SOW THE WIND

The ethical and pure souls of the corporate cable media like CNN and MSNBC would sooner die than show the unconvenient consequences of the war for which they so relentlessly led cheers. (Sis boom bah!) And of course they won't dare highlight this the way they did with Clinton and Mogadishu.

They are spineless whores.

So it's up to us. Here. And here.

And then you can read this.

Furious Iraqis hacked up the charred bodies of two people, believed to be foreign civilians, and hung the remains from a bridge after their car was ambushed, saying this rebellious Iraqi town would be the "cemetery" of US-led occupation forces.

"Down with the occupation, down with America," they shouted as they hurled rocks at the bodies, one of them headless, that dangled from the bridge over the Euphrates River, an AFP correspondent witnessed.

The bodies were then taken down and placed on the ground for people to kick them and slash with knives.

Young men also strung a severed hand and a leg on an electricity pole on the main street of Fallujah, west of Baghdad, where the attack took place early Wednesday.

Four policemen in a car who were near the bridge at the time were seen leaving the scene without intervening.

The identities of the two dead, among several occupants of a convoy of civilian cars, were unknown. The coalition had no immediate comment on the incident, although US troops later sealed off the town.

The two vehicles burst into flames, and young men threw rocks and stones at the blazing wreckage. One body was seen burning inside one of the cars.

As the flames died down men pulled one of the bodies out, laid it on the ground and mutilated it with shovels, hacking off parts and shouting "long live Islam."

And then there's this evocative detail:

"The people of Falluja hanged some of the bodies on the old bridge like slaughtered sheep," Mohammed said. "I saw it myself."

The identities of the dead men were unclear.

Footage from Associated Press Television News showed one American passport near a body and one resident displayed what appeared to be military dog tags.
