    Did you expect anything else? There will always be some people who celebrate bad things happening to America, and they will not be limited to Iraq. But that story reminds me of the media broadcasting Palestinians celebrating 9-11, only to admit later that it was old tape, and the celebration had nothing to do with 9-11. Don't believe everything you read or hear on TV, radio or the net. Heck, we even have people calling our local talk radio claiming that the US goverment blew up the shuttle just to divert peoples attention from their other problems (war in Iraq, dismal economy, etc.). Perhaps you want to blast us also?

Am I the only one that see this as contridictory? Their claming that a lost of lives is a way of revenge for then.. granted there is a large amount of Americans without any morals what so ever..but does their religion promote death and distruction..I didn't think so. I think they deserve a really good kicking :P [Edit- stupid b end tag :P] -Steven CP Addict

                                God wants to show that his might is greater than the Americans. True, but we're a close second and with much less compassion. ;P Seriously though, Iraq could have done a world of help for themselves simply by expressing a little sorrow for the crew. Comments like that don't help them at all. Mike Mullikin :beer:

Put it this way, lets say someone wants to kill you because they don't think the color of your shirt looks good on you and all you have to do to prevent your murder is to shut a door would you shut the door or just hope that the bullet will do a JFK style flight pattern and will travel from point blank range of your head and completey miss you (in other words you shut the door or die) What would you Taka do? Shut the door or take it in the head? -:suss:Matt Newman / Windows XP Activist:suss:

                                    You seem to have totally missed the point of my comment. So one moron says something stupid and you want to bomb the lot of them? Something that one person says does not allow you to take it out on everyone because they happen to live in the same country or are from the same ethnic group. How many times do you think we are going to see or hear of Iraqi people expressing their sympathy or condolonces? We are manipulated more by the media than most of us would care to admit.

                                          Did you expect anything else? There will always be some people who celebrate bad things happening to America, and they will not be limited to Iraq. But that story reminds me of the media broadcasting Palestinians celebrating 9-11, only to admit later that it was old tape, and the celebration had nothing to do with 9-11. Don't believe everything you read or hear on TV, radio or the net. Heck, we even have people calling our local talk radio claiming that the US goverment blew up the shuttle just to divert peoples attention from their other problems (war in Iraq, dismal economy, etc.). Perhaps you want to blast us also?
