Absolutely spot on.
All we have seen is a celebration of the "shock and awe" tactics that led to those 9000 civilians being killed by the US military, not condemnation. The US occupation army has killed more than three times the amount of civlians that were killed by the terrorists on 9/11, and they must be punished for it, and the brave Iraqi resistance are making sure of that.
FALLUJAH, Iraq, Nov. 2 — Eighteen Americans, soldiers and civilians, died in Iraq on Sunday, in the second deadliest day for U.S. forces since the Iraq war began. Insurgents shot down a U.S. Chinook helicopter in central Iraq as it carried troops headed for vacation, killing 15 soldiers and wounding 21. Another U.S. soldier and two American civilian contractors also died in attacks in Baghdad and Fallujah.
UTD, how many American couch patatoes were there watching TV in their trailers celebrating the “Shock and Awe” tactics of their terrorist goverment over beers, while thousands of civilians died? Don’t even go there.
Americans are the illegal occupiers, and the Iraqi’s have every right to protect their soil. There are plenty of reasons why I don’t shed a tear when an American soldier dies. I encourage it. Way to go Iraqi’s, keep it up :k:

oh no, there are only three categories of non-coalition people dying in Iraq:
Saddam loyalists
BL company
Syrian infiltration
and by definition they are all terrorists, as for coalition they are THE LIBERATORS, you are about to see Iraqi women in beauty contests.

Where did I say all Americans were couch patatoes living in trailer parks? Don't be so quick to judge, just read thoroughly next time.
This is not about military action, this is about American resolve. Casualties in World War II amounted to 27,000 per DAY World Wide. The Allies lost over 70,000 in just North Africa, fighting the Germans. Losing 500 soldiers in two wars in two years is a military pimple. So boys let's wipe them off and put the away, as your excitement at US losses needs a wee bit of perspective.

And what about the lack of condemnation of the thousands of killed Iraqi soldiers during the invasion, many of whom may have been conscripts. How many times did i see/hear/read people in Canada cheer as more Iraqi soldiers were killed. It's like they don't even exist anymore, no one mentions them - sympathizing with their families, their widows, their children, is akin to sympathizing with the devil. What happened to all those Iraqi soldiers who were killed during the invasion, thousands of them? We never hear about them. Anyone's loss is tragic. It seems to me (and i am doing this as well as i type) we only share tears when we share ethnic/religious affiliation. Perhaps that is why i find it so insurmountable to feel for what is occurring now.

I hope u will be able to confidently quote the same statistics in front of the parents of 500 soldiers who lost their lives.

I guess you don't get the Fox news channel or you don't listen to radio shows like the Glenn Beck show or the Savage nation ,etc. The delight with which shock and awe was being described by these people and never the mention about loss of life that these multi thousand pound bombs were causing, well you get my drift.

And this is surely the most stupid comment you ever made on Gupshup!
The USA (for all the bravado of you and your cronies) will be out of Iraq (with or without any settlement/stability) within the next year.
No, I'd say the former regime is the one supplying the weapons as well as some terrorists infiltrating Iraq. Do you believe that the good people of Iraq have had these weapons in storage for the last few decades and were just waiting to use them after Saddam was overthrown rather than against him?

Well Chote the largest foreign infiltrator of them all is the US military, and the one that has by far the most amount of weaponary. Now having killed over 9000 Iraqi civilians, including little children and babies the US military far exceeds the deeds of those terrorists on 9/11.
Btw, did you hear the news about HUGE explosions just reported in Central Baghdad, very close to the US occupation HQ? Seems like that night after night the attacks in this area are increasing, obviously causing a great deal of sleep deprivation for the terrified US soldiers? Then again is sleep deprivation not torture?
