Two US soldiers missing in Iraq since Friday have been found dead south of Baghdad, Iraq's defence ministry says.

Spokesman Gen Abdul Aziz Mohammed said the bodies were found in the Yusifiya area. The US military has not yet confirmed the statement.

An insurgent group linked to al-Qaeda in Iraq had claimed it abducted the soldiers from a checkpoint.

The missing men have been named as Kristian Menchaca and Thomas Tucker, both from the 101st Airborne Division.

One US soldier was killed in the attack on the checkpoint.

When will the sheeple realize that this war is not going to get any better anytime? Just saw "Fog of War" over the weekend (it was on the History Channel), i recommend it for the righty/neo-cons.

The US should brutally retaliate for this

Yes, line them all up and shoot every 10th person. They thought Saddam was a bad ass, well meet the "liberators" who brought you "democracy".

This goes back to the concept of fighting a war. Either you do it, or you don't. If we've decided that we're too civilized to fight the war on their terms, we must concede and leave, because we will never be able to fight this war on our terms, whilst on their land.

I won't argue with that logic. That is why we lost in Vietnam and why we shouldn't have invaded Iraq in the first place unless we were POSITIVE that they had WMD's. The Iraqis/ME now claim the moral high ground, good job brownie.

We defeated the Axis powers during WW2 without lowering ourselves to their level. Using your logic we should of starved , bayoneted and then beheaded Japanese prisoners and done mass execution with the German prisoners.

I'm sure we've already retaliated in advance many times over by now.

But still, sad news indeed. War is $hit.

I don't know which history you've been reading, but you should certainly tell your side of the story to the citizens of Dresden, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, etc...

P.S. WE didn't defeat ****** in WWII... we got involved in actual combat when the only question that remained was how much of europe would USSR gobble up. And if you think Red Army soldiers were very humane upon the lands of those that wrought such horrors in their homeland, you are both ignorant and insane.

Agree completly. Mao said somthing to the effect: The population are like water, and the insurgents is like a fish. Take away the water and the fish die.

And it's totally true!

West is too weak to fight a war like that today. Same reason we lost VN we will lose in Iraq. Terrorists and insurgents know you commit sniping/IED, meld back into population, rinse repeat everyday until puplic get tired of seeing thier young men slaughtered. It's already happened..by 2008 even most neocons will be begging for a way out.

God bless these young men sent on a fools errand.
 
Word is they were mutilated to death and video is coming soon on islamic websites.

These savages really need the whole Sunni triangle nuked.

Where is anmesty international? Murtha?

I'm so pissed.

Yep, if you are the aggressor / invader, as the US is in Iraq, the only way to win is through complete and total pacification. If you are the defender, all you have to do to win is drive off the invaders. If the invader is not willing to do whatever it takes to ensure complete and total pacification, he will never win.

Load up the troops and bring them home.

Right, we should just leave. Actually, we should have never been there in the first place. I mean, it's not the US's responsibility, as a world power, to ensure that the rights of all human beings remain intact. We should have just let Saddam stay in power and continue his genocide. What were the Neo-cons thinking? I can't believe that they would put my little white house on the line, with my 3.5 kids and my $100,000/year job just to go rid the world of it's worst dictator.

What would you weak, spineless liberals be saying if you were actually feeling the effects of this war? Most of you aren't affected by it at all an yet youy still b!tch and moan. Oh, right that's your party slogan.

"B!tch and moan"

Have a nice day. Thank you to the troops who are willing to stand up for what is right. Hopefully when they do return the liberals won't try and shame them like they did to the vets from Vietnam. That's the legacy of the liberals, shaming those who have the courage to stand up for what is right.
