Exactly.
There are 130,000 troops who are doing their job and doing it well and until it has been proven without a shadow of a doubt FReepers should be careful to not add to the hearsay.
Until and unless you have walked in their boots if you can't say anything good than best you say nothing at all!!

You, accusing someone else of making inflammatory statements?
Give me a break.
You're the queen of inflammatory statements.
This as all the signs of a Staged Atrocity. Dead bodies in a building that had supposedly not been fired on according to the famous "report" all the Anti War stooges are claiming to have seen.
What do you call that - - level-headed, calm, rational thought?
To: jw777
I am getting SO tired of this - msm and traitor pols making allegations and then trying the case in the press.
By the time the facts come out - weeks or months from now - it will be "common knowledge" that the marines are guilty.
Yesterday a picture of a dead Iraqi woman and child (how do we know they are Iraqi or even dead for that matter) was touted as "proof" that the marines had gone on a killing spree.
If they are dead and were shot the picture proves the marines did it how exactly? Unfortunately too many so called Americans are not willing to give our military the benefit of the doubt - something that used to be a given - and wait until the allegations are actually proven.
We make it so easy for those who are dedicated to our destruction.

I expect him to say, "We will investigate this matter". That's all.

Just my 2-1/2 cents == would be good to have the word "preliminary" inserted before probe in the title, like the article says ("preliminary military inquiry") as it reads as though this is a final finding, and it's not.

The President spoke today and he sounded like he had been whipped with a belt first. I wish I knew what was going on for real. I hope he's not being blackmailed or something.

The lies are growing more absurd by the minute.
All the media are in competition with each other trying desperately to become the 'Scud-Stud' of the Iraq War.
Now they're saying in this report from just a while ago that we dropped 500lb bombs on the houses.
"Another point of dispute is whether some houses were destroyed by fire or by airstrikes. Some Iraqis reported that the Marines burned houses in the area of the attack, but two people familiar with the case, including Hackett, the lawyer, said warplanes conducted airstrikes, dropping 500-pound bombs on more than one house."
May the Good Lord help us all from those who wish to do us harm both here and abroad!
God Bless our Troops and keep them safe.

Curious how you two know what is going to be in a report of an investigation that does not wrap up until Mid June 2006?
How about this.
The Marines made a report that turned out to be in error. Let see. Bomb went off. We did not shoot at the building. Dead people in there when Marines search. They know they did not shoot up the building. So Marine Infantry Officer assumes "Must of been killed by shrapnel from the bomb". Later the Medical Experts discover the people had been shot. Since THEY exhamine the bodies and the Combat Marines do NOT, it would be perfectly logical for the field guys to misreport the cause of death. That is a mistake, NOT a cover up.
Chew on this. How about a Staged Atrocity? The Terrorist kill the Civilians and later detonate the IED. Then they have one of their "Iraq Civil Rights" groups accuse the Marines of "running wild" knowing all our Junk Media and "Anti War" types will jump all over the Marines on this without even bothering to find out a FACT.
I think everyone better take a deep breath and back way off. Some of you are making wild assumption based on clever spin and misreporting from the Junk Media.

As General Ham points out, just the allegations alone - as the senile Murtha's handlers know all too well - can be devastating.
Because too many of the marines fellow "Americans" are ready to believe it. MSM sez it so it must be true.

We know there is an investigation. That is all he should say.
He doesn't have to be "troubled" as if it's a foregone conclusion of guilt.

The main ads one this goofy site is myspace.com and "donate". Is this article better than grabbing one at random out of your nearest HS writing class?

Good. This latest gaffe of being "troubled" is just another reason.

A preliminary military inquiry found evidence that U.S. Marines killed two dozen Iraqi civilians in an unprovoked attackI'm almost certain that this is not true.

It is troubling, I am troubled...what is wrong with that statement?......no one wants this to be true.

I support your rebuttal to our dear FR friends. To many are not connecting the dots. You have again as in other like posts attempted to connect a few. Those families where in on the deal. So this $hit that keeps on coming out that they where totally innocent is a pile of horse droppings. As you made the point in another post, the EID kill in this case was a line of site method. It happens all the damn time. Sadly it is possible the familiy where in essence held hostage by goons to allow them access to plant, bury wires, and stay in one of the houses and wait for the opportune moment to arrive.
But again. I for one will wait until the military decides on what really happened and what if any punishments should be dealt out.
There are to many Freepers giving to much credence to these differing reports.
