Marine accused of wrongful shooting needs our help...
16 nov 04 | Atlanta

Posted on 11/16/2004 4:34:34 AM PST by Atlanta

I'm going to start with a communication of support of this young Marine, to the Commandant of the Marine Corps himself. Then, President Bush and my Senator/Congressman.They are going to hear from me and I have all friggin day to do it. I am so livid about this that words cannot describe. As a former Marine myself, this young "Leather" was doing what he was trained to do, adapting to unreasonable circumstances (enemy tricks) and he did exactly what I would have done and what has always been done with a fanatical enemy. If authorities hang this Marine out to dry, I will never stop raising hell and will become a point man for pulling these guys out of theater entirely...MSM is SICK. Other suggestions?

I am with you and there's many others around here too.
We must defend our military from those in the 5th column that are trying to destroy it.

"I agree, but it needs to go to the top. President Bush can end this jihad against our military by the MSM."

There you go.

W. needs to use his freshly earned clout and nip this $hit in the bud.

I called them and just spoke with a POS Valley Girl. God Help me, everybody at NBC should get a reality check. Maybe one day the "insurgents" they think so much of will show them exactly what we're up against. And then they can shove their moral equivalency Sh*t up their blown out a$$es.

I agree.

W should defend the troops come what may from the MSM.

What is GE's problem? GE is a Benedict Arnold Corporation. Why do they have such dangerous liberals providing the nation with the "news" ?

I called the NBC DC office and was hung up on four times before the girl that answered got it through her head that I was not going away. I was then passed on to a manager.

Fallujah innocent civilians have had three months to make alternative living arrangements.

[The media should include a picture of the disembowelled and limbless body of a blonde woman, possibly Pole Teresa Borcz, who was married to an Iraqi and abducted two weeks ago, that was found in fallujah.]

Hassan Charity Waits for News on Fallujah Body
http://news.scotsman.com/latest.cfm?id=3759565

By David Stringer, PA

Colleagues of kidnapped British aid worker Margaret Hassan said they cannot yet rule out the possibility that a mutilated body of a Western woman found in Fallujah is the captured humanitarian.

US Marines discovered the corpse yesterday as they scoured the battle-scarred town for militants.

Mrs Hassan, 59, director of CARE international in Iraq, was abducted on October 19 and is one of only two Western women being held hostage.

The other, Teresa Borcz Khalifa, 54, a Polish-born resident of Iraq, was seized last month.

Reports claim that the body of the woman had blonde hair, unlike brunette Mrs Hassan.

But CARE international said today that it is waiting for conclusive details from Iraqi authorities about the discovery.

Spokeswoman Jessica Walker said: “We haven’t heard anything as yet and are still trying to establish the facts.

“This is a very sensitive issue and we haven’t heard any more about Margaret’s status since the release of a video recording earlier this month.”

After the recorded message was broadcast, the charity called for the immediate release of Mrs Hassan, who was lived and worked in Iraq for around 30 years.

A Foreign Office spokesman said it has yet to confirm the reports that a body has been discovered.

He said: “We take all of these reports seriously and are urgently looking into ascertaining the facts.”

CIA operative killed in Afghan prison riot
Associated Press
Posted on 11/29/2001

WASHINGTON - Rioting prisoners killed CIA officer Johnny "Mike" Spann at Mazar-e-Sharif in northern Afghanistan, the agency said Wednesday. He was the first American killed in action inside the country since U.S. bombing began seven weeks earlier.

Officials recovered his body from a prison compound only after northern alliance rebels backed by U.S. airstrikes and special forces quelled an uprising by Taliban and al-Qaida prisoners.

Spann, 32, leaves a wife, two daughters and an infant son.

11 fatalities – mostly children
6 heavy casualties
7 moderate and 30 lightly injured

At 07:14 hours in the morning buses are usually full of school children,
today, too many of them surrendered their life to terror.

A total of 535 blood units and blood components were dispatched to four hospitals.

