deserve any mercy if we catch them?

Any?

Seems like Jesus mentioned something about a Millstone around someones neck and deep water. Seems a little nice for these kind of villains.

Just asking.

Horrible is it not?

Of course it is not much different from My Lai massacre during Vietnam or the recent massacre of civilians in Iraq by American soldiers.

It is war. It is violent. It is horrible. And ALL who participate in it have blood on their hands.

The question we should ask ourselves, would this have happened if we had NOT invaded the country? No, we did not do the act but have we helped to facilitate it by our invasion?

Our history is filled with similar actions so we must be careful about throwing rocks. All the way back to the Pilgrims who burned 300 Indian men, women and children alive.

Violence beget violence. There has never been a war fought that brings peace. A cessation of hostilities? Yes. Peace? Never.
