I remind people that the jihadists started this war decades ago. Whatever unfortunate things happened afterwards can be traced directly back to Islam which authorized this war in the first place.

THOU SHALL NOT KILL, PERIOD. Posted by drmaqazi
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First, this article is about a woman who was wounded, NOT killed.

Second, the actual commandment, according to the Bible is, "thou shall not MURDER."

There is a difference.

Station spokesman Muhsin Kadhum told The Associated Press that Emad had just left the station and was crossing the street to get a taxi when she was shot.
**************

So she leaves the station, like always, crosses the steet to get a taxi, like always, and then gets shot because now her daily activity was suddenly a threat to someone.

According to the new SOFA, the Iraq government can now go and arrest the American soldier(s) that fired. Anybody ever hear the term, "Star Chamber".

Interesting, shoot a woman, then the troops left the area, according to reports. Apparently not interested in confirming that she was/was not a risk. They just knew they put her down. After about 40 of these cases, we''ll have another 10 billion in legal costs defending troops who now have to answer to the Iraqi authorities. Remember now, Bush negotiated and signed off on the Status of Forces Agreement-the right wingnutjobs can''t pin it on Obama when the deal puts us in the barrel.

It looks like her husband failed her miserably.

-An Iraqi police officer told the AP that Emad was walking with her husband and ignored warnings from U.S. troops to stop. The officer spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to release information.-

Was her husband hard of hearing as well? Why they heck didn''t he give her a heads up that she was being yelled at to stop, especially at a checkpoint that has seen alot of suicide bombers.

no matter what kind of garbage our government will feed us.....the war on terrorism holds much blame as to the economy of the world,,,,,people would be naive to think that the billions wasted there did not hurt the economy....and still are. the only ones that don''t seem to need a bailout are the defense contractors.....looks like them and the big oil companies ended up with everything.

I see the dumbest humans on the face of the earth are still treating the illegal invasion of Iraq as something legit.
