Request for FR monitoring
Peace group hostages have been freed in Iraq as per CNN:
http://www.cnn.com/2006/WORLD/meast/03/23/iraq.hostages/index.html

I'm wondering if the freepers will be more focussed on the good job our boys did in this rescue or if they will be saying that they should have let the peaceniks stay captured. I can't bring myself to look at their site but I know that some of you do. Thanks.

1. Oh, it's as vile as you'd expect.
I don't understand how one can live a full life being so full of anger, hatred, and just general contempt of anything or anyone that disagrees with you. Here's some of the knuckledraggers comments on the rescue:


FreakRepublic


To: Echo Talon
I am glad these fools were released but hope they keep their mouths shut. So the torture/murder rate for this group was 25%.

I suspect we'll hear how their captors were kind and how the US is evil.

Idiots.

==========

To: prisoner6
Apparently their little charade fizzled. Now get ready for the anti American "statements" from the released commies.

============================

To: Dallas59
Except for the dead/tortured one. The comments praising his captors have to be left to his Quaker comrades in the States.

Sorry if this sounds harsh. These fools end up getting US troops killed.

I think we need to start calling these hostages "Sgrenas" after the horrid Italian communist whose carelessness and agenda got an Italian agent killed.

Of course, the Italians ended up charging the US soldier who defended the checkpoint for murder.

So - 3 Sgrenas released.

============================

To: daybreakcoming
And since CPT was against military intervention to save them, if they'd like to go back?

=============================

To: daybreakcoming
I will be curious to hear whether the "prisoners" fought against being rescued or went happily.
Or if they have converted to Islam and now stick their butts in the air 5 times a day...

========================

To: prisoner6
There is something about this group that just doesn't smell right!
My initial belief that this was staged still stands.

=========================

To: Dallas59
I ain't shedding any tears...Christian Peace Team can go to hell.
These people are like the leeches here in the U.S. They get everything handed to them on a platter and all they do is complain they aren't getting enough.

=======================

Excuse me while I go vomit then shower.

2. "Christian Peace Team can go to hell." There's your typical freeper
mindset right there. A total disconnect with their base, their values, and absolutely no appreciation for irony.

3. They get everything handed to them on a platter and all they do...
"They get everything handed to them on a platter and all they do is complain they aren't getting enough."

Well, first of all that sounds a lot like:
a) The Republicans
b) The Christian Right
c) Yellow Elephants

Secondly, they didn't just complain. They actually went to Iraq and put their lives on the line for what they believed in.

While I don't agree with some of the causes the Christian peace group was involved in, I respect them for doing what the Republican chickenhawks won't-- putting their lives on the line.

Fighting for an ideal is easy. Living up to it is hard.

Stupid chickenhawk Freepers.

4. Tweety had a Free Republic spokesman on his show. I emailed
Hardball to tell them how disgusted I was that they would give that kind of recognition to such a hateful, bigotted, racist group. I was shocked and disgusted!! Guess I'll forward these comments to MSNBC and ask them why they are allowing Tweety to advertise for people like this.
