Chlorine truck bomber kills 27 in Ramadi

Jihadists carry out yet another chlorine attack. By Bassem Mroue for Associated Press:

BAGHDAD - A suicide bomber driving a truck loaded with TNT and toxic chlorine gas crashed into a police checkpoint in western Ramadi on Friday, killing at least 27 people and wounding dozens, police in the Anbar provincial capital said.

In the deep south of the country, the Basra police commander said the type of roadside bomb used in an attack that killed four British soldiers on Thursday had not been seen in the region previously. Maj. Gen. Mohammed al-Moussawi's description of the deadly weapon indicated it was a feared Iranian-designed explosively formed penetrator.

Two more of the bombs were discovered planted along routes heavily traveled by U.S. and British diplomats in Basra. Weeks earlier, the American military had claimed Iran was supplying Shiite militia fighters in Iraq with the powerful weapons, known as EFPs. They hurl a molten, fist-sized copper slug capable of piercing armored vehicles.

The bombing in Anbar province marked the ninth use of suicide chlorine bombs in the sprawling, mainly desert territory that has been a stronghold of the Sunni insurgency.

Just be glad these homicidal psychopaths have no knowledge of how to use chloride gas.

They're like an idiot who beats someone to death with a hand grenade instead of pulling the pin.

(Muslim ladies in fatigue pants experiencing road rage only use dummy grenades, luckily. SEE : 'Love Field' article elsewhere on the site.)

It's interesting that they use trucks full of chlorine gas and TNT, rather than skipping the chlorine and just using more TNT. It suggests that their supplies of TNT are finite

Explosives killed the Shiites, not chlorine gas. Though some may have long term damage due to chlorine gas exposure. Was it Shiites who were killed by Sunnis? That's my guess.

Sunnis are more serious about these mass murder bombings. I can't think of any done by Shiites. All I know is that with today's modern explosives Muslims get to exponentially ramp up Muhammad's assassination directives. Mo' had to waste the polytheists one at a time

it is only a matter of time before the Muslims use:

Amiton
Pfib
Ricin
vx
Sarin
Soman
Tabun
Mustard gas
Lewisite
Cynide
Nitrogen Mustard gas
Sulphur Monochloride
SUlfur Dichloride
Thionyl chloride


...or worse....(THey have them, SADDAM had them)...

...The world will see....

..By the way, US forces have found artillery shells containing most of the above listed chemicals....the dhimmicrats say they are not WMD because they are old....


...Mustard gas and other NErve gases from WWI are still effective...

It's tough keeping score when the perps aren't identified.

Pretty soon they will figure out the proper amount of explosives to use. If too much is used, a lot of gas is consumed in the explosion. If too little is used, the vessel may not rupture.

If chlorine trucks start disappearing in the US and elsewhere, we should seriously start looking for gas masks and other personal protective equipment (PPE). The worrisome part is that law enforcement will keep any theft of a chemical truck as quiet as possible.

On second thought, I'm going to start looking for PPE right now. (any military surplus store or an industrial supply retailer)

Please posters do not post specifics in chemicals as while there are engineers in the terrorist field there are also allot not too bright Muslims reading on this site and they don't need any more help.

And for the record, Syria and Saddam already have murdered Darfur Christians with chemical weapons.......and enough of the food poisoning showing up is not about food poisoning, so they already have graduated to other methods years ago.

Posted by: Lame Cherry [TypeKey Profile Page] at April 6, 2007 11:41 AM

The Muslims already have the Chemical weapons, they have had them for years, some they manufactured and some they purchased from Pakistan, NOrth Korea, and some some China...Other chemical weapons furnished by Iran,Egypt,and Syria....


The ones I listed are already in the terrorists hands....they already know about them....

The dhimicrats are an old hat indeed. And old hat out of which spring such suddenly limber fossils as Hanoi Jane. In true islamist fashion she has lived to Hanoi us another day.

As for the gas.. the islamist windbags are always full of nasty hot air. Prick them just a lttle and watch them explode with rage!

They pass gas five times a day at their "face down-ass up" prayer meetings.

For my money it's moslem flatulence which is responsible for all the Global warming in the World.

There is a great book for reference.

http://www.ebookstand.com/books.grp/BR1930.html

"Weapons of Mass Destruction Found" by MAJ Bryan Russell, USAF

This book goes into detail about what the declassified stuff we did find in Iraq. Chlorine gas is benign compared to this. These findings have been publically available... well they were until the NYT complained that the declassified documents translated from Iraq were detailed enough to list HOW to build nuclear devices, chemical weapons, and other nasty things.

Funny, I didn't know the NYT was so interested in US national security.....

Major Russell is stationed near me and I got to talk to him at a book signing. We went into detail on what was found and how much more cannot be shared as it clearly points to WHO gave the weapons to Saddam.

Here's a hint: none were manufactured in the USA or AUS or the UK. We did find French weapons in Iraq with manufacture dates of 2003. That I can tell you. just like we have found Iranian equipment all over Iraq on all sides of the conflict.

So explain to me why we want Muslims in the west? As if this sort of behavior is'nt hardwired into the Islamic mind. This story made me think of that chocolate Jesus statue. I'm thinking of creating a Pig Fat Profet Mohammed. Take about 300lbs of rendered pig lard and sculpt it into a statue and name it Pigfat Mohammed. You could wrap him in linens and burn it like a giant candle and post it on youtube. I wonder how many of these idiots would would die rioting in the street.

Guys come on let us not lose too many crocodile tears on the so called victims of this operation. They were traitors to their country men and Islam. Working for the US dollar above Instead of Allah, the creator of all.

Your right , they want so bad to be like us but can't come out if the closet!!!

Abdullah,
As I said before, come to Iraq and see who the REAL enemy is (Hint, it is NOT the USA, UK, AUS, or any of the other 30 nations here). Or if that is too difficult, just look in a mirror to see the face of hate and ignorance.

You disgust me. These are women and children who get killed by your so-called "holy warriors". "Demon worshipping cowards" is a FAR BETTER description of these "warriors".

Come to Iraq Abby and try to push your idiocy here. Pray the Iraqi PEOPLE do not slaughter you where you stand. PRAY that one of us "infidels" finds you and saves you from your racist hatred.

Wow, a 300 lb. rendered pig lard statue of old Mo.

That would be worth 2 bucks to see, at least!

Lets stick a perpetually fuse lit bomb turban on it and grant all muslims free tickets and then watch the fun!

Have a contest for them to see if their face down-ass up "passings" can blow the fuse out!
