FALLUJAH, Iraq
The U.S. military is investigating the killing of a wounded and apparently
unarmed Iraqi prisoner inside a mosque during combat operations here, the
Defense Department told NBC News on Monday. NBC's Kevin Sites, who
witnessed the incident Saturday while assigned to represent a pool of news
organizations, reported Monday that the man was shot by a Marine who
appeared to be unaware that the Iraqi was a wounded prisoner and did not
pose a threat.

The SOB probably deserved to die! Who knows what the marine saw the Iraqi
do just moments before he shot the prick. The marine's buddy was probably
blown up and the Iraqi prisoner was taunting the marine about it. Kill them
all and let God sort them out.

> Who knows what the marine saw the Iraqi do

"Marines I spoke with said the young Marine was "probably under combat
stress in unpredictable circumstances," and said it was probably the act of
a young man "who faced intense pressure during the effort to quell the
insurgency in the city."

"A colonel who recently returned from his second tour of duty in Iraq, told
Arab News the Marine in question was wounded in the face the previous day;
and that a Marine in the same unit had been killed a day earlier, and five
others wounded, as they tended to the booby trapped dead body of an
insurgent."

"They use bodies as booby traps all the time," said the Marine colonel, who
spoke anonymously. "They wait until Marines are close, then they detonate
themselves. From what I hear, the unit didn't know those guys were supposed
to be there.

"Those poor kids - they're on duty day in and day out, and have to deal with
corpses and wounded guys that are booby trapped - the insurgents do this all
the time. We had incidents where they detonated themselves either in a car
full of explosives or with suicide belts," said the colonel.

This is the story most of our country needs to read, twice, before
they *blindly* support sending soldiers into battle.

If you do it knowingly, then that's fine.

In summation:

Speaking out against POWs being shot and killed = sick bastard.

Supporting POWs being shot and killed = proud American.

You haven't seen hand to hand either so what are you talking about?
Marines are top notch. You are not. So whatever ideas you have are the
same brand of armchair quarterbacking as Phyloe.

US military plays by the rules. If not then who does? Why don't we all
become war criminals and call it a day?

What is the difference between a Marine and a murderer?

The murderer kills with no purpose other than his own pleasure or
gain. The Marine kills for the mission's sake to accomplish whatever
goal is the order of the day. The Marine starts/stops killing on
command. If he can't then he is no longer a Marine. He is a failure
who cracked under pressure.

If there are no standards and punishments for failure then there is
only mediocrity. Marines and mediocrity are not to be used in the same
sentence.

Some civilians can't understand why we kill in war. Others simply
cannot understand why we don't just kill everything that moves and let
Jesus sort them out. And that is why they are civilians. They are too
scared to fight properly, too weak to understand, too inept to be a
Marine. Best to weed out the losers than to weaken the whole.

Before everyone gets all hysterical, there are reasons for
investigations. In the heat of battle "rules of warfare" get pretty
fuzzy; nonetheless, there is a line that most combat soldiers know
shouldn't be crossed. An investigation will determine if that
happened.

If you have never seen it, rent the 1980 Aussie film "Breaker
Morant"--we actually used it in our "Law of Land Warfare" classes in
the Marines. It takes place during the Boer War, and examines an
Australian unit's methods for dealing with Boer irregulars. War is a
messy business, not to be entered into lightly.

Yup, I've seen "Red Dawn" too. However, I would not travel to another
country as many of these "insurgents" have in order to shoot american
servicemen. That is, by definition, a terrorist. Or, if you do it for pay,
a mercenary.

I've read enough already to form an opinion. War is hell ! Bad
things happen. Our troops are trained to kill people and break
things. They are not trained to take prisoners of people who are
booby trapping them and shooting them while pretending to be
dead. The marine was protecting his unit AND the embedded
camera person from being shot by a what did you call it, oh yeah,
insurgent.

I never got started. If you notice I left it alone. I only made a
comment when the armchair warriors of reeky such as Timmie, yourself,
etc... lobbed their two cents as though it had any value whatsoever.

My comments have no bearing at all in the investigation, which will
run its course. But if I can remind you and others of your immaturity
in such matters I will. Even if I am immature myself, it doesn't take
superiority to spot foolishness.

Prove the guy was a POW.
Apparently he was wounded the day before and never taken into custody.
Does that make him a POW?


Two men seen slumped against wall
After the Marines that Sites accompanied entered the mosque, the video
showed two other men slumped by a wall. Sites’ account said the men, who
were hurt in the previous day’s attack, had been shot again by the
Marines on Saturday.

The Marine seen shooting the insurgent had been wounded in the face a
day earlier and quickly returned to action, Sites reported. The Marine
has not been identified.

