The Fun Never Ends at DU!

This is just too good to ignore. There's a thread at Democratic Underground called If you were an "insurgent" in Fallujah, what would you do? There aren't many responses, but a few are hilarious. Check out the original post:

If you were an "insurgent" in Fallujah, what would you do?

Knowing that the Marines and US Army were coming thru with all their modern weapons of war and were going to search your home and person for any evidence of insurgency? Would you stand and fight against such an overwhelming force? Or would you have another strategy to fight another day?

It's probably very difficult to try and put ourselves into the shoes of an Iraqi insurgent, but if I were in that situation, I think I would hide or bury my weapons and move out of town for a while. I don't think this is the time that most will choose martyrdom. So I don't think American forces will find a lot of weapons or find a lot of people to arrest. Just my opinion.

See what I mean? This person is fantasizing about BEING THE ENEMY! Let's see how the others respond:

Roadside Bombs....With radio detonators. Just have little kids with radio detonators. Use old artillery shells, bury them in roads all over the place and just wait.

Little kids. With detonators. What a patriot. Moving on:

I would lay low and wait for the Americans to leave

Then I would go back to living a long and normal life. I would pray that the efforts to introduce democracy over fanatic rule succeeds.

Education is the problem in Iraq. Many of the people there have been brainwashed since birth to hate and hate is never good. I would work to stop the brainwashing of children.

Oh, good. They're not all crazy. Of course, one poster disagrees:

But how would you respond to the coming massacre?

What if the US kills your innocent family?
How would you respond then?
What if the US fences you in and gives you the IDF treatment:
death by prison camp?

Were I an Iraqi today, anywhere in Iraq, I would be
organizing and planning and laying down defenses.
The firestorm comes quickly.

Brilliant. Let's keep going:

agreed - I would be out finding a weapon today!

no matter if I was involved in the earlier atrocities or not.

do you think the U.S. makes a differentiation? How many of those in Cuba are innocent? does anyone care?

(hmmm...perhaps I should buy a weapon in the U.S. now - since there's no telling what will happen - even here?)

Yep. They're not anti-war. They're just on the other side. How could this get any better, you ask? Well, here's one person who thinks that the Iraqis would be better off with Saddam:

Sounds like education is a problem for you, sir.

We are not trying to introduce democracy in Iraq,
and the people there are not brainwashed to hate from
birth any more than you are, Saddam would not have allowed
that, he didn't like the rabble getting violent any more
than the people that brainwashed you. The children in Iraq
are not brainwashed, they are brutalized, and we are
continuing the process better than Saddam could have ever
hoped to.

You heard it here first. The Saddamster cares about The Children™ more than Bushchimperialist™ and his squad of Americanazis™. I can't stop now:

They are not "insurgents," they are freedom fighters They don't want Saddam, but they also don't want an American jackboot on top of their heads.

They. Support. The. Enemy. How wonderful.

The next poster gives the most concise answer to the original question:

Kill Americans

Duh!

Great. The next one employs a bit more strategery:

find a weapon and fire it months of sustained action eventually forced the occupying army to abandon its positions within the city. In their place, I would not allow them to be regained.

I'm going to stop now. I have to bang my head against the wall until I pass out. It's preferable to being awake in a world where people with opinions like this are still somehow intelligent enough to use computers. It just doesn't make sense.

*THWACK* *THWACK* *THWACK* *THUD*

....aaaahhhh...that's better......................

My God in heaven. "Kill Americans."
I'm speechless. CD, man, dont bang your head against the wall. Find that MF and beat his bleeding head against the wall. Dear lord, if "he" wants to kill Americans so bad, even hypotheticaly, the joker should start wiht "himself," save someone else a length of rope. Grief.
Sorry for that, but i'm more than a bit pissed by that.
Thanks for raising the blood pressure for the day.

were I a soldier, and came across these DU punks in a war zone. All I've gotta say is "lock and load"

These are Americans? How could they? You have no idea how much this upsets me. They are talkig about killing MY HUSBAND and his friends! I just don't understand how anyone can make these kind of statements.

It's good to know I'm not the only person who was horrified that Americans could make statements like this. It's pretty sick.

But remember, you can't question their patriotism. They're patriotic, but they just happen to love a different country!

My answer to their question would be: leave Iraq and move to the nearest civilized country, get a job, work hard, save for retirement, live peacefully, die quietly.
