UNTOLD STORIES ... "IF YOU DON'T INTEND TO DANCE, DON'T INSIST ON CHOOSING THE MUSIC."
Christian-news-in-maine.com ^ | 27 November, 2004 | Danny Calhoun

Posted on 11/27/2004 6:08:49 AM PST by newsgatherer

Last week the President reached through a group of hostile Chile security thugs and rescued his top Secret Service agent, preventing what could have been a blood bath.
Today's lead story deals with another group of men that President Bush should reach through and rescue from a hostile, corrupt, anti-US, group of thug reporters.

UNTOLD STORIES

Special report for Christian News in Maine by Danny Calhoun

We are either at war or we are not. It would appear that our own Defense Department has given in to Political Correctness once again. Again we have become so caught up in how our "enemies" perceive us that we are asking our troops to pay a very heavy price. When I say "our enemies" I am also referring to Europe, and other parts of the world than just the Middle East, and way to many people here in our own country. How else can you explain the stories headlined "Bodies of 4 Iraqis Flown to U.S. for Autopsies in Falluja Inquiry" and "Marine Kills Wounded Prisoner."

In a war one doesn't waste precious resources to investigate the deaths of the enemy. The purpose of war is to kill the enemy. Forensic investigation might be appropriate in peacetime, when there is the luxury of time. In a hot war zone, as Falluja is, the appropriate action in the heat of battle is to ensure that a cowardly and barbaric enemy does not get another chance to blow you up after you think he had surrendered. The objective of our troops being there was to kill the enemy.

There are three stories here. Two that people normally don't hear and one that everyone does here..

Kepp up the good work. It matters tremendously. We have been lied to and fed garbage by the media for too long. But the truth will out, and the search for truth is unending.

"Political correctness" reminds me of what I have heard of the "Red Guard" campaign in China under Mao. Have we been getting a R.G. rather than P.C. actually?

Free,

Not all the emdia, the old media, yes, but most of us in the new media, of which CNIM and FreeRepublic are part, work to be honest and fair, while still remaining true to what the US really is.

The only question I have about the incident is why the marine waited so long to shoot.

And FR is like the old fashioned foot-patrol beat cop on the main stream trying to keep the holligans in line drubbing them when he catches the holligans in the act but still worrying them all the same even when he's not in sight, because they know he's there.

Thank You for pushing the truth to the fore front.

yup, very true. Freepers make small online papers like www.christian-news-in-maine.com not only possibe, but highly successful enities.

We now get more hits than some local weekly papers print copies. And we not even six months old yet.

But, while the msm go to the bull nyt, how do they know when they are not lying, we go straight to the source and FR, talk radio, and other new media sources.

> The purpose of war is to kill the enemy

Once upon a time,
the "purpose" of war was to
pillage and take slaves.

Then the purpose changed
to enforcing allegiance.
Then, again, it changed

and became a kind
of political/business
expediency . . .

In the modern world,
things sometimes get all jambled
cause not everyone

has kept up with all
the changes, and others don't
desire the changes . . .