Another Marine in the man's unit was killed the previous day by the
booby-trapped body of an insurgent, a fact that international legal
experts said could provide the Marine with a defense if charges are
filed against him. A key issue was whether the injured man was a
prisoner at the time, they said.

International legal experts said protection of injured combatants once
they are out of action is a basic rule in warfare but that the Marine
shown in the video may have acted in self-defense.

Charles Heyman, a British infantry veteran and senior defense analyst
with Jane’s Consultancy Group in London, defended the Marine, saying
soldiers are taught that the enemy “is at his most dangerous when he is
severely injured.”

I highly advise renting and watching "Red Dawn". Great action movie
and very close to home for us close to the southern border down here.

BTW, if you leave the good old USA, travel to another country and
start shooting USA soldiers, be prepared to be shot yourself as this
individual was. Or, to be captured and brought back to the USA for
a trial. Dont expect your peers on the jury to highly respect your
need to shoot USA soldiers.

Actually, I wish that we had dropped a fuel air bomb on Fallujah.
Dropped leaflets 24 hours in advance and then 24 hours later drop a
bomb. Then plant salt on the remains and erect a monument to our
dead in Manhatten and in Virginia. I cannot believe that our leaders
have sent our soldiers door to door, hunting these animals down. The
same with Mosul, surrender or "death from above".

Why ? They were in the middle of a battle ! The terrorist, excuse me,
insurgent, rolled over and made a move under his body. Watch the
movie, it is all over the internet. He was not a POW. Do you honestly
think that the marines have time to investigate the shootings of all of
the 1600+ insurgents that they killed in the last couple of weeks ?

Oh, absolutely, it works both ways. One man's freedom figher is another

and all that. We all behave as we deem necessary given the circumstances.

Tenuous connections between 9/11 and Iraq notwithstanding, this sort of
thing is not feasable. First off, there is no guarantee that the
(innocent) civilians could have made it out, it's possible that the
insurgents may have forcibly kept civilians as shields. Secondly, even
though it may seem like a locally strategically sensible solution, it does
not contribute to the greater purpose of making the world look favorably
on democracy if democracy behaves like that, even in wartime.

Hey it's your wording. Nowhere in anything I've read made reference to him
as a POW. Oh let me rephrase that, nothing I've read but your inflamitory
posts.

I've never served, however I understand the people who are serving are under

Maybe you should just STFU and stop trying on other people's shoes for
a change like a little girl playing dress up. There's a love. Because
anyone can put them on and check out how fetching they look in the
mirror but I don't see you getting off your ass and joining in the
march. So until you grow the balls to be a military man sit down and
behave like the little boy you are.

Your endless excuses for our military efforts are just as clueless as
"the other side" in their universal condemnation of the war. I've
known military men. I know what they personally stand for and what
they consider appropriate. Do you? I consider myself lucky to hear the
story from firsthand accounts rather than media blather. Do you?

I wasn't the one commenting on the situation with the Marine and the
insurgent. Nope, that'd be others like Phyloe, Andrew, Timmie, Larry,
etc... all of whom have either never seen combat or even been in the
service.

In fact if I haven't already stated it, I think the tribunal will find
whatever needs to be found and act appropriately, especially now that
they have the pressure on them to act from the media exposure. And
that's the benefit of a somewhat free press. It shines a light on the
dark recesses and keeps everyone honest, to the best it can when
government types aren't stifling it.

And it's sad indeed that possibly you and others would whine about
that. I guess you'd like to return to the gestapo like antics of the
Nazi and Soviet eras.

If so, that says a lot about you and who the real enemy of America is
today.

Not that I support Kerry in any manner, but let's take it from the top.
George W. Bush won the election, not because of his financial abilites, or
his leadership abilites.
He didn't win because of his military service record or his intelectual
abilities.
He won because of his appeal to the 'Moral Majority'
If gay marriage hadn't become such a hot topic in the last year the
election would have been even closer or just barely in Kerry's favour.
The fact the Kerry was both for and opposed to gay marriage, both for and
opposed to the was in Iraq, both for and opposed to the war on terrorism
is what really doomed him.

Yeah, I was commenting that we don't know everything. I was commenting
that you don't know if the guy who was shot was a POW or not. Unlike
you I am willing to wait to pass judgement. You just post inflamatory
remarks that indicate you *have* already passed judgement.

Same reason many people "think" Hussein was behind 9-11, and
that WMDs were found in Iraq - extreme ignorance and stupidity.
Also, voter disenfranchisement and electronic voting played a
role.

