FALLUJAH, Iraq (AFP) - The US army has handed over seven unidentified bodies to police in the flashpoint northern town of Fallujah, commissioner Ahmad Alwan said.


"American forces contacted us to go and take seven unidentified bodies from their base near the Jordanian hopsital at the entrance to Fallujah," the police officer said.


The bodies, in black plastic sacks, were transferred Saturday to a Fallujah hospital where Dr Ali Khamis Sarhan said several local people with missing relatives tried but failed to identify the men.

1. This certainly is one creepy account.....
Edited on Sun Nov-30-03 12:26 PM by leftchick
<An AFP correspondent who saw the bodies said they all had bullet wounds, appeared young and were dressed in mud-encrusted tracksuits. Three had beards, often a sign of Islamist tendencies, and one wore an shirt of the disbanded Iraqi army.
A US military spokesman in Baghdad said he was checking the report.>

.....And seems the US hasn't come up with a story for this one yet.

2. If the bodies keep coming in bunches like this...
...the Iraqis may need to begin digging mass graves?

3. I think there are already many new mass graves since the war
Considering the awesome firepower of us.

4. Official: "Here's the receipt for your husband..."
Official: "...and here's my receipt for your receipt."

Mrs Buttle: "What have you done with his body!?"

5. The war machine piling up so many bodies, it can't keep track
Unfortunately, the resistance will return the favor.

6. We better leave now
without giving the Iraqis the opportunity for revenge.

Otherwise more and more of our braves will become gunpowder and kicked by Iraqis as shown for the Spaniards.
