Yes, dragged and hanged from a Euphrates bridge. Most US media has blurred out the gruesome details, but iīve seen the entire footage, with no cuts or blurred out sections.
This incident is somewhat reminescent of Somalia, when the somalis dragged the corpse of one Delta team member, when of the blackhawk incident.
Those images spurned the USīs withdrawel from Somalia. I wonder what these images will do today?
Reports indicate there were 4 vehicles, not 2, but 2 managed to escape while the other 2 were trapped. The vehicles were probably bullit proof, wich would explain why the occupants remained inside, where they were later incinerated when the iraqis set the vehicles ablaze.
But the question remains:
What the hell were they doing there, in a city where not even Saddam dared enter, and where the US army has no presence whatsoever?
And no rescue effort was conducted?
:rolleyes:
