Navy SEALs Face Assault Charges for Capturing Most-Wanted Terrorist

Navy SEALs have secretly captured one of the most wanted terrorists in Iraq — the alleged mastermind of the murder and mutilation of four Blackwater USA security guards in Fallujah in 2004. And for their trouble, three of the SEALs, members of the Navy's elite commando unit, are now facing criminal charges, sources told FoxNews.com.

The three have refused non-judicial punishment — called an admiral's mast — and requested a trial by court-martial.

Ahmed Hashim Abed, whom the military code-named "Objective Amber," told investigators he was punched by his captors — and he had the bloody lip to prove it.

Now, instead of being lauded for bringing to justice a high-value target, three of the SEAL commandos, all enlisted, face assault charges and have retained lawyers.

Thank you, the day when truth stated causes name calling, is when the right becomes what the left already is.

[El Gato]

Surely even the left wing Kos and move on sheep can see that this is not good nor is his actions over terrorism and islamic nutters

I wouldn't count on it. Much more likely they think this is not just hunky dory, but quite laudable.

“Next time, just shoot him in the head. “

Then incinerate.
And parachute the charred remains to be caught in the superstructure of
a bridge in his old haunts in Iraq.

To let his buddies know...no matter how long it takes, we hunt ‘em
down, smoke ‘em out and make ‘em face justice.

And there just ain’t no percentages in screwing with the USA.

Even if the current occupant of The Oval Office has “a serious case
of the slows”.

(A term applied to one of President Lincoln’s generals. Now we’ve
got a CinC with the same sort of habit.)

Keep in mind, everyone, that this action is just what these degenerate terrorists have as part of their plans..to use our constitution against us..and 0bama and the ilk in DC are guilty of aiding and abetting.

“Ann Richards died?”

As best I recollect.
And Wikipedia cofirms.
(not that I believe everything I read on Wikipedia!!)

As you know...

Oh Yeah, I know. I just saw the list and wanted to give one of those "shout out" things. ;~)

[Katarina]

Thank you!!!! I agree with you!

I hear you and echo what you have said having served myself from 1969 to 1999. We did not care much for Carter for all toe obvious reasons. When Clinton came along most of my fellow Marines had a name for Clinton which we spoke of only among ourselves, never to our subordinates nor in public. We resented his protesting against this nation when he was supposed to be a student at Oxford. We considered that the act of a traitor and he was as bad as Hanoi Jane.
And now, the Resident in the WH...we don't even know if he has the legal right to be there and until these documents are no longer under seal at his order, our military personnel may be at the whim of an impostor.
I loved my time in the service. But were I not retired from the service now, I would have retired the day that goofball was sworn in to office. I would not serve under this fool.
I wonder how many of the flag rank officers serving now were selected under the Clinton administration?

[rlmorel]

I did read read your post.

Please tell me where I grouped you in with the “it’s Bush’s Fault club”?

Read my post again. At no time did I have the “audacity” to do that, though I am not sure why you would classify it as rude. I didn’t swear or resort to an ad hominem attack. My post in reply to you was written in a specifically general tone, and I did that deliberately. No offense, but I honestly don’t follow your posts enough to know your position. And I certainly don’t mean that as a personal affront, but FR is a big and busy place.

This is sickening.

[rlmorel]

Thanks, Katarina. I just think that too many heap the problems in the military on former President Bush. The reality is that this began back in the late Eighties and came full head in the Nineties with the perfumed princes the Clinton administration put in place, as Celtic Gal alludes to in her post following yours.

Bush had his problems, and he didn’t do right by some people (which he has to live with) but he did have “some” things going on during his presidency, and wasn’t playing golf every other day.

[little jeremiah]

I hope that they are thinking of alternatives.

[rlmorel]

Tell me where I have called you a name of any kind.

You have been here since when, May 2009? You better grow a thicker skin if your feelings are hurt by a post like mine.

[Katarina]

Thank you for posting these.

[Freedom2specul8]

Indeed they have. I feel any kind of reply would be weak and inept. Even they need breaks.. I do know that I can’t thank them enough, will never be able to...and can stare at those pics all day.

Ann Richards died?

Battling esophageal cancer for six months, Ann Richards died from complications of the disease on September 13, 2006, in Austin, Texas.

[MurrietaMadman]

Time for our whole military to stand down until Barry gets his crap together!

It's also time for American citizens, we who have reaped the benefits of our servicemen and women's sacrifices, to stand up and prove to the members of the military their daily sacrifice is highly regarded and deeply appreciated.

Enough of putting up with this false moral platform the commies-in-charge designed to mock US and celebrate our enemies.
