Here’s what a local grunt unit had to clean up after a terrorist cell had a mishap trying to plant a roadside bomb. The dead guys in the photographs evidently tried to hook up quite a few pounds of HME (homemade explosive) to an IED (improvised explosive device) that was charged by a car battery but while they were rigging it up, something went wrong and they all ended up with a one-way ticket straight to Allah.
Out in the Sandbox we don’t have special services to clean up such messes so it’s up to unlucky fuckers like us to do it. It’s ironically called a “working party” and it’s basically Marines of low ranks (Private to Lance Corporal) who have to do some random shit detail job that no rank Corporal would ever do. It’s often cleaning up bits of hadjjis like this after the scene has been investigated.
Funny, I really don’t feel any pity seeing these guys have their guts strewn about. Some of my civilian friends back home are disgusted by these photos and are baffled by my indifference (is it indifference? Maybe hatred would be a better word). These motherfuckers tried to kill me and they don’t even know me. Why should I feel sorry for them? I don’t think about what got them to this point in their lives because I couldn’t care less. They are the reason why I would come home in a flag draped box. They are the reason why I would come home missing an arm and a leg. They are the reason why Marines in my platoon can’t go home to their wives, to their children, to their mothers and fathers. So fuck ‘em.

those dead guys were denied any virgins when they entered paradise because they failed to take out any infidels or Americans- sucks to be them, they’re dead. Further, they’re not getting any vulva!!!!

those dead guys were denied any virgin vulva whatsoever when they entered unto paradise, because, they failed to take out or kill any infidels or Americans- sucks to be them.

YES
04.14.08 at 8:41 am
dead dudes look like extras in MJ’s thriller video. what happens to them then? buried? burned? wildlife bbq?
04.14.08 at 9:13 am
Wow.
Thanks for keeping it real. My breakfast is a little less appetizing right now, but I’m not eating MREs, so whatever. I’ll live.
The face, though? Come on.
04.14.08 at 9:39 am
hahahah…best photo captions EVER
04.14.08 at 10:51 am
Wow that was some intense humor.
04.14.08 at 11:18 am
i feel interesting…
nice reporting though. i like yr style.
04.14.08 at 12:43 pm
I feel like i just ate a big fuzzy sweater…and loved every bite!
04.14.08 at 1:09 pm
Gratuitous! Thanks. I don’t think these guys tried to kill ‘you’ though. ‘You’ shouldn’t feel sorry for them since they died for what they believed in. They are not the reason why ‘you’ would come home in a flag draped box or missing a limb (P.S. They’re dead you nitwit). They sure as hell are not the reason why Marines in your platoon can’t go home to their wives, to their children and to their mothers and fathers since you guys are all there voluntarily. On some posts you are all anti-war and shit and then you get sent on this job and get all crazy on us. I guess war will do that to you. Stay alive my Asian brother!
04.14.08 at 1:16 pm
herbie hancock. well said.
04.14.08 at 2:08 pm
they tried to kill you because you’re in their country fucking with them. If some asshole come over here and fucked with me I’d try to kill them too. nobody made you join the marines. I know we’re supposed to support the troops and it’s not their fault they’re there, but come on. actually, fuck that. I hope all the asshole jocks that signed up to join the marines get totally destroyed, and I hope somebody peels your face off and puts it on a fucking volleyball.
04.14.08 at 3:00 pm
” i hope someone peels your face off and puts it on a volleyball ”
don’t giv pakistan or any of those other capitalist countries any funny ideas
” i hope all the jocks who signed up to join the marines get totally destroyed ”
there’s isn’t a chance of that happening any time soon but it’s still funny that you said it.
04.14.08 at 3:53 pm
Used to be people would say, “Only a small fraction of Muslims are terrorists” (which is true but when you factor in how many million of them there are, a fraction becomes pretty big). Now people are even willing to side with the worst of the worst. Now they’re just good guys and you’re a dick for making them bomb you. Pretty amazing.
04.14.08 at 4:10 pm
I hope Tael lives, comes home in one piece and parties and gets laid while these fucks that stone women to death for getting raped keep blowing themselves up.
But lets not forget Tael’s “job” is to kill these guys. Their LIFE is to kill him. Like martin sheen’s character said in apocalypse now “R&R for Charlie is some cold rice and maybe a little rat meat. he had only one way home, victory or death”. The point being i know free college tuition is a pretty good motivator but good luck trying to continually occupy an arab country for the next 100 years against militants defending their own land and communities and religion.
To make it really worth it bro you should ask for shares in Exxon Mobile. instead of college money..oil is gonna keep going UP UP and AWAY…
04.14.08 at 4:20 pm
*Taeil* – yeah i didn’t edit the shit for 45 minutes
04.14.08 at 4:22 pm
i pray to god evey night for all the brave hipsters who have the courage to post on this site protesting against the war.
but could be bothered to get up and do it in real life.
point being you are all spineless pussys. yea the wars a joke but taeil finding humor in any situation is a godsend compared to losing your mind. so get back to pretending you understand nietzsche and eating vegan snacks at your local co op.
since i dont see any protesters on the streets. hippies would be ashamed of you.
04.14.08 at 6:09 pm
It would have been more hardcore if he had worn the dead guys face, Ed Gein-style.
04.14.08 at 6:20 pm
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
04.14.08 at 6:54 pm
Well, I, for one, am pretty disturbed. I’m having flashbacks of when i was in highschool surfing Rotten.com.
04.14.08 at 7:11 pm
i swear to god if one of you called me a hipster i would gonna smash you in your fucking face.
most guys could totally handle this army shit and thats a pretty good thing.
04.14.08 at 7:53 pm
this is like high school science class goes to war.
wwII makes these guys look like fairys.
04.14.08 at 7:59 pm

