Holy Warriors Booby Trap Girls' School
The mujahideen keep giving us new definitions for the word “evil:” Military: New Iraqi school had bombs built in.
BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) — American soldiers discovered a girls school being built north of Baghdad had become an explosives-rigged “death trap,” the U.S. military said Thursday.

The plot at the Huda Girls’ school in Tarmiya was a “sophisticated and premeditated attempt to inflict massive casualties on our most innocent victims,” military spokesman Maj. Gen. William Caldwell said.

The military suspects the plot was the work of al Qaeda, because of its nature and sophistication, Caldwell said in an interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer.

The plot was uncovered Saturday, when troopers in the Salaheddin province found detonating wire across the street from the school. They picked up the wire and followed its trail, which led to the school. Once inside, they found an explosive-filled propane tank buried beneath the floor. There were artillery shells built into the ceiling and floor, and another propane tank was found, the military said.

The wire was concealed with mortar and concrete, and the propane tanks had been covered with brick and hidden underneath the floor, according to a military statement. Soldiers were able to clear the building.

“It was truly just an incredibly ugly, dirty kind of vicious killing that would have gone on here,” Caldwell said.

But the U.S. is the 'great Satan', right?

THIS is what an extreme example of what I mean when I refer to 'differences' in cultures ........................... granted, we have our 'lone psychos' committing abominable acts - occasionally, we have the 'folie à deux' {the sharing of delusional ideas by two people who are closely associated}, where 2 psychos find each other {Columbine} - please understand right now, I realize that most 'psychos' are, in fact, sociopaths/asocial personalities - creatures without a conscience, without the capacity for empathy - and we seem to have developed more than our fair share of the 'loner' variant - but you cannot convince me that the people who perpetrate such monstrosities as noted above are not sociopaths, one and all ..................... there is no more compassion than most exhibit for pesky insects - there is NO recognition of their victims as human, with the right to life.

It isn't too surprising, therefore, that those from OUR culture who would demand that the rest of us just roll over and surrender to the cant that "all cultures are equal" are many of the same people who insist that abortion-as-birth-control is a 'human right' {not much in the way of rights for the fetus, though} - the sooner that Western culture is eradicated, so goes much of the thinking, the better ...........................

Michelle Malkin has had the phrase "I will not submit" translated into some Arabic characters - that's going to be my next tattoo - when I get my EGA & rose re-done, it will be nearby ................................

Folks, the line has been drawn in the sand - hell, if you didn't notice, it was dug as a TRENCH on 9/11 - WE need to make decisions, as to what we will do, as individuals and communities ....................... this includes many more aspects than just the GWOT - illegal immigrants demanding 'rights' in this country is right up there in priority - I don't get in someone's face re: abortion {my spousal unit is pro-choice}, but if asked, I will give my opinion {it needs to be available for rape/incest; but I've met women who have decided it was a method of birth control, ie, repeated abortions; it should NOT be taxpayer financed} ............................ just my thoughts on the 'culture wars' ............................

If I may ask your collective indulgence, please keep my spousal unit in your thoughts tomorrow - it's the one year anniversary that his 'Miss Sylvie' died - she'd been with him 18 years - her ashes are on his bookcase in his home office ......................... she was a sweet old girl, who would play like a kitten almost to the very end ......................... St. Francis, please give her some Pounce, catnip and some lizards to chase ....................... we miss you, Miss Sylvie ...........................
