SSG Hal Warner's defense page includes the following line.

Recently, he was charged by the military with a crime he did not commit against an Iraqi terrorist.http://www.warnerdefensefund.com/

Lt Michael Behenna's defense fund site includes this information:

he was charged with the premeditated murder of an Iraqi suspected of being a terrorist.

In each instance these proud, patriotic Americans had to stand by as terrorists were released. Who released them? People not in the field. Who Objected? Soldiers like Warner and Behenna who were on the front lines and who knew these terrorists.

Now we see in the Stars and Stripes article that the military is finding it necessary to deal with the frustration of countless troops who see the injustice in terrorists who our troops have captured being released back into their midst.

I hope at the very least we drugged the crap out of them and injected them with trackable RFID’s while they were under.

I’ve always said they should have a public “release ceremony” and give each detainee a plaque and a 50 dollar savings bond along with a letter thanking them for all their cooperation.

My experience is that not all of them necessarily survive getting reeled in.......

Hmmm. The underlying message here is, don’t “detain”, kill. At least, that’s the message a lot of soldiers and Marines will get, especially those soldiers and Marines who have had buddies killed or maimed.

"U.S. military to release 100 detainees in Iraq"

Which will be followed shortly thereafter by a surge in attacks by militants for some reason.

There is no way in hell we aren’t knocking these guys out and putting an RFID chip in their bloodstream or somewhere it’ll stay put. No way.

"Prior to release, detainees also make a pledge to an Iraqi judge swearing to maintain peace and good conduct in the future," a task force news release read.

What? Shouldn't this pledge be enough to satisfy our troops? /s
