Not From Mainstream Media

By: Reilly On: Nov/19/04 - 50 Comments

This morning K wrote a comment in another post about having some great pictures of our troops and the people of Iraq that are not seen in the liberal media and definitely not something the insurgents would ever want the world to see. These are from K’s dad. Thanks to both of them for sharing them with all of us.

    Sure! I thought it was really nice to see. Just a disclaimer – my dad is not over there – he just received the pictures and passed them on to me.

    I went to Simon and the lefties page, to see what radical ideas were flying around today and noticed the one with the kid in the car was there, too.

    These are nice pictures. At least some of them are from very early on in the liberation/occupation. I have also seen plenty of pictures that aren’t so nice, but I doubt that you would ever post those here.

    I think they were glad to get rid of “So damn insane,” but that honeymoon is over and are dealing with a guest that won’t leave.

    -that reminds me of a Benjamin Franklin quote.

    Some of the Iraqi’s who hate us may have liked us at one time. But once their relatives are accidently killed from “collateral damage” they become part of the insurgency.

    More insurgents means more US combat. The more combat, the more collateral damage. The more collateral damage, the more insurgents, etc.

    How are we gonna win that?

    What is the exit strategy? It is so unfortunate that President Bush didn’t plan for the aftermath before he took down Saddams’s government.

    From RightVoices.com: Rightvoices has a bunch like these. As they point out, justifiably so, you won’t see these on mainstream media, they’re only concerned with the body count.

    Strange thing is, even though they love us, they keep exploding car bombs and shooting our guys . . . it is all so inexplicable.

  15. mike kilo
    November 19, 2004 - 02:50 PM on November 19th, 2004

    that’s because “they” (the iraqi people) are NOT exploding car bombs….FOREIGN TERRORIST MUSLIM ANIMALS are.

    #4 – Zelda the images of war and lives lost is available on the news 24 hours a day 7 days a week – - I thought it good to show the other side that being that it isn’t all Iraqi’s who hate the US and our military or our being present in their country – - – - I also thought it good to show that not all military members are into abusing POW’s as the liberal media would like us all to believe. So as for posting those types of images here – - No, I probably won’t any time soon. Why do that when as I stated and you clearly know they are available everywhere else.

    nice to see all those naysayers “supporting the troops” though, isn’t it reilly?

    Its great to see these type of pictures that the liberal left-wing news media will never show you i mean this is the good stuff that the New York Pravda(Times)will never show and the truth that dan blather and tom brokenjaw will never tell us good job:grin:

    November 19, 2004 - 04:56 PM on November 19th, 2004

    Ok, let us get to the point. The vast majority of liberals/socialist/lovers of “freedom fighter” do NOT support the troops. Look at that pillow biting cum guzzlin fag simons website. After the elections are over, and there is nothing to loose, the libs show there true colors.

    TACINURAZ,

    I wish it were so, but it is hardly fair to hold me out as an example of the Left.

    November 19, 2004 - 05:28 PM on November 19th, 2004

    Simon, WTF are you! out side of someone the I would like to meet in person. Alabama azz woopin.

    November 19, 2004 - 05:32 PM on November 19th, 2004

    aren’t you fighting for the principle of free speech, thus defending Simon’s right to say exactly what you hate the most?

    and then you imply bodily harm. isn’t that contradictory?

  23. TACINURAZ
    November 19, 2004 - 05:36 PM on November 19th, 2004

    Shiloh, what is wrong with you. This man wishes our soldiers to die!! And you take up for him. He also conveys his wishes to kill Red Staters in blood revolution! Why aren’t you denounceing this scumbag.

  24. shiloh
    November 19, 2004 - 06:00 PM on November 19th, 2004

    i do denounnce what he says but not his right to say it.

    that distinction makes America what it is, in my opinion.

  25. TACINURAZ
    November 19, 2004 - 06:02 PM on November 19th, 2004

    Well, if your opinion incites or allows people like him to put the crap he puts out……………………your WRONG!

    November 19, 2004 - 06:15 PM on November 19th, 2004

    24 – it’s not me, i don’t think. i’m going on what the Supreme Court has established as precedent regarding the first ammendment to the Constitution. is it that pesky Bill of Rights you’re having trouble with?

  27. Simon and the Lefties
    November 19, 2004 - 06:16 PM on November 19th, 2004

    TAC,

    I believe in authoritarianism as much as you, but I fear that your side (backed by the Imperium) is stronger at the moment. Sissy pinkos like shiloh need to move to the left and start denouncing your right to say what you want – then we can fully get over archaic notions of free speech, dialogue, and democracy.

  28. TACINURAZ
    November 19, 2004 - 06:17 PM on November 19th, 2004

    Does the Supreme Court say it is a mans right to incite violence against the government? AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH NO SHILOH!

  29. TACINURAZ
    November 19, 2004 - 06:19 PM on November 19th, 2004

    I guess your a nationalist socialist then Simon?

    November 19, 2004 - 06:23 PM on November 19th, 2004

    Read my website – I have been reported to Agents of the Imperium many times – but they have not yet come calling. Taking pleasure in the death of our troops is different than actually encouraging others to do so.

  31. shiloh
    November 19, 2004 - 06:28 PM on November 19th, 2004

    no it doesn’t. incitement to commit violence is not covered. if i interrupted the thread i apologize.

    36 – I had been playing elsewhere, but everybody keeps banning me, so I came back here. But I do have some really fun posts on dailypundit.com – the guy banned me, but not by IP address, so I started posting under the blog author’s name – great fun.

  39. TACINURAZ

    35. I have considered that. How ya doing Navy Sis?

    Simon, why do you have so much hate?

  42. TACINURAZ
    November 19, 2004 - 06:47 PM on November 19th, 2004

    Good. TKS. Simon has so much hate because he is a nazi. Left wing NAZI. He has so much hate because he cant stomp us out, and cant make us run. We say grace, we say maam, and if he ain’t into that we don’t give a damn.

  43. Rat
    November 19, 2004 - 06:54 PM on November 19th, 2004

    Let me go out on a limb here and try to help the helpless. Simon, you probably got banned because your message is complete shit and everyone reading it knows it. Only speculating mind you. Taking glee in the death of brave service men and stating that you’d like to wash your face in their blood may be correct, and I, a lowly slope-skull, wrong. Forgive me.

    November 19, 2004 - 10:28 PM on November 19th, 2004

    Just a suggestion in regards to Simon directed to conservative posters.

    There’s no reasoning with people’s ideas that they were never reasoned into.

    In short… People like SIMON offer up nothing but HATE and are a waiste of time to deal with.

    They have no new ideas. No original thoughts. No optimism. No happy thoughts. Just miserably, misery thoughts.

  48. shiloh
    November 19, 2004 - 10:35 PM on November 19th, 2004

    a man of constant sorrows empathizes with the poor and down trodden. not to say Simon is that person, not at all.

    the optimism comes with the plea to help them.

    the poor you will have with you always. not, i grant you, an original thought.

    still, we shouldn’t forget and should strive for solutions, right?

  49. Simon and the Lefties
    November 20, 2004 - 01:36 AM on November 20th, 2004

    46, 47 We are far past the time for striving for solutions, we can only strive for purity. The working class have earned none of their affection from the left. They must be cast aside or compelled to join our program !

    November 22, 2004 - 09:36 AM on November 22nd, 2004

    peejz;

    I have no idea what the exit strategy should be. But the President of the United States should.

    I don’t really see Europe and Iraq as good comparisons. I’m not sure what valid comparisons you can draw.
