from BlackSpeakers.net:
With a first hand look into the war in Iraq , Marine Lance Cpl. Abdul Henderson, has been actively speaking out against the war. He testified on Capitol Hill on a congressional panel in 2003. He was featured in Michael Moore's movie Fahrenheit 9/11 stating that he would not return to Iraq if his reserve unit was called back to duty. Mr. Henderson has also been featured on radio shows Democracy Now and the Joe Madison Show . In addition, he has appeared on the morning show Good Morning America and was given the political play of the week on CNN's show Inside Politics .
Armed with documents citing outstanding performance and several service medals during his five years as a reservist, the soft-spoken Henderson describes himself as an American Patriot who speaks from the heart.
Mr. Abdul Henderson is standing up for what he believes in, he has a definitive message why everyone should participate in the democratic process. His speech on why Americans should vote has left audiences stunned, invigorated, and ready to take action. With the presidential election around the corner Mr. Henderson's message is a must hear and should not be taken lightly
I wonder if he is going to wear his uniform.

Are you sure you've got your timing right?
Looks like they are expecting at least 10 people to the rally.
Anyone who associates with Moore and spews his idiotic talking points deserve whatever punishment the Marines can dish out.
here is a source link for this

If he's still in the service, isn't this insubordination? Is he Moslem?
With a name like Abdul why am I not surprised?
.308 works wonders on islamo fascist thinking.
What kinds of punishment does the UCMJ have available for this POS?
If this is true, then I should think his commander should order him not to participate.
It's one thing to participate in political matters out of uniform, but it can't be done in uniform, and I should think it would also be improper to do it specifically identifying yourself as a marine. Because that's the whole point, that a marine is a peacenik.
Abdul is likely a Muslim name.
No problem. Send him a bill.
Time for Henderson to assist in some target practice.
Court martial him ....
Is Fort Leavenworth on his speaking tour?

He'll be the dems candidate in 20 yrs
Court martial bringing discredit on the uniform
All depends on what the military wants to charge him with.

John Kerry wannabe of the 21st century.
Funny how those who appeared in Michael Moore's film without consent and disputed their appearance by talking to the filmmakers of FahrenHYPE 911 are ignored by the Left.
Sgt. Akbar, the American who murdered 2 officers and injured another 14 in Kuwait in 2003, is the REAL US military hero to these traitors.
Let's see for openers Violation of RT. 104. of the UCMJ Aiding and Abetting the Enemy.
Then of course there could be ART. 116. RIOT OR BREACH OF PEACE or ART. 117. PROVOKING SPEECHES OR GESTURES. Then depending on what happens there could be ART. 128. ASSAULT or the ever present ART. 134. GENERAL ARTICLE
Sweet huh?

Semper Spy! What a disgrace to the proud Marine Corps.
What ticks me off is that somebody like this puke or Ritter gets to wear the uniform of the Corps, and I'm probably to old to even get back in the Air Force, much less the Marine Corps.
If he shows up in uniform, Article 88? Anyhow, if he is still active duty, he belongs in Leavenworth.

The sight picture help-out is funny for Americans that are used to a different sight picture, but accurate for chi-com/soviet era weapons.
Lots of AC units in the apartments in the background... and I don't have a problem with that... The rule is 'KNOW your backstop.... you don't actually have to care who gets hurt (unless you are a human)

Yes indeed, and as it was explained to me when I was in, if I identified myself as an Air Force member and did so while endorsing a specific political group or position, it was the same as if I were wearing the uniform. So he can show up in jeans and a T-Shirt or a clown suit, and he's still violating the law. In addition, even if he were to somehow keep politics and/or the validity of the Iraq war out of it, just getting up and saying, "I'm a U.S. Marine, and I'm refusing to fight if ordered" would be a big fat volation, maybe even a count of sedition.
Let me think....what's the punishment for desertion again?

Mr. SKELTON. Mr. Speaker, I yield 1 1/2 minutes to the gentlewoman from California (Ms. Watson).
Ms. WATSON. Mr. Speaker, Abdul Henderson was called up as a Marine Reserve to go to Iraq. I am hoping and praying that he was not aboard that helicopter. As soon as I leave these Chambers, I will make a call out to Los Angeles.
He is the son of one of my employees. We saw him off. I support and I honor our troops for they are following commands, and I think the most honorable thing we can do is take them out of harm's way.

This coffee shop would normally fit 12 - but with MMoore, we're back to ten - or less.
Isn't it Article 88 if he doesn't go as ordered? Also Article 92, Failure to Follow a Lawful Order or Directive. I could be wrong...been out a long time.
get serious..real marines are not and will not be allowed to be called abdul..that name can only be used in the usa if you work as a wwf pigeon for real heros like the hulkster....abdul the wrestler...ok...abdul the marine...not on my watch...bcboy

His wishes should be accomodated. Nobody wants a coward at their back in a fight. Send him to Guam. Or let him go be a prison guard at Gitmo.
ABDUL Henderson. the name tells you all you need to know. Treachery is in his blood.
Our local peace-niks don't have $10,000. Where do you suppose the money is coming from? Their pre-made signs are probably from A.N.S.W.E.R., The World Workers Party. I smell commies.
The guy in the picture isn't a Lance Coolie, he's a corporal. Did he get busted? Secondly, he hasn't been ordered to Iraq, has he? Whats the point.
you go to jail for turning your back on your country, not hell.
Moore's production company could donate the fee to the group (those things seem to always be 501(c)(3) charities), take the deduction, and get a bit of advertising out of the deal. Include some DVD sales or a movie showing and it could work as a profit center for Moore.
Onward Moose Limb soldiers. We'd better filter these ghouls out of the service.
Abdul Henderson
I hope he is ordered to Iraq, refuses to do so, he is arrested, tried, convicted, and SHOT!
I am a USMC combat veteran 1969-1981
He is NOT allowed to wear the uniform of a Marine to ANY political rally/meeting where there could be an implied consent of the USMC.
I am positive the USMC does NOT consent/approve of that piggie girlie boy moore.