04.14.08 at 8:34 pm
Yeah this really reminds me of Rotten.com stuff. It’s odd how fake they actually look. Taeil, you really make some good points, and I admire your frankness and blatant honesty. Can’t wait to have you back home in the States.
04.14.08 at 10:10 pm
“killing is your business” How does this post make him pro-war all the sudden? It should be quite apparent to anyone with at the VERY least 90 I.Q. points that one can be anti-war, but ALSO against being killed by insurgents. I’m anti-war too, but if some fucker was trying to blow me up I wouldn’t hesitate to dispatch them with the extreme prejudice.
04.14.08 at 10:19 pm
“with extreme prejudice.” sorry.
04.14.08 at 10:19 pm
time to come home
04.14.08 at 10:37 pm
i saw some gnarly pictures of hamas leader and founder yassin after Israel fired missiles at his car. i think his face also got blown off. strange how that happens. and then there were pictures of rantinsi, his successor, who also got heavily ventilated. it’s strange and gnarly to look at pictures of mutilated bodies, even if they are the bodies of the lowest garbage on the planet, i don’t think it’s too healthy for normal people to see. Soldiers of course deal with it all the time. but knowing how many civilians these pieces of human garbage murdered means they deserve no pity points. anyways here are the pics, if you dare…

Dudes,
can you post blogs and pictures of jihadists too? I’d love to see some american bodies blown to bits as well, maybe they can carry around a cardboard cut out of osama with them and post the dead american soldiers next to him? fuck, that would be so fuckin’cool. Maybe some anal too, that’d be hot as well, some jihadists fucking dead american soldiers in the ass while they wear their blown off faces… holy shit, then it would be like the dudes were fucking themselves….
seriously though, these aren’t nearly as pornographic as they should be, come on you fucking pussy marines, let’s see some of the good shit! Let’s see the photos of you dudes pounding the corpses! Lubricate their asses with oil and go for the black hole baby!
04.15.08 at 8:12 am
Where are they going to get oil in that place?
04.15.08 at 10:11 am
so a few things about this post:
a.) since you started posting here on street carnage, your writing has sincerely suffered.
b.) the death of another human being is never really anything to rejoice about.
c.) iraq is hardly as awful as you make it out to be. case in point:
“These motherfuckers tried to kill me and they don’t even know me. Why should I feel sorry for them? I don’t think about what got them to this point in their lives because I couldn’t care less. They are the reason why I would come home in a flag draped box. They are the reason why I would come home missing an arm and a leg. They are the reason why Marines in my platoon can’t go home to their wives, to their children, to their mothers and fathers.”
no. they didn’t. when was the last time you were shot at? i mean, really, you sat in the back of an armored vehicle for an entire deployment. we never, ever hit an IED, and we only saw one.
in.seven.months.
if you ever at any point during this deployment felt that your life was in danger, then you, my friend, are retarded.
04.15.08 at 12:20 pm
Do you even read my blog? I tell people all the time how I get bored and out of my mind out here. And who do you think the hadjjis were gonna target with that IED? The camels? C’mon dude, you have to admit the Castaway reference was funny.
04.15.08 at 2:59 pm
it would be Hilarious if it was really tom’s face you were holding there, i can’t think of any hollywood actor more deserving. everyone agrees with me, hunt him down taeil, hunt HIM DOWN. when you get back to the States I mean.
