WTF do you mean "too dangerous?" We're fighting in Iraq insurgents

[bribri16]

who are bombing us and want to kill us all and we say that NO is too dangerous? WTF!!!!

If these people are "lawless" they are desperately trying to get some attention and help. I would be "lawless" under the same circumstances.

It is criminal and uncivilized that we can't even get a caravan of buses and trucks to pick these people up beacuse "we are afraid of looters." Where are all the fucking Rambos who want to fight for this country? These people are our country!!! We can't even drop food and water from the helicopters...no wonder someone took a shot at them.

1. They're shooting at unarmed rescuers

As I said in another thread, they stated that two rescue choppers have been hit by gunfire, and one soldier was wounded. A bunch of rescue boats that went out this morning came under fire and were forced to withdraw. FEMA is suspending operations until they can get armed protection for the rescuers so they can shoot back.

Sorry no link, they were talking about it on the radio a few minutes ago.

2. Why haven't we been dropping

water & MRE's to these people for that last three days? Yes, they are desperate and angry. Will it take actually shooting some of these poor people to get control? or should they start with the supplies they are desperate for?

3. That's due to the lack of National Guard...

Of course, we all know where they are.
