Two missing US soldiers in Iraq killed: official

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Two missing U.S. soldiers in Iraq have been killed and their bodies were found, the spokesman for Iraq’s Defense Ministry said on Tuesday.

“The two soldiers were killed and they were found in Yusufiya near an electricity plant,” Major General Abdul Aziz Mohammed told a news conference in Baghdad.

He did not say when the soldiers were killed or when their bodies were found.

The soldiers went missing on Friday after insurgents attacked their checkpoint near Yusufiya, an al Qaeda stronghold south of Baghdad. A group linked to al Qaeda in Iraq said on Monday it had abducted two U.S. soldiers near Yusufiya.

Although I prayed for their safety, I did not expect us to find them alive. Pray for their families and for all the families of our fallen.

And now the moonbat family members are attacking Bush … go figure.

Missing soldier’s uncle criticizes U.S.

As the families of two missing soldiers waited to hear from the U.S. military Tuesday, the uncle of one lashed out at the government, saying it didn’t do enough to bring the men home safe.

“Because the U.S. government did not have a plan in place, my nephew has paid for it with his life,” Ken MacKenzie, uncle of Army Pfc. Kristian Menchaca, told NBC’s “Today” show.

“I think the U.S. government was too slow to react to this,” MacKenzie said Tuesday. “They should have had a plan in place.”

MacKenzie said the government should have offered a $100 million reward and offered to exchange mujahideen detainees for the soldiers’ lives. The government seized enough money from Saddam Hussein to afford it, he said.

We all know in “moonbat” language “U.S. Government = Bush”.   And of course, HE knows better how to run a war than, oh, say the Military. 

Mr. MacKenzie, I’m sorry for your loss, but get off your Cindy Sheehan high horse and deal with your pain out of the media.
