"The bullet hole shown in the video on the little boy's back has already been commented on that it could very well NOT cause paralysis, by several vets."

*****

What Animal Vets? Vets of the USO? Truck driver vets? Not Combat Vets. They must have ZERO understanding of Human anatomy as well. Bullet going in there, in the manner this "Iraqi Civil Rights Group" is claiming, is going to hit the spine. Forget all this nonsense about ricochet, or shrapnel or spent rounds. That does not make the accusation against the Marines any more plausible and in fact would serve to confirm the Marines version of events.

The accusation by the same "Iraqi Civil Rights Group" that created this video, is the Marines shot these people while standing in the same room with them as an act of cold blooded murder. If that were true, there is NO way based on where this "bullet wound" is on the child, that he could survive without at least being paralyzed.

Not only that, any bullet fired into the child in the manner claimed would have to continue on and come out some where. There would have to be a very large exit wound some where on the body. In addition, after being "Wounded" the child is going to have to survive an extended period of time lying there until aid come for them. Not a prayer of survival. None.

They would bleed to death. Even if this shot at such and angle that by some act of divine intervention missed the spine, it would have to go thru a lung or the heart. Remember, the accusation by the "Iraqi Civil Right Group" is supposedly this was a straight deliberate shot, not some freak richocet or other nonsense. Also, in the video they claim the Marines "cordoned off the area with a large number of soldiers so we could not get away" meaning NO aid would of been given to the "survivors" of the "massacre" for a very long period of time. The "Out of Control Marines" were not going to suddenly patch up people they just executed.

With a sucking chest wound the kid is dead. No if, maybes or buts. Anyone telling you different is a liar. Even if the child had a immediate access to top flight medical care, they are a quad minimum. Anyone telling you different is an utter and complete liar making up crap because they so desperately want to believe the accusations. They simply have either not seen the video or are lying. Here is the link. NO way you can get deliberately shoot someone at close range in the location shown with the weapons the Marines carry and not hit the spine. NONE.

Just watch the video for yourself. Don't blindly accept what some anonymous person tells you. Go watch it.

Then, go ask your "Combat Vets" what their MOS was.

"Not only that, any bullet fired into the child in the manner claimed would have to continue on and come out some where." I think I posted that before you did.


I never said the opinion of the paralysis was my opinion. I only reported what was posted.

Well done MN. Find one liar and you find them all. This was a deliberate frame-up by the enemy, we have to figure out which ones.

Pray for W and Our Marines

Shieffer, on FTN, wrapped up his show with comments about Dozier the wounded correspondent. He said that she was virtually dead before she got to Balad Hospital, and had lost 30 pints of blood. I guess no one fact chects Shieffer's material, because the human body only has about 10 pints of blood. I doubt if there was time to transfuse her with 30 pints before reaching Balad.
