No need. Nothing will happen to him.

I have no clue, but am willing to help once soemthing concrete is set up. There is a talk show host here in Ga. who I think would jump in to help also.

I think you're jumping the gun. Let the investigation play itself out first, then make your decisions.

Michael Savage mentioned this last night on his radio talk show and says he is working on a fund to pay for a civilian legal team for the kid. He fully expects the Bush Administration to toss the kids to the wolves and I hate to say I agree with him.

Please keep me updated. Once everything is set up I will be more than happy to contribute.

He has not been charged. He will not be charged. He did nothing wrong and the military is hopefully just trying to find a politically correct way of saying so.

At this point he does not need a fund. He needs nothing more than to be released back to his unit so he can kill some more bad guys.

That's his job and from the film it appears that he is pretty darned good at it.

Semper fi.

I think under military justice a soldier gets an advocate paid by the government (and quite a good one); however, a fund may help this soldier's family, as he may not be getting paid during suspension.

What have we come to as a country that we even need to have this discussion?

How many WWII veterans would have been prosecuted if the media were there as they are in today's wars?

The military should reserve the right to edit any video taken by an embedded reporter for content and context otherwise they open themselves up to this sort of thing.

It is absolutely sickening what they are doing to this young, brave man.

May hot, speeding lead from an insurgent find the forehead of the reporter who perverted this situation.

At this stage I think our moral and political support is most important.

Basically, we need to persuade the chain of command and the politicians that there will be more trouble if they throw him to the wolves than if they don't. We are the people they need to placate, not the traitors in the MSM and France. Would they rather have the MSM on their neck or us?

They should understand that the MSM will be on their neck anyway. If this blows over, the MSM will just find something else to bash them with. If they get away with it, they'll be encouraged to try it again. Democrats, reporters, and Arabs are like yellow dogs. If you show any fear of them, they'll run in behind you and bite your ankles.

Then at least he should get a fair hearing.

May want to wait and see where the investigation goes first. I'd hate to see the Marine tarred or toasted till more facts are revealed. I'll wait for the JAG/IG's reports first.

The alternative is to level the mosque. Sounds like an excellent idea.

Heard a talking head White House correspondent talk about this today. The White House apparently thinks it's no big deal. It's only the media that is obsessing over it.

This is amazing! The lamestream media thinks it's "too controversial" to show what Islamic terrorists actually do, but then make a big fuss over an American Marine shooting a wounded terrorist who might have had a remote control in his hand.

The worst the Marine is guilty of is panicking in the heat of the moment.
