MarcyMark, calling them "brainchildren" had to do with the fact that they threw gasoline on smoldering brush. Not a smart move if you are Iraqi, Coalition, or even if you are a mod.....lol. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Don't start me on whether or not it's racist, but the short answer is, no it was not.

You see smoldering brush indicates a near flame situation, and gasoline is highly flamable. It can even be explosively so.

Back on topic, you don't capture a POW by shooting him or setting him on fire.
