Alaska Darin Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Now we're shooting unarmed, injured enemy combatants? I can't WAIT to hear Bush's lawyers turn this one into a perfectly acceptable act according to their 'interpretation' of the articles of the Geneva Convention. I saw the video ... both versions. Sickening. Apparently even the right-wing, hawk whacko's who make up most of the regulars in PPP (and provide at least one 'moderator' as well) aren't too thrilled about it either. Or, at least, they seem silent on the matter. But I must comment. Yes, you all know I hate this war already. But THIS takes it to a new low. The silence from the hawks in here is deafening ... that's why I'm posting this. When I post ... on ANYTHING, at ANY TIME ... I know I can count on an Alaska Dimwit or a DiCkless Tom response in seconds. Bring it, boys ... 120236[/snapback] Spoken just like a pansy-assed liberal ideologist. Tell us again how much you support the troops when the only time your ass is on the line is when you're waiting at the fuggin' drive through. People like you are the reason we lose so many troops. Your kind has made our ROE virtually the same size as "War and Peace", so instead of killing all the enemy in a professional military manner, we lose good men to terrorist tactics like some dying Ass hole sitting on an HE grenade and rolling just enough to kill everyone in the blast radius. You are such a P.O.S. Keep pretending you know WTF you are talking about. You also saw Farenheit 9/11 and bit it like a chinook on a treble hook. Brilliant guy, you are. Buying the same silliness yet again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paco Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Holy mother of God, I can't believe you are pissing and moaning about this. What kind of fuggin' world do you think we live in? You think now is the time to be some bleeding heart kitty? Christ, Petrino, I knew you were something of a liberal, but bitching about something like this is so incredibly pussified I'm at a loss for words. I'm sure Nick Berg and Hassan would prefer we take a more liberal approach to these scumbags. You're lost, Petrino. Completely lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GG Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Nice hit an run, as always. Care to come back and discuss the facts of the case and what lead to the action? Didn't think so. Moron. Full story if you have the guts to read it. Nice to spout from your venom infested mind and missing important elements of the cause of action and how they may play in the theater of war. Sites reported that a Marine in the same unit had been killed a day earlier when he tended to the booby-trapped dead body of an insurgent. NBC reported that the Marine seen shooting the wounded combatant had himself been shot in the face the day before, but quickly returned to duty. Maybe instead of these posts, you could do society a favor and invent a device that will tell the Marines in combat whether a bad guy is really dead or is playing chicken. The Marine deserves a friggin medal, not condescention from a smug &*&*&%. :I starred in Brokeback Mountain: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is accurate, it certainly changes the dynamics of the situation. A prisoner and a combatant are two different things, and that seems to be what they're investigating. I also read they are investigating why five wounded prisoners were left without medical care and/or supervision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was another unit of Marines that had cared for these 5 injured prior to the second unit coming in. The second unit apparently did not know the first unit had gone through and left wounded inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's happened in all wars by all combattants (including American soldiers) in history. Judging this war and this administration by this single action that, in war, is commonplace, is ludicrously KzooMike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MichFan Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Hey libs -- just think about it. Our guys have swept Fallujah for over a week now and the worst you can find to criticize them is a soldier finishing off a guy who was probably as good as gone anyway. You are forgetting your freaking talking points!!! You don't care about armed combatants -- it's only when they drop their weapons and enter military prisons that you care about them. Keep your eyes on the big picture, libs. Think of all the innocent civilians that must have been killed during this battle. Now run off to your media sources, get back on-topic, and then come back and report to us the truly disgraceful numbers (from a liberal perspective).

Pine Barrens Mafia Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I say good for him. The only trustworthy arab terrorist is a DEAD arab terrorist. I applaud that soldier, I'd have done the same thing without remorse or regret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thailog80 Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 The libs arent around to discuss this right now. They are too busy huddled up concocting stories of voter intimidation and fraud. Havent you heard? Oh yeah...check out Moveon and some other sites. Seems, like in 2000, there was mass intimidation of voters at the polls, roadblocks in minority neighborhoods, cops telling people on line to disperse, on and on. Of course, there is not a single picture or video or other proof of all this, and of course, it took place by their account only in poor minority and immigrant neighborhoods, but what the hey.................... 120646[/snapback] They're having a hell of a time trying to get the Kerry/Edwards stickers off their cars.

BillsGuyInMalta Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 I just checked out the video and honestly, I think the marine did what he had to do. I mean, it looks like they were checking the entire interior (I dont care that its a mosque...if a crazy person was shooting people from a church, would anyone have a problem storming the church to stop him?) and when they found someone alive, the marine acted swiftly to make sure the guy didnt pull out a firearm or explosive device. This is war people, and one more bad guy is dead. Nothing wrong with it in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicot Posted November 16, 2004 Share Posted November 16, 2004 Supposedly that's one of the things they have been doing - acting dead or wounded until Marines are close enough that they can do some damage. Haven't seen the video. Sounds pretty bad, though. Where are all the stories about how bad things were for the 8 months that the 'insurgents' (insurgents from Syria, that is) were in command of Fallujah? No one cares about that? It's only about 1000x worse than this one incident. There are no more rules for these terrorists - and I doubt I'd take any chances with them either. 120289[/snapback] Don't be absurd. The vast majority of those fighting in Fallujah are Iraqi. The US have taken about a thousand prisoners and ,of those, only about two dozen are foreign.
