Maybe its more of a dem/republican thing. I'm a blue stater and I loved what he said. Especially if you heard the context (which of course, in the MSM you didn't) which was that you are shooting scum who beat women for not wearing a veil. As a woman, I'd shoot 'em myself.

I think Gen. Patton would have busted a knuckle or two on this guys head and read him the riot act.

My son is a combat infantryman- after hearing about this he wondered just what it is intellectuals think we train our military to do...

As an Army mom I've closely observed our response(s) to the Iraq war for two years now. When my son went to Iraq the country was in a Rah-rah-sis-boom-bah kind of mood...cheering for our soldiers etc. Barely two years later I listen to the same people repeating the crap they said during Vietnam.

As often happens- watching an ongoing event from afar gives a distorted view. Civilians like me will never understand what a soldier knows nor can we comprehend the love between them.

As long as the marines in his command know what he meant- I am in NO position to question him.

Not if we had passed through first and I'll point out that they don't say that the Marines are the first to fight for nothing.
