  • 3 Hostages Rescued

    Posted by Andy on July 26th, 2006

    CentCom has more good news.

    The three were taken hostage by al-Qaeda insurgents west of Zaidon, a rural area south of Fallujah.

    [...]

    The three were held captive by al-Qaeda insurgents in a spiderhole complex for 27 days. The hostages were beaten with electrical cords, bitten and threatened with their lives at gunpoint by their captors.

    No lefties we didn’t impeach Bush and open up Guitmo so the bad guys can go free. 3 good guys were rescued from the bads guys in Iraq with our help.

    Also recovered nearby was a significant weapons cache, including a fully-assembled suicide vehicle-borne improvised explosive device. Marines also recovered IEDs and IED-making material, mortar tubes and round, artillery rounds, machine guns, bulk explosives, anti-tank mines, rocket-propelled grenades and launchers, AK-47 assault rifles, small-arms ammunition and video cameras.

    By all means we should get our troops over that horizon so they won’t be so tempted to rescue the innocent and capture the tools that evil uses to terrorize the world.

      I’m confused… so the non-prisoners of war being held at a military base were holding hostages? Well then, yeah, it IS a good thing we didn’t let them go.

      Oh wait, no, you’re saying that because these people were being held without rights, we were able to rescue the three hostages. I see. Well yeah, then its still good that we didn’t let them go.

      Wait… where in the article does it mention gitmo at all? Or any reason why we shouldn’t impeach bush for lying?
