An official says the U.S. Marine Corps has identified at least two of the four marines in an internet video that purports to depict them urinating on Taliban corpses in Afghanistan.

So what? My response to the Marine Corp. would be....Nick Berg. Daniel Pearl.

And they're worried about some pee on a corpse?

The official spoke on condition of anonymity because a criminal investigation is underway.

The military sure isn't what it once was. Now it's nothing but a bunch of bigmouth fags. Sad.

This admin will go after these Marines will a full on assault. I hope they are out of Military. Piss on this bunch in charge. It is war, not pretty. The ones they pissed on would have done way worse to the Marines had they been dead and this admin wouldn’t have said or done as much for them.

The Marines take young men and train them to kill our enemies.
Then our blue half gets the vapors when they find they aren’t choir boys.
Here’s to those who wish our Marines well;
All the rest can go to Hell!

My 87yr old WWII paratrooper dad just told me that
one of his trooper pals told the captain he was going
to cut a finger off a dead Japanese soldier. The
captain said “Get me one too”.

Pop said ears, toes, and teeth were also popular.

But, on the other hand, my dad and his pals also
recovered dead Americans who had strips of flesh
sliced from their bodies which were consumed by
hungry Japanese. Isn’t war hell?

I expect that a number of Marines directly involved will be disciplined for this - and I have no opinion on that, not having served in the Marine Corps. But I would say that the civilian leadership of the DoD needs to take some hits too. Isn't it Leon Panetta's responsibility for controlling the presence of digital video equipment in combat zones? Wasn't Abu Ghraib about 6 years ago? Is there no responsibility for this at the highest levels?

Everyone knows that young people have a totally malformed sense of privacy and propriety when it comes to the internet. Everyone knows that the military is made up of disproportionately, young people. Which is exactly why it is the responsibility of the senior military and civilian leadership to create some effective policy limiting or controlling recording devices in combat zones.

Who will call for Panetta's resignation?

Let me see if I have this straight.

During war it is okay to shot and kill an enemy combatant.

But you can never ever piss on their dead bodies ?

There is something wrong with that mentality.

The dead seem to have more rights then the living.

Curious...

Who in hell would take a video of such an event and then post it on the internet? Is this all a faked thing? Are US Marines carrying around video devices when in battle?

The act itself is fine. The raw stupidity of allowing yourself to be filmed doing it....is a travesty.

One has to wonder what the incredible "films" would have shown coming from ....oh.....say....Guadalcanal, Okinawa, Brest, Manheim, and many many more.

Rules: 1) get the civilians away from the military.
2. any representative who votes in favor of war, shall be given the rank of E-1, issued a rifle, and immediately emplaced in a rifle platoon that is in the vanguard of the attack (or defense as the case may be). This will be so regardless of the rep's age, sex, or marital status.
3. No device capable of taking still or moving pics will be allowed on the person of anyone engaged, or who might become engaged, in close combat - this includes civilians. Anyone caught with such a device will have it confiscated and destroyed; if a civilian, see rule two above.

These three rules should fix a great deal of the current problems.

While I don’t really care the enemy dead, our troops have to be cognizant that ANYTHING they do may become a newstory, even years later, and it may be released by the very same guys who they served with.

They have to be careful with people, even their own, filming them.

I can see the new DOD policy though.

Openly gay troops will be authorized necrophilial relations will dead enemy combatants to assuage the damaged insensibilities of the enemy forces.
