A preliminary military inquiry found evidence that U.S. Marines killed two dozen Iraqi civilians in an unprovoked attack in November, contradicting the troops’ account, U.S. officials said on Wednesday.
President George W. Bush said he was troubled by news stories on the November 19 killings of men, women and children in the town of Haditha, and a general at the Pentagon said the incident could complicate the job for the 130,000 U.S. troops in Iraq.
“Allegations such as this, regardless of how they are borne out by the facts, can have an effect on the ability of U.S. forces to continue to operate,” Army Brig. Gen. Carter Ham, deputy director for regional operations for the military’s Joint Staff, told a Pentagon briefing.
Afraid to stand by your own words? Or is there, in fact, some action they could have taken that would not be acceptable to you? And, if so, what is it?
Forget the tabloids. Go right into the belly of the beast.
I just read it....disgusting...
I support these Marines. Murtha is a senile traitor who doesn't realize what he's doing and these allegations aren't going to help our PR around the world, whether they are true or not. mmmmmmmkay? I'm got nothing to do with satan. mmmmmmmmkay?
I hate IEDs. The prayer squad rushed to judgment.
Seacrest out.
YOu don't read tabloids???
Okay, then you must be a fly on the all, or an asp in the bosom.
I think you just want attention and to pretend you have inside info.
In any case, your remarks are totally inappropriate.
Oh my! I think my screen just fogged up! WOWZA!
LOL
That's what I thought was most probable. The girl's confession is curious. The terrorists may have just used one of those houses and then took off. Maybe after firing some shots off to harass them. The Marines seem to have been fired on from somewhere after they were finished in the first house. It's reported that they thought the shots came from the second house. They seem to have been firing off harassment shots and then retreated to some strong point.
Wow....what's the record for comments being removed on a thread? It looks like the Moderator has been busy, here.
If it isn't, then POST THE LINK TO YOUR SOURCE.
If not, then apologize for your rumor mongering.
I believe this thread now qualifies for FReeper Island.
You know.........one of the many who just LOVED President Bush, and voted for him twice, until he BETRAYED us.
The usual garbage from a DU invader.......
Get over it you droid, I have said it over and over, I support our guys in battle anywhere in the world, no matter what.
Now vamoose and take your sissified lectures elsewhere.
LOL! A picture of a deeply troubled marriage, don't you think? :)
Nope. Not even close. FV spread rumours about Laura souring on her husband and her marriage. As if that could be characteriize simply as Laura being mad at Karl Rove.
Rubbish.
But your post made even less sense, if possible.
Made me ask myself, where do I begin to unravel something so twisted, then I suspected the influence of something a little too "strong"...
But, if I understand what you are saying, even if every outrageous allegation uttered by Murtha is 100% true, and then some, that's fine and dandy with you, semper fi, right?
They are PURE EVIL.
To actually do posts that insinuate that freepers are evil for exercising their free speech rights, is evil.
So, they're getting divorced? Or is she going to stay in a loveless marriage? Or is it possible that the fear of Satan was an overreaction?
Diet Dr. Pepper's my drink. Think I'll go pop open a can right now. :)
Yeah, I saw that reported too. On the cover of a trashy tabloid called The Globe in the supermarket checkout line.
Is that where you get your information? Could I interest you in some Kansas beachfront property?? BWAHAHAHAAA!!!!
