Just got through watching FOX.

Obvioulsy a black Muslim...whether American born or a West African born immigrant I couldn't say.

He is with an engineering attachment with the 101st.

Of the wounded several looked very serious. One has died sadly. Several others seriously wounded.

The perp was striking out at brigade leaders.

One of the wounded was a woman (so much for no women in combat eh?)

He appeared to be striking out in some misguided interpretation of his religious convictions.

ALL THAT ACCORDING TO A TIME REPORTER ON THE SCENE WHO WAS IN THE TENT WITH THE WOMAN WHO WAS INJURED BY FRAGMENTS>

Having these loons in our combat units is idiocy...PC run amok as usual as costing lives sadly.

How about murder? Treason...

These poor soldiers - they crap they endure to fight for us - and now they have to suffer this. Morale was so high. Please God give them strength to come through this.

John Allen Williams aka John Mohammad, aka the DC sniper did something similiar in DS 1.

Here is the link to the thread about Williams/Mohammad throwing a thermite thread into a tent filled with soldiers in Desert Storm: "...[John Muhammad] Williams’s unit was sent to Operation Desert Storm to clear mines and bulldoze holes in enemy lines. A few nights before the invasion of Iraq, Sergeant Berentson awoke in the early hours to find his tent, with 16 sleeping men inside, on fire. Someone had tossed in a thermite grenade. Berentson, who was fed up with Williams’s insubordination, immediately suspected Williams and told the Army’s Criminal Investigative Division. Berentson says he last saw Williams being led away in handcuffs. Williams’s military records make no mention of the incident; indeed, they suggest Williams had a distinguished gulf-war stint. But Berentson always kept Williams’s name and dog-tag number in his wallet. He says he was not surprised to see Williams’s face on television..."

He will be tried at a Drumhead Courtsmartial, found guilty, and shot all without them telling us his name.

The muslim angle is being spun into a disgruntled soldier stressed out by combat

He was not acting alone..orignally this story had Iraqi compatriots...grenades thrown into three tents housing the TOC personnel as well as executive officers at both brigade and battalion levels and key admin personnel

The disgruntled soldier spin was debunked by both imbedded press who were on the scence regardless of how many other operatives on fox are pushing to the contrary...

These tents were deliberately targeted..by the suspect and his compatriots...who where not US Army but Iraqis hired on as interpretors..

If this troop was disgruntled or upset with one his commanders...as an NCO and an engineer the people he attacked were strangers to him and he doesnt fall under their command and would have had no contact with them in the course of his work..

The real issue imo is what are the Wahabbi imman chaplins telling these guys...or directing them off post to mosques and islamic centers who are pushing them into jihaad and fatwas...
It is possible that al-Qaeda (known to be in US prisons recruiting) could also have sleepers in place in the Army to be awakend during the seige of Baghdad..

They could do some serious damage to C&C if not ferreted out ASAP

imo...all muslims and immans (chaplins) should be put on the next bus home...

PC and Diversity are not the altars we should be sacrificing our kids on...or allow them to be betrayed from within

I think I would handcuff him, gag him, and send him out toward enemy lines with "Allah sucks" painted on his chest.

[ladyinred]

I am fuming over this one.

The truth is starting to come out. Eh?

[vger]

Terror Alert Should be raised to Severe!

Islamonazi Terrorists are in the U.S. Military and they are ARMED and DANGEROUS!

God Bless and Protect our Troops and their families.

[navydad]

This could get real messy - just wait until Jesse JackAss inserts himself into the situation...

[Jhoffa_]

Disregarding this Muslim fruitloop for a moment..

Why do we have only a 1/3 success rate with our hand grenades?

He lobbed three and only TWO went off? What the hell is up with this high rate of failure?
