>They should have been sent to a civilian hospital in wherever once they were stable enough to be moved ie out of IRAQ.<
You are letting your bias get in the way of common sense.The only way to evacuate them fom a military hospital in Iraq is on military aircraft.They go to Germany not New York City or Washington.The Drs. in Germany are the most skilled in the world at dealing with war casualties.When the armed forces except them as inbeds they owe them protection and care equal to that afforded our troops.
I disagree! We do not owe "them" (I said civilians, not journalists although they are usually the same) care in the military system. Once you evac them out of Iraq they can go to a civilian hospital in Germany(they have good trauma surgeons there) or ship them on to the states. Once they are stable they are supposed to be transfered to a civilian hospital per federal law!@!!
The way the article read these guys were with an Iraqi unit not "inbeds" with an American unit!!