04.15.08 at 9:55 pm
Yeah, Herbie Hancock!

You guys are all sick fucks who would rather kill someone and laugh at them than get along with them. Why? Just because they’re a different race than you? That’s just fucking sick!
You see, this is the problem with Americans now. They think that they are all high and mightier and more deserving than anyone else in the world. Why? Because of the freedoms we have? Because of all the propaganda on TV and radio? These are not necessity, these are luxuries, which means they were earned, IN BLOOD! Earned by people much better and wiser than you could ever hope to be. Who? Our forefathers who founded this country. They had all the bases covered, then enter the modern day tyrants and dictator style politics.
Think about it, if the Chinese were occupying our country like we are in Iraq, would you fight for your home and your family? I hope so. There is no war against terrorism. It’s a fucking LIE! Our soldiers are over there killing innocent people in the name of fighting terrorism, that’s just disgusting. If Chinese, or Russians were here and they had killed my family members, kicked in my door, you bet your ass I’d be putting bombs in the road, hanging machine guns out my window to protect myself from them. You people are the prime example of the success our media and our government has had when it comes to brainwashing. WAKE UP! Seems the American people believe anything they read or hear nowadays. Where did all this hate come from? Is this really the way we were all meant to extinguish each other? By dividing lines of color, race, religion, and personal beliefs? I see people fighting over the fucking music they listen to, TV shows, movies, just about anything they can disagree on. Point is, it’s our world and we’re destroying it and our credibility in it.
Good luck traveling anywhere in the world and admitting you’re an American, it’s just not safe anymore. Why? Because of attitudes like there are here in these comments. They don’t hate us because of our freedoms, they hate us because of what we’ve done to them for years on end. Change your attitudes toward other human beings or none of us have a chance.
04.18.08 at 3:37 pm
When did anyone make it about race you hysterical dick!? And have you actually gone anywhere outside the United States, or are you just bitching about it? In all probability, you’re one of those self-flagellating retards who thinks 9-11 was a hoax perpetrated by zionists so we can wipe Ayrabs off the face of the earth and steal their oil.
04.24.08 at 1:51 am
omg how can you show pictures like this so disgusting man how horrible i can not take the carnage and i don’t see how you people a either blah blah blah. man great pics man lol damn this is going to sound fucked up and all but man the pictures of them there dead was kinda including the comment about them frozen looking like there dancing funny hey i might be sick but i didn’t lose my sense of humor. and yeah to say shit about this, no body made you read this or look at this and they had it coming to them if you fuck with a bomb and don’t think it will go off hey fine with me.
05.05.08 at 11:54 pm

“You guys are all sick fucks who would rather kill someone and laugh at them than get along with them.”
Get to know some moslems, for the most part,they don’t want to get along with you and have a superiority complex to boot. As Europe becomes more islamicised and the native population has its pee-cee blinders skull fucked off its face, get ready for some ethnic cleansing that will make the Balkans wars look like a day in the park.
