8 yr old girl kills soldier in iraq
 

Just seen on sky news that an 8 yr old girl strapped with a remote control bomb, has killed a soldier.I cannot believe how low these people will go, the girl probably didn't even know what the thing was.

I think that put's all the small things we gripe about into prespective.
Whatever the reason for stooping so low as to use an eight year old child in such a way strikes horror in all people's of the world.
There should be no mercy for the animals guilty of this murder.

without having any info, i would say its a knocking bet the child was disabled mentally or physically, as these dregs of humanity place no value on these poor souls.:mad:

To what extent should a people go in order to throw out an invader? Agreed this is a terrible and horrifying way to fight; but I think something like this obscures the point that all this would not be happening if GWB had not had a hard on for invading someone ... to the point that, along with Blair, he manufactured a causus belli ... the weopons of mass destruction. The truly sad thing is that in Iraq we have long since passed the point of no return; even if the occupying forces were to leave tomorrow, they have managed to screw up the country to such an extent, that horror stories like these will be coming out of that part of the world for a long time.

OMG! That is awful! The girl involved must have known the bomb was planted on her! She was probably brain-washed like all the other suicide bombers.

I hope the British Government also have a very serious enquiry into why and who was responsible for this childs death.
I think our troops should, and to my mind have always adhered to the Geneva Convention.......If a serviceman is faced with a life threatening situation..........they should be able to quell the situation by whatever means possible..........I was taught very early in my army career...look for the one who is causing the most trouble and is armed...he is the enemy.
Bring him down.
Our lads are out in the most volatile countries in the world...not their choice...and should be backed by both the government and the people of the UK.
I refer to the man who was alledged to have died at the hands of British Forces:
BBC NEWS | UK | Public inquiry into Iraqi's death
Will we ever know what situation at the time these lads were in and what had gone on...I doubt it.
Cut the crap...this is war and whatever the outcome we want our lads and lasses home and safe.

Not sure I understand why our government should have a serious enquiry ?

Anyway the story has changed and the girl beleived to be 16 yr old. That would suggest she knew what she was doing.

They are just brainwashed.
