A Marine who killed an unarmed wounded Iraqi in a Fallujah mosque "will be dealt with," the U.S. ambassador in Iraq said yesterday, as the military said it was looking into other deaths at the scene of the shooting.

I'm beginning to think that my initial suspicious were right, and that they intend on prosecuting this guy. They may be looking for a 'pattern of abuse', if they're looking into the other deaths.

Which doesn't bode well. If they want to find legal grounds to start stringing people up, they've got it.

WHAT is going on? Who's in charge here? The military? Or the politicians? Are we going to sacrifice this young man to the politicians in Washington or the UN? This sounds like "Who's on first?"

They better leave this Marine alone! I am really upset about these comments like "will be dealt with". I am also not hearing an uproar of support from Americans for this Marine. Are freeprs the ONLY ones in his corner?

If they screw this Marine I wouldn't blame others for leaving the service.This guy was doing his job and he should be commended for his toughness and bravery after returning to the battle the day after receiving a wound to his face.John Kerry earned awards for far less and a early trip home to boot.
