Murtha has a long history of ethical problems.
Looks like this was written solely for readers fully familiar with the allegations and details of a “shadow conspiracy.” As is stands now, the piece makes little, if any, sense.
I have no problem with conspiracy theories (and in fact give most good ones their due) but in the case of Winter, I have to take the Arcum’s Razor approach - - I think Winter is simply the cowardly, incompetent political hack he appears to be.
Rudder: Yes, this was written for those of us who have been following the Haditha fiasco for the past two years. Try Googling “Justin Sharratt” and “Haditha Marines”. It is an amazing (if disrgaceful) story about a squad of heroic Marines who engaged in battle against insurgents following an IED blast that killed one Marine and seriously injured two others. A naive, overzealous reporter for TIME Magazine was subsequently duped by a couple of insurgent propagandists and the Pentagon and the Bush Administration then caved to liberal pressure and thought they could make the controversy go away if they simply threw a few Marines under the bus. Those cowards were very wrong.
Darryl Sharratt: Excellent post. Thanks for your thoughts.

1. Murtha made obscene and treasonous PUBLIC charges against the Marines currently charged. To date, charges have been dropped against 4 of the 7 Marines.
2. Murtha can make or break a Military Contractor from his position on the House Subcommittee on Defense Appropriations.
3. Murtha is STRONGLY motivated to see at least some Marines charged with violating the ROE and going on a “wild, cold blooded killing spree”.
4. Current Sec. of the Navy has had STRONG ties to several corporations who rely upon HEAVY military spending — initiated from Murtha’s Subcommittee...
5. Current Sec. of the Navy will very likely return to the Corporate world when the “new administration” comes in in 2009.
6. It would seem this Sec. of the Navy is subject to excessive pressure to ensure there is at lease SOMEONE hung out to dry to help get Murtha off the hook.....and “earn” his “gratitude”..
7. The poster is concerned that “political/financial issues” may color the integrity of the persecution..... And, I meant persecution..... The private and military defense attorneys have been kicking the persecution's ass all over the courtroom — BUT - the persecution only need to “hang” one Marine to provide cover for Murtha’s treasonous remarks against them....
Murtha needs to be charged, sued or simply flushed — which is appropriate for the turd that he has become..
Thanks. But your reply said nothing about the ‘shadow conspiracy.’ If I have to google your link to follow an article, then the article itself is not sufficiently informative. My critique is not about the Haditha story, but about the deficiencies of this piece-—which stand, despite your defensiveness.
I agree with everything in your post except to note that your reply, like this article, does not explain ‘shadow conspiracy.’ I haven’t read all the articles about Haditha, but I have been following this since the beginning. Then a new wrinkle appeared: the ‘shadow conspiracy,’ and I have not seen an article that explains this ‘shadow conspiracy’ adequately.
And those steps are?
(This omission is what prompted my criticism.)
I have thought that for some time now, RR. It is so true.
Also, the liberals benefit if they can extend their defeat on Haditha until AFTER this next election. I believe that undue command influence groups will see that this is put on a back burner until the election, and that after the election it will be settled quickly before the next administration takes over.....
(Unless it's a Hillary victory, in which case she will declare martial law, form a dictatorship, and throw all her opponents in jail. /sarcasm)
SOS Bump !
He should have been fragged a long time ago.
The world is an interesting place, don’t you think? People on the outside,like me, use the word “conspiracy”. While people on the inside simply use the word “plan”.
Thanks for the insight on “Legal Team Charlie” last night Girl.
A loyal American who would carry a grudge against the kind of turds who would prosecute our Marines without cause -- except for the money involved...
Wouldn't it be terrific if ALL the scum involved in this fraudulent prosecution ended up destroyed financially, publicly, socially and personally as they deserve and the public honor of the persecuted Marines is totally reinstated. (Their genuine, personal honor is intrinsic and cannot be taken from them by poseurs and traitors.)
Is it a mere coincidence that a day after the Thomas Moore Society mentions the existence of a “shadow regime” the charges against LCpl Stephen Tatum are dismissed?
I too am awaiting more disclosure from the attorneys of LtCol Chesanni!
God Bless Our Haditha Marines

Then instead of Google all you have to do is peruse Free Republic. Over the past few days several threads discussed Rumsfeld's "shadow" prosecution of the Haditha Marines. Here's one that was pretty active:
New Revelations in Haditha Case - SecDef Rumsfeld Set up Body to Oversee
The thing is, not every thread can have an introductory tutorial for people unfamiliar with a particular subject. In the case of this thread the poster, the father of one of the Marines, can offer insight unavailable elsewhere.
