Coop this is nothing more than a trap for our guys, the story changes everyday, little details like this one young girl account. How many BDU's have been reported stolen or missing, whos to say the moles from the Iraqi Army are not doing this dressed as Marines?

Safa Younis Salim, the 12-year-old, said she lay on the ground, covered with her sister's blood, and pretended to be dead while her family died around her. Her sister's blood spurted fast; it was like a water tap, she said.

Safa Younis (also seen spelled as Yunis) Salim.

There was one survivor, Safa Younis Salim, 13, who in an interview said she lived by faking her death. "I pretended that I was dead when my brother's body fell on me and he was bleeding like a faucet," she said.

Only 13-year-old Safa Younis lived -- saved, she said, by her mother's blood spilling onto her, making her look dead when she fell, limp, in a faint.

Boxerblues this is not just a reply to you but to all... I just had enough reading the responses on this thread and I finally have to say something.

I just wonder, do any of you even think or care about the humanity in all of this. I have seen this movie Time To Kill and I love the ending of the movie. Closing arguments for the defense explaining the BRUTAL rape and hanging, and urinating on this little girl..

"Do you see her, broken, bloody, laying there in the bottom of the creek... soaked in their sweat and their urine.... Do you see her? NOW Imagine she is white!!"

Can anyone sometimes imagine if these "animals" as you call them were Christian. Sometimes I just wish we could see our own reflection in the mirror, but then again MAYBE WE ARE!!

I was in the military, I know how difficult it can be. I cannot relate how difficult it is over there now. I feel bad for the Marines they are going through mental toughness that many of us have never and hopefully will never see. They may have snapped IT IS POSSIBLE and PROBABLE from the sound of it.

If they did, there should be consequences. If they didn't may they be found innocent.

As for the hundreds of thousands killed in Iraq I wish for once I could read someone in this forum have a little RESPECT for life. We are, in a sense, SUPPOSEDLY Christians RIGHT???