41 lifesaving vehicles ( 31 standard ambulances, 9 MICUs and 1 MCRV) rushed to the rescue of those Jerusalem citizens who are victimized at every terror opportunity.


LET'S REVISIT BESLAN FOR A MOMENT

LET'S REVISIT BESLAN FOR A MOMENT

Please ... tell me you remember Beslan. It was in Beslan just about a month ago that some Islamic terrorists took hundreds of children and adults hostage in a school. These brave warriors of Islam rigged the school with explosives. You remember how it ended, don't you? As school children tried to escape after the explosions began these mighty followers of Mohammed started shooting them in the back. Shooting children in the back!

Why bring this up again? Hell ... it ought to be brought up every single hour of every single day right up the close of the polls on November 2nd. These are the people George Bush wants to track down and destroy, along with the governments and enable and harbor them ..... and these are the people that John Kerry wants to track down with international cops, and those he can't convict at trial he wants to reduce to a mere nuisance level.

Today Bill Gertz is reporting in the Washington Times that US security officials are investigating an intelligence report that a group of 25 Chechen terrorists illegally entered the United States from Mexico in July. The group is suspected of having links to Islamic terrorists -- including al Qaeda. The group is also said to be wearing backpacks. Reports are that these Islamists traveled to northern Mexico and crossed over the border in a part of Arizona that is difficult to patrol.

Well now, isn't that special! Did we really have 25 Islamic terrorists sneak into the United States illegally with backpacks. And what do you suppose they want? Why would they be coming here? Jobs? Do you think they're going to be hanging sheetrock in Sheboygan? Laying brick in Bristol? I doubt that those were construction tools in those backpacks.

If, in fact, we have Chechnyan Islamists entering the United States through Mexico their intent is clear, they're here to kill. They're here to murder innocent Americans. Maybe they're here to kill your child. They have experience in that field you know.

What a nuisance.

"Agreed...and let's not forget the fact that this "reporter" (hate to use the word) was provided safety and cover by the very same brave men he is "reporting" against...makes me wonder if he is still with the same unit. I'm guessing he's not very popular with them right now. It sickens me..."

I did not forget him. . .considered the same in one of my posts. . .and for sure; HE WAS protected by this soldier and the all the rest, that he now jeopardizes by his self-serving judgment.

It IS disgusting. . .I hope NBC is hearing some of this wrath as well.

I will send them an e-mail. . .but I will not watch them.

On the one hand; I hope he is on a plane home. . .on the other. . .I hope he is having to stay right there. . .and having to suffer what he deserves.

I am mad too. I would like to support this Marine but I really don't know how at this point. These bastards in the media should be careful about what they put out but that's not going to happen since they are actively working against the war, our military, and the President. No way should this Marine be charged with anything. He was doing his duty to this country. He is a HERO!!!!! Wish we had more like him.

First of all there are several points that neither you or I will understand.
1] This Marine was wounded just the day before by a terrorist playing "dead" and as shot in the face.
2] This trick has been played several times killing & maiming his [mine] brothers in arms & harms way.
3] From what I saw in the video the terrorist had his hand by another's soma ch and may had been hiding something in the shirt. [Better safe than sorry]
4] It is described as the fog of war. [Something that very few of us will ever experience!]
This is what I know & think. I guess that you would had this young man's guts,brains splattered all over the walls of this building, while holding the dirt bags hand and singing some stupid song! On another note I called HQMC and spoke the PAO. He stated that they are being "Freep ed" by callers in support of this young "leatherneck" Keep up the good work "guys"!!!

you are so out to lunch. Rummy cannot arrange to have every enemy over there dead so we just walk in. HOw can you even imagine that. And the soldier is a soldier doing what they do in battle. Why would you blame either. A bulletin to you,,war is hell, things happen in war, it is not like a raid on a crack house, marines get killed, they know that and they take action before it happens if they are good and lucky. The person who is responsible for this is the guy who dared to act like an outlaw and take part in an insurgency against a lawful government. Period.
