Remember, Zarkman had Iraqi army uniforms.

Well, I'm sure we'll hear more of "Nadia's Theme" in the MSM very soon.

I am sorry about her son, though. He was a fine American. God rest him.

On NPR this morning a Marine LT, who was training an Iraqi unit in '04, explained how a jihadi had infiltrated his unit in order to assassinate him.

In no uncertain terms he said the reason he is alive now is because soldiers loyal to him found out the plot and foiled it.

The good news was that his efforts had garnered such respect and loyalty from the unit. The bad news was that other elements in the unit allowed the infiltration.

It is a Da** good thing these reporters did not exist during WWII or we would all be speaking either German or Japanese!! Someone seems to have forgotten to tell these people that bad things happen in war!

Soldiers who witnessed the attack have told her that two Iraqi patrolmen opened fire on her son's unit. The witnesses also said a third gunman simultaneously drove up to the American unit in a van, climbed onto the vehicle and fired at the Americans, she said.

There is a profound difference between Iraqi patrolmen and terrorists dressed in Iraqi uniforms, although both are possible.
It is common knowledge that terrorists have signed up and been trained as "militiamen".
What I don't understand is why does someone who "sees" anyone fire at US soldiers not kill them on the spot? This is all vry confusing.

Another Iraqi kidnaps 40 workers while another blows up 40-60 people aiming at the soldiers while another murders Hussein's attorney yet the system goes apesh*t over one dead Iraqi and charges 6 marines and 1 sailor. Something is indeed wrong with this picture!

Nadia McCaffrey has become a vocal critic of the war in Iraq, and said her son had reservations about it, too, though he served well and was promoted posthumously to sergeant.

They just had to throw that convenient bit in, didn't they...

Amazing how she supposedly knows her son's thoughts now that he is dead. Sounds like another Sheehan wanna-be.
