Cpl. Joshua Belile thought up the words to Hadji Girl in September while drinking coffee with buddies in Iraq.
It was just a joke, Belile says, a play on lines from a movie. His fellow Marines seemed to enjoy the song, so they got Belile up on a stage with his guitar.
Someone taped his performance, and now Belile stands in the center of a growing controversy, one that threatens to drag the New River Air Station Marine and his blackly humorous song into the debate about the alleged incident at Haditha and the war in Iraq.

Think before engaging mouth!
Although we all have a right to freeze peaches, the constitution does not protect you from someone throwing them back at you............
I've seen the video and I don't think it "fell flat" on anybody except CAIR and their terrorist buddies.
Oh dear. He sang a SONG!
Sweet! Another non story the media can milk to death!
I thought it was funnier than hell!!!
/Cheer for free speech. I laughed.
Its amazing that people think that are military men do not harbor anti-enemy sentiments when they see their brothers die. In every war that we have been in, some or many of our soldiers have held great contempt for the enemy. How is this situation any different from Korea or Vietnam where we were fighting the same nationality of people we were defending. The enemy and the friendlies were commonly referred to in a derogatory manor.
Its sad to hear that the marine might be punished for a lack of sensitivity. HELLO, they are taught to kill the enemy. Now today we expect them to be these bleeding heart sensitive men and women? Please.
that's it!! everyone order the book...make CAIR eat printing expenses....
then use the books as "alternate" fuel.
Man, I hope the next Republican president makes it a priority to purge the military of every last trace of political correctness. It's getting people killed.
Dirka dirka muhammed jihad.
It's really sad to think that this guy's career might well be over--or worse--because of this.

I dont think it is a joking matter when you talk about holding up a child to being shot, he [Ibrahim Hooper] said.And yet, no objections to the part of the song that says:
But the family shoots the girl and then points their AKs at the Marine.I guess that kind of behavior is par for the course for Muslims.
MSM: WAR=touchy feely indocrination for armed forces
WAR=sensitivity training for armed forces
WAR=backstabbing of armed forces
WAR=ignoring plight of servicemen upon return home
I think we can make up a more accurate name for CAIR using their acronym.

GI's have the greatest sense of humor anywhere..and they make complaining into an art form...NO ONE can complain with as much humor as they do...
..remember the exchange in Private Ryan while they're walking through the field...discussing the merits of putting their lives on the line for whoever this Private Ryan was...hilarious and typical:)
