I’m not frustrated by their stupidity. I’m spitting mad at them and hope they are strung up to the fullest extent of the law.
As I said earlier, this is beyond stupidity. This is the type of conduct that, rightly or wrongly, fairly or not, causes incredible political problems for our nation’s leaders and our military leaders. This reprehensible misconduct can jeopardize the entire war effort.
Yes, they are always a few bad apples. But they need to be crushed. And this type of incident must be addressed strongly and forthrightly in every training session that soldiers are given about conduct on the battlefield. And this training needs to include that anyone who engages in this type of behavior will be severely shamed and punished.
My only issue is that the media won’t try to taint Obama with this, like Abu Gharib and President Bush.
Sure glad I opted for that Article 15 back in '76.