Seems like the "animals" are the foreign invaders who have, for
no valid reason, attacked a sovereign nation in violation of
international law, committed war crimes, torture, violated Geneva
Conventions, and committed numerous acts of terrorism against
innocent civilians.
The Iraqis are doing what early U.S. citizens did when the British
invaded. They're fighting for their freedom and independence from
oppressors who want to rule their country and control their lives.
Seems weird to condemn people for doing what most anyone would do.

part. Check the actual facts...only 11 states had a gay marriage issue on the
ballot, and a few of the states that killed the gay issue went for Kerry....The
Dems are just trying to save their face...Much like the idiotic argument that
Bush supporters are stupid compared to Kerry supporters...With arguments like
these they have a long time before they will ever see power again in this govt.
They just can't stand the results...Kerry lost states that Gore won...Kerry
lost by more votes in states that Gore lost by only a few. The tide has turned,
and the Liberals need to ditch the crazed maniacs like Moore and the Hollywood
elite and figure out what it will take to win. Arrogance loses.And right now
that's all they have.

Yes. Look, there are grey areas here of course, and there are black and

Still a great comfort where no one is pointing weapons at you.

I believe that if one is so ready to kill, that examining the reasons

I just think it stops people from responding as they normally would. I
think it puts the brakes on free thought. If anyone responds to you in a
manner you don't like, you put them in your sig, and every post you ever
make from then on has this attached.

I do notice you change your sig, and Tim seems to like it being quoted, but
I think it has the potential to hamper critical discourse on the group.

I haven't seen hide nor hair of Albert, I don't know if that is attributable
to you including him in your sig or not.

You of course will do what you like, and who can fault you for that. I just
think it is a bit discourteous.

Absolutely. I didn't mean to imply that I'm about to fly off the handle
and kill the nearest living thing, just that I can appreciate there are
situations in which I would have no qualms about doing so. Preserving my
life and the lives of those I love are obvious things. Protecting an
societal existence that is dear to me is not so personal, but still fairly
clear I believe. If somebody invades the US (for example) I'm not going
to go all bezerk and run naked and screaming to the fore, ax in hand, but
I'll be there, hopefully in a fairly stable state of mind. =)

When it comes down to it, who knows, but we're all armchair warriors, even
those of us in the military, until it comes down to the actual moment.
Many people who are there in Iraq now have never been under fire before,
basic training and live fire exercises be damned.

Respects and regards,
Justin

My dear Beardg, care to explain the following or is Jerry Falwell a
Democrat?
quoted in whole from Jerry Falwell website located at:
http://www.falwell.com/?a=p&content=1100618446

By Tony Perkins, Family Research Council

Although the identified born again evangelical population in America is
roughly 38% of the voting population, according to Barna Research they
represented 53% of voters in the November 2nd election when "values
voters" carried the day. However, the evangelicals identified with the
Republican Party were not the only "values voters." To the dismay of the
media and Hollywood that have derisively ascribed moral values to the
"religious right" of the GOP, they have found that those values of
honesty, integrity, along with policy issues like same-sex "marriage" and
abortion are shared by a much larger segment of the American family. The
Pew Research Center found that 27% of voters cast their ballots based upon
moral values. 44% of those voters did so based upon social policy such as
abortion and same-sex "marriage."

The New York Times highlighted the "values voter" in an interview with two
Puerto Rican women living in the Bronx who were staunch Democrats but
voted for Bush based on the moral issues. Jeanmarie Salazar, a mother of
four, cited her support for Bush based on the "immorality that is
destroying our country." It may very well be that the media's focus on
Iraq and terrorism in an effort to shake the confidence of the American
people in President Bush caused Americans to respond in a historically
predictable way to external crisis - an introspective look at who we are.
The result was in a politically polarized nation, an overwhelming block of
voters voted traditional American values.

And various other quotes from

http://falwell.com/?a=p&content=1077559813

Date: November 4, 2004
From: Jerry Falwell
"quote"
This mass evangelical turnout was also largely responsible for the passage
of all 11 marriage initiatives that passed by vast margins on Tuesday. It
is more apparent now than ever that the nation wants its leaders to define
marriage as a unique bond between one man and one woman. This is not
discrimination; it is simply mandating what civilization has held true for
many centuries. We must prevent activist judges in our federal courts from
redefining marriage so that it corresponds with ever-changing social
sentiment.

My good friend, Dr. D. James Kennedy, president of Coral Ridge Ministries,
responded to Tuesday’s election: “Despite the conventional political
wisdom that moral concerns are a drag on a political ticket, it was values
that energized voters, lifted turnout among evangelicals and Catholics,
and led to substantial GOP pickups in the House and Senate. The voters
have delivered a moral mandate.”

