As it has always been, so it is now.
These MF's (Muslim Fundamentalists) do not observe the Geneva Convention. The MF say the only follow the conventions of war as stated in the Koran, but they just put a bullet in the head of Margret Hassan, in violation of even the koran.
The Genevea convention states that if you don't follow the rules of war you are not protected by them.
The MF's have been using false surrender since the beginning of the war, it is there main tactic. Pretend to be an ordinary citizen then drive your car up and blow yourself up!
If you have any doubt, Kill the MF and have another MF move the body.
Bump.
Right on!
That Marine in Falluja killed a terrorist. In the heat of battle. I don't understand what all the fuss is about. The liberals are whining because one of our heroes killed a terrorist. This is the War on Terror, is it not?
We support you, Devil Dog! Keep up the great work!
Semper Fidelis.
BTTT!!!!!!!!
Last I checked Al-queda was not a signatory to the Geneva Conventions. What we are facing is nothing more than yelping from the "world" and "arab street" demanding that we abide by something that clearly does not apply. Even if it did, the first time they used the booby-trapped corpse or false surrender ploy, that scrap of paper becomes null & void. This is sort of like the constant reference by the leftists to the separation between church and state that can't be found in the constitution.
Are you serious?
Who are those posters?
I would prosecute these troopers' commanding officers under the U.C.M.J., for failure to administer security on the matter of revealing identities.
These troopers' families are now known to the terrorists.
Which is probably Mr. Sites' purpose.
Yet our leaders should be hung out to dry for failure to enforce the rules and the law.
Including, the fact that all news and information is subject to review before release to the public. Excepting that the Bush Administration is run by lawyers, or other people who are afraid of or lawyers' subjects.
The willful disregard of lessons learned, of the law, of the rules set up to protect our people ... and the arrogance of the Bush-Bots in and out of office, opening vulnerability after vulnerability, and then defending that ignorance by stating things like, "Well, we can't be everywhere doing everything."
No, I will not vote for Rice; I will vote against Rice; because she lied.
We did know that a civilian aircraft could and would likely be used as a weapon against civilian targets.
We would have lost Iraq by now, if not for the efforts of people OUTSIDE THE LOOP, who have spent time they have not got, to try and get ammo, armored vehicles, and body armor to Iraq and *other* places not in the news.
The Bush Administration is screwing up, because few, if any, want or know or have the guts to lead.
The leading that is being done, is so, by self-disciplined military (and some civilian) leaders, here and there, who are standing up DESPITE THE BUSH-BOTS.
This is also where, I repeat again, that we need many more troops ... and aircraft ... and maintenance support for them all.
Not to mention, the duties of the censors who are supposed to review ALL information flowing from the war zone.
Having said that, there is no evidence, even in the photos, that the young Marine had reason to believe that the "wounded" terrorist was not a threat, so the odds favor the Marine, and may God embrace him and the lost man who attempted to take advantage of that Marine's good grace.
He's at the wrong end of that gun.
In that same situation, firing first is understandable.
The guy moves and you don't know if he's armed or not.
Bump!
Your comment on Rice went over my head.
"You keep us alive."
It is you, Marine, and your brave band that keeps us and everything we stand for, alive in a world dedicated to our destruction. You are all in our prayers. You do your Conutry proud, with a tinge of humility, as we realize there is no way we can properly repay you or properly thank you for your Service.
I believe I speak for everyone on this Free Republic board, when I promise you that this Marine that the MSM and extreme left wing loonies of every ilk, are intent upon crucifying-will get their wish, only over our dead bodies. I do mean that literally.
My apologies to you Budge.
You don't get a chance to vote for "DOCTOR" Rice, I am happy to report. Not unless she consents to bless this country with a run for President in 08. And in that case you witholding your vote would be as disasterous as one drop of rain missing the ocean.
I don't believe that "DOCTOR" Rice ever intentionally lied about anything in her life. But assuming she has lied once or twice in her life-that is going to drive you to vote for her opponent, who has only told the truth, once or twice in her life???
This is a keeper!!!!
Thanks for posting, snopercod.
