Dunno if this has already been posted, but I just saw it. Forget the soldiers, start killing the civilians instead!! :roll:


Finns shot and killed in Baghdad
22/03/2004 - 11:54:57

Two Finnish businessmen were shot and killed in Baghdad today.

The men, part of a technological delegation visiting the Iraqi capital, were shot outside the Ministry of Electricity.

“They were on their way to the ministry to make business contacts as part of a larger group,” said Markus Lyra from the Finnish Foreign Ministry. He did not identify the victims.

It is likely that the delegation, which arrived at the weekend to renew pre-war contacts in Iraq, will cut short its visit and return to Finland, Lyra said.

Neutral Finland, which opposed the invasion of Iraq, has no troops in the country.

Hmmm....

We kinda had a topic for it here:

But I guess it's better to make a official one for it.

This just proves that there are still Islamists that need to be killed/captured.

I guess most blonde Finns look kinda like Americans in Iraq, not a good thing obviously.

Yeah, it must be that becuase it couldn't possibly be that the terrorists don't give a f*ck if Finland is neutral... Then again, maybe they knew their targets were Finnish and were hoping one was you Mustamato. p-)

No.. this just proves that your an idiot.
Most people simply fart... George talks out of his ass.

Of course, since the only killings in Bagdhad are terrorists related.. Finnish businessmen couldn't have been a target of common criminals or some hate crime because of what they look like.

I swear the verbal flatulance on this forum is really starting to make me ill.

Face it - any foreigner in Iraq is a potential target. To ponder "for whom" is pointless. And hair/skin color doesn't have Jack to do with it.

I would've preferred to make my "triumphant" return with a better topic, but I guess I can't win all the time.

Mind litte experiment? Let's send mustamato to Iraq - even if he looks like a Japanese or some guy from El Salvador it won't help him out...

One thing is for sure, if I was sent to Baghdad I wouldn´t look like a businessman
from the western world. And I wouldnt exactly hang outside the Iraqi ministry of
electricity (I guess some people - as I myself - thinks oil when I hear that). If I
were In Iraq I would like more like the dude on the left with the blue/white
shirt shouting "Jalla Jalla":

... by the way, shouldn´t the American have the sling around the neck, so
that a Iraqi can´t kick him on the balls, take his weapon and run away with it,
and dissapear among the crowd. Hm.

Bad idea, if the people in the crowd grabs the rifle, the soldier would just be dragged with it (this has happened).

I'd say that its better to loose the occasional rifle than the occasional service man...
