Well, if war is hell, then dieing during a so called "peacekeeping" mission is more than hell.

Thx, Ripsnort,

Bad one; 11 Italian police officers, three Italian soldiers and eight Iraqis murdered according to the latest reports.
-
Italian President Carlo Azeglio Ciampi called the explosion a "terrorist act," and Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi said Italy would not be intimidated by the bombing and called on the country to unite as opposition parties said Italian troops should come home.
Different language... same old ****.
to those in harm's way. to those that give terrorist activity credibility by bowing to it.

MiniD, you can bet in the reversed situation (the actual opposition being in charge, and Berlusconi in opposition), the reactions would have been the same, sides swapped.
Dirty politicians.
I guess you are used too to this tricks, with Dem/Reps.
BTW, What's mean "bowing" (ignorant mind want to learn)?

Well Udet,
did I misunderstand your post? R u talking about Iraqi terrorists or what?
-
Bowing to terrorists:
If a terrorist wants you to stop, they kill your people. Bowing to terrorists is stopping what you are doing just because they will try to kill you if you don't.
When a terrorist kills 11 Italians in attempt to get Italy to pull out of Iraq, a very bad response is "well... we should pull out then."
Unfortunately, the opposition to the war will use any casualty as proof that trying to help is wrong.

Geeez Udet. 12 dead and you gotta make a joke out of it?
to the Italians, and a big TY for helping out.

Damn :(

and one american.
no one but his mamma seems to notice well and me.
-
to italians :(
-
Sorry for your losses.
Italy for your support.
Yeah LDV I saw the roadside bomb attack casualty as well but this is a new situation for the Italians. Doesn't make it any less painful to lose a troop though.
to those serving.
-
I was ashamed to be unaware before yesterday that Italy had people on the ground in Iraq.
I am however blessed to know that Italy is today a leader
among nations as demonstrated by her mortal sacrifice yesterday in Iraq. Being with those that are trying to finally give the people of Iraq a chance at breaking out of the cycle of oppression so obviously apparent in the attacks against those that would try to help.
Italy

Udet
I'm still waiting for your explanations ...

Bowing=Inchinare.
Thx Dinger, and MiniD.

Thank you so much to our Italian friends for standing by our side. Condolences to the Carabinieri and their family members. The enemy is not merely the enemy of the United States, but of freedom and liberty, and will attempt to intimidate anyone who is helping to restore Iraq.
From another forum:

There are two Italians posting to that thread. One seems to be GOI and is eager, along with his fellow teammates to punish those responsible. The other has acquaintences in the Carabinieri. Good luck and return safely!

Ok Udet, its confirmed your an idiot and a bastard. Too bad such a good community has SOB like you.

Yesterday the 19th italian has been declared technically dead. Among them ther is a NCO from my old Regiment. This morning I was driving in front of the the Carabinieri HQ in Rome, it has literally been paved with flowers. Some people was silently crying, someone was praying. It was moving.
You all should understand what Carabinieri are for Italian people. They not only belong to mechanized army, they patrol our streets, skyes and coasts. Their best units fight against "mafia" and "camorra" in the less accessible regions of italy, like Calabria and Sardinia mountains. You find them everywhere, even in the smallest village in Italy. They are very close to the people.
The "Tuscania" Carabinieri Para Regiment is closely linked to the "Folgore" Para Division and share their traditions of toughness. Thats becouse they are considered among the best units for peacekeeping missions.
