Kudos to the reporter who did this story. It is the first one I have seen that did not pin guilt on the USMC.
May he rest in God's Peace and may the truth exonerate his fellow Marines

Making women and children kneel and pray before shooting them at close range is planned ritual execution in traditional Al Qeda terrorist style, not the act of "out of control" Marines. If the Marines went nuts, they would of just shot them up, not had them kneel and pray and then shot them execution style. Notice once again, ALL this hinges on the Iraqi accusers. The SAME people who were sheltering the terrorists that detonated the IED.
I don't know what happened in Hidatha but then neither do any of the Junk Media nor self proclaimed Freeper Moralists who are rushing to render a judgment here.

I hear ya. I've been arguing the same thing for days. But this is strictly a tribute article, by the AP no less. I almost fell out of my chair.

The situation was so bad that an airstrike had been called in, one of their fellow soldiers was cut in half. Thats what happens when you harbor terrorists.

Yes, that's true. But please read the article. It's a nice piece on the slain warrior, his comrades and the father.

At least Beckle did state that what Murtha said was wrong; Colmes on the other hand, is filled with glee over this story. Pretty disgusting.

To: delacoert
Yes, it may have been the same interview, but the other article, as typical, spent 25% of the time talking about the slain warrior, the other 75% rehashing the charges against them.

Where did you see that the Marines made them kneel in prayer? If the enemy is saying that, it has to be such a total lie that even raghead Murtha would have to step back. Maybe.
The women and kids might have died as human shields for the terrorists, but I will never believe Marines went through houses killing innocent civilians. It just doesnt happen.

Very true...but, were you as surprised as I was that Bob got SO angry about Hannity critcizing Murtha??
Do you know who I keep thinking about...just waiting in the weeds to come out with HIS smear job????
John F'n Kerry....he is SO good at calling the military war criminals and baby killers...he is probably so giddy...._____ (I can't fill in the rest in mixed company)>
