UCMJ applies to all actions taken on and off the battlefield regardless of whether or not we're fighting a conventional war. That's why Rusty Calley was prosecuted (and, unfortunately, merely imprisioned instead of shot) for the Mai Lai massacre despite the fact that he was engaged in hunting VC instead of NVA.

Our adherence to the rule of law is what separates us from the terrorists and is not suspended during a military campaign.

Ok, back to kindergarten now...kool-aid all gone.

For each and every Marine that gets it from a wounded POS Moo over there, I say we drop one of YOU into Iraq to clear out a mine field for the good guys...

And then listen to your Bravo Sierra...

BTW, we're going to break a few rules in this war...

Suck on that.
