Al Jazeera airs video showing Fallujah attack

DUBAI, Dec 3 (Reuters) - Al Jazeera broadcast a video on Saturday by a group called the Islamic Army in Iraq which the Arabic television channel said showed an explosion against a U.S. patrol near Fallujah.

It was not immediately clear whether the group had claimed the attack which killed 10 U.S. Marines near Fallujah on Thursday.

7. thank you. that was very troubling.

bring the troops home now! Listen to Murth, our troops are the targets :-(

8. Thank you for the link. I'm really getting sick of that "God is great"...

...being chanted in the background. I heard it in the Juba video(s). Then again, if Arabs had invaded the United States I guess I'd be shouting "Thank God!" if we blew up one of their patrols.

BTW, no "terrorism" here. Plain old war. And we're losing- which isn't bad in itself, if you're fighting for what's right, which we aren't.

9. I do too. I don't like the allah akbah either.

But this video of US soldiers being baptised before the Fallujah battle leaves me uncomfortable and makes me wonder if this is a crusade.

11. Maybe an example of...

'whatever gets you through the night'. I would imagine that the psychological affects of being subjected to this war, would necessitate some strong attachments to a group belief system.

12. Just reminded me of the hymn

I used to sing as a child in church...

Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war.
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before!
Christ, the royal Master,
Leads against the foe;
Forward into battle,
See His banner go!

Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war.
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before!

At the sign of triumph
Satan's host dost flee;
On, then, Christian soldiers,
On to victory!
Hell's foundations quiver
At the shout of praise;
Brothers, lift your voices,
Loud your anthems raise!

Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war.
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before!

Like a mighty army
Moves the church of God;
Brothers, we are treading
Where the saints have trod;
We are not divided;
All one body we,
One in hope and doctrine,
One in charity.

Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war.
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before!

Onward, then ye people,
Join our happy throng,
Blend with ours your voices
In the triumph song;
Glory, laud, and honor,
Unto Christ the King:
This thro' countless ages
Men and angels sing.

Onward, Christian soldiers,
Marching as to war.
With the cross of Jesus
Going on before!

3. Yeah well We were attacked on Sept 11th and don't you forget it

...:sarcasm: :puke:

[MADem]

10. Yeah, and those clowns lived sorta near Eye Rack, only two countries

over, in fact...so it's all the same, ain't it???

They just hate our freedoms, I reckon!! We're free to have the Feebs tap our phones, our computers, free to get frisked down to our whiskers at the airports, free to be investigated up the ass without our knowledge, free to have our votes counted by Diebold!!!

Yep, freedom is on the march.....and it seems to be marching in the same direction as decent American jobs....

13. Video Grab from Yahoo

I saw the video in CNNI today. Awful shit... Bring them Home!







A frame grab taken from a video claimed to be shot by an Iraqi militant group and aired on Al Jazeera television, shows what is claimed to be an explosion against a U.S. patrol near Fallujah, Iraq December 1, 2005. The brief video, which was posted December 3, 2005, shows a Humvee, flanked by what look like U.S. troops, travelling slowly down a street when an explosion engulfed the vehicle sending clouds of dust into the air and bystanders fleeing.

14. Militant group says kills 10 U.S. Marines - Web

http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/L03732499.htm
DUBAI, Dec 3 (Reuters) - An Iraqi militant group posted a video on Saturday which showed what it said was an explosion against a U.S. patrol near Fallujah that killed 10 U.S. Marines.

The U.S. military had said 10 U.S. Marines were killed near Fallujah on Thursday.

The group, the Islamic Army in Iraq, is among several insurgent organisations battling U.S. troops and Iraqi forces.

An accompanying statement by the group said it had also killed and injured other U.S. troops in a battle on Saturday in Duluyia, a town north Baghdad.

The group also claimed the killing of three U.S. soldiers in Nassiriyah.

yeah monkey boy, let's stay the course and kill some more people.

15. Media whores: Tell us the website

Once again, we get this shadowy "video posted on the Internet," and the media won't tell us (and, presumably, won't ask) for the URL of the video.

Get the URL, look up the domain registration, and see where that leads. We might be surprised.