We should all feel a sense of accomplishment and thankfulness to God for
blessing our efforts. We must never forget that people of faith in this
country, joined by political and fiscal conservatives, successfully
withstood Hollywood, Springsteen, Affleck, Baldwin, the Dixie Chicks (now
called the French Hens by some), billionaire George Soros and his ilk, all
the 527s, most of the national print and broadcast media, the gays and
lesbians, the abortionists, the entire liberal establishment... and about
$2 billion of hate-inspired media and campaign expenditures.

"end quote"

Oh, and check out:
http://www.faithandvalues.us/article2.php
for even more.

So either Jerry Falwell is lying or he and his ministries and the so
called 'Moral majority' are taking credit for something they don't deserve.

Arrogance loses.

Is that the same arrogance that considers a paltry 3,510,358 vote
difference as a substantial majority.
oops, sorry I meant 3,109,652 vote difference after removing naders votes.
After all I think it's safe to say that
Nader voters wouldn't have voted for Bush. That difference represents
about 1.05% of the U.S. population.
20.1% of the U.S. population voted for Bush and 18.9% voted for Kerry, so
the fate of your country was really decided by a whopping 39% of the
population

And right

Gosh, I can't believe you're so stupid as to get your information from
partisan sites with axes to grind. And I wasn't aware that an
anonymous post from "a Fallujah marine" either constituted proper news

Beardg> The public cannot make an intelligent decision when confronted with
what happens in a war zone. In WW2 the troops routinely would kill the enemy
rather than take a chance with him...Do a little research on the taking of the
islands from the Japanese in WW2....If the public had been bombarded every
night, in vivid color, the horrors of burning trapped soilders out of caves,
then shooting them as they ran,in flames, from their holes, the American forces
would not have been allowed to fight and win without substantially more losses
than were already inflicted. It takes serious training to get soilders to
handle a war zone, what makes you think Suzy Homemaker can understand and make
the proper decision when bombarded with those images, with no training or even
understanding of what is really happening.
War cannot be fought by pussies sitting in front of their TVs deciding
what is right and wrong.
If a war is to be fought, death is part of the equation, as victory is the
ONLY allowable result, no matter what it takes, victory is the only answer, not
the human "rights" of an enemy as you decide whether he may blow you up....Why
ask? Taking a chance with not only your life, but your buddies also... kill
first, move on. That is the only correct answer for a Marine as he moves
through hostile territory. War is Hell, but wars must be fought, all wars are
Hell, and cannot be changed or altered.....Thank GOD we have people in power
who understand this, I shutter to think of what the Kerry administration would
do to our troops in harms way.....
And to be honest if this was WW2, we would have firebombed the entire city,
and then sent the troops in, and no one would have blinked an eye..many
innocents would have been killed, but ALL the enemy would have been killed, and
we would have saved many American Marines lives...I personally do not like
trading Marines so we can look good to the world and save a city. But I guess
the military and the BUSH admin. is trying to be as "gentle" as they can be to
the people of Iraq. But remember they are trading Marines for this favor....

Kerry may be a lousy candidate, but remeber that under Bush congress has
had to vote three times to allow the federal debt to increase.

How did Clinton lose the houses? He couldn't stick around for a third term.
And who's going to vote for Gore?

Clinton was the first 'real man' type president that America had in a long
time. George W. Bush is the second.
By 'real man' I'm implying that if it wasn't for their position in
government and presidency, these two are people that could easily blend in
with the rest of us.
I could easily see either Clinton or Bush having regular 40 hour a day
jobs, going for a beer on Friday night and going out for a ride on the
weekends.
Gore and Kerry are both the 'office manger' type. I could see them working
in an office as a senior manager.
So until the Democrats get another 'real man' type guy to run for
president I don't see them as having any chance of re-election. Unless of
course the Republicans nominate a 'office manager' themselves.

Actually it's got nothing to do with me liking what they

idiotic like denying that innocent people were tortured and
murdered in bu$h's Iraqi prisons. And it's only three people -
the two Timmies, and Albert.

I think you're making too much of it. If someone says something

wrong with accurately quoting their idiocy.

Look, by suggesting that an investigation need happen and that things must

I'm saying is that we need to make sure that our armed forces are somehow

Some would say that by questioning, you automatically undermine what

What part about non-combatents getting out of Fallujah didn't you

How do non-combatants get out of Fallujah when the US military
prevented all those from 15 to 65 from leaving?

The justification being of course that if they did, the mission
wouldn't have suceeded. Which is really doublespeak for "we're looking

I'd rather hail from the culture that invented western european

BTW, if I'm the one with the oddball sexual fetish how come you

talk about is how close you were with your pooch and it kinda gives me
the heebies jeebies thinking about it.

Trust me. You want yourself a nice gal. You'd be a lot less angry if
somebody actually loved you. And despite the lengths you'd have to go
to, there IS somebody out there for you.

Good luck with that. And happy motorcycling!
