Goddamn barbaric country are we trying to "liberate"???? Who the f*ck would do this????

http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/meast/08/22/iraq.boy/index.html

Obviously we are trying to liberate the people like this boy's family that don't deserve to live in conditions like this, but WTF.....How can anyone see honor in the **** these crazy extremists use to perpetuate fear in Iraq???

Sorry, this one just blew me away. I know these stories are a dime a dozen, but this one kicked me in the jimmy hard for some reason...

    The Clubhouse forum is available for any and all things not audio...with certain restrictions for religion and politics. I guess his post could fall under those categories but it is really about the world and/or the "Human Condition". To each his own. If it is of no interest...no one will respond and it will fade into the depths of the forum. It is about sad, deplorable act...and while not pleasant, it exists and maybe should be brought to light...even here.

    i'm speechless.... how can one human being do that to another? especially a child. Those masked men who did that are not human beings. Why do the most horrific disgusting things come out of Iraq?

    If need be I can remove it....

    This isn't meant to point at a specific religion (although I did say muslim, maybe I should've just said "extremists" in general) or a certain political belief (I think dems and reps are full of ****.)

    It just struck home with me for some reason. maybe b/c I have a 5 year old nephew. Maybe b/c of the senselessness of it all.

    If you want me to remove it I'll be glad to. Now back to your regularly scheduled 1/2 naked chicks, bad jokes and speaker woodies. Carry on...

    edit: Removed muslim from the initial post to remove all political or religious references, as per HTrookie's request.

    sad thing is, I'm not surprised. what surprises me is that others are surprised that this is what radical fundamentalist islamic terrorists are capable of. If they can press a button and kill everyone that does not believe there exact belief, they'd do it in a heartbeat.

    killing kids aint nothing to them. these are the guys trying to kill us. it so transends the silly politics we worry about on a daily basis. we worry about abortion, healthcare gun control.:rolleyes:

    Barbaric things happen in all wars. Maybe the story isn't true?

    Civilians and children always get the worst in war.

    Sad.
