accuse by whom, Congress?
But if there is, I will just say that when Abu Ghraib became news, the media pretty much thought that it was a complete indictment of George W. Bush. Any mistreatment of prisoners MUST have been the fault of the guy in the Oval Office. Now, (perhaps), we have civilians killed for sport. Well -- what did Obama know, and when did he know it?
I’m starting to get the impression that a bunch of liberal commie dickweeds are now running our military. Hey America! How’s that hope and change workin’ for ya?
Is this another Haditha non-massacre?
As though AQ has never engaged in recreational bombing.
In any case, I hope these charges are bogus but if true I have no doubt the military will properly police their own ranks.
Other way around.
Horse Sh**!
It sounds like there were a number of personnel involved.
And they did it without the knowledge of any sergeants or officers?
Or the sergeants and officers were in on the plan?
And nobody blew the whistle before, during or after the event? And they repeated an attack?
I call baloney. This whole thing presents a very low view of the integrity of the forces and its command structure. Too low.
It’s BS stories like this that fuel and help the enemy with recruiting and it also makes some Americans second guess their support for our troops. Let’s put these reporters in Afghanistan with a 100 pound pack on their back in 110 degree heat dodging snipers and IED’s and see if they still want to write stories like this one.
He claimed he wore a child's skull under his helmet and used “highly illegal square backed bullets (SIC)” in his issued glock. When the liberal groups used the articles as proof of war crimes, the Army tracked him down and proved his claims false. The investigators stated in the report that Beauchamp was highly delusional and saw himself as a modern day Hemmingway.
Another fine example is Jesse MacBeth. MacBeth was the toast of the Communist Antiwar crowd. He claimed to be a decorated Spec Ops member and claimed he and his fellows would break into homes and torment civilians. MacBeth described questioning locals "and if we didn't like the answer, we'd kill their youngest child." The truth is MacBeth washed out of Basic training and eventually served a prison sentence for filing fraudulent claims for VA benefits.
Just because someone claims war crimes were committed doesn't mean they happened. Of course, any reasonable patriot already knows this. Do you, Willie?
Liberal media military dream story ...just in time for the elections...and as with Vietnam...they try to use these stories to justify the adminitrastion’s dereliction of their military responsibility.
Its the same old tiresome liberal game.
