Catch-and-release of Taliban fighters in Afghanistan angers troops (to kill our sons and daughters)

Washington Examiner ^ | 12/06/10 8:05 PM | Sara A. Carter

[Tulsa Ramjet]

We catch them,...we release them,...they kill our sons and daughters. The world is upside down and our government doesn't care.

[GulchBound]

I would be less inclined to take prisoners in this scenario. Some of these prisoners were taken at great risk to our troops, when they could easily have been dispatched. Maybe the logical course of action in this situation will result in a change of the ROE.

..current policy from the white house.....

I am fearful that Obama will continue on through the Wicked Gate without impeachment....
This is all deliberate, maliciously intended and purposeful in Obamas nefarious agenda of bringing down the west. Take down America, the leader, and the rest follows. Assange is just a little player like Rosa Brooks but cumulatively they have their effect. For Asssange? Obama eased his path. Much like Obama is easing the path for the OIC based UN to come into the US to hunt “War Criminals”.

Obama , culturally never was an American as he carries many chips on his shoulder and as we see from his old culture at many levels. He feels for his Kenyan identity, he feels for his muslim identity, and he feels his angst against white and America....

On top of it, Obama is a Muslim wanabe or Wahabe, I call him a ghazi.

“One of the prettiest sounds on earth” is the Muslim call to prayer at sunset.
Barack Hussein Obama as quoted by Nicholas D. Kristof in the New York Times - March 6, 2007

• The FIRST thing Obama did as a newly elected Illinois State Senator was to attempt to declare a Muslim holiday. Obama sponsored Bill SR0110 in the 90th General Assembly to declare November 1, 1997 to be Islamic Community Center Day. It did not pass.

All this brings on a interesting question... how can America have any struggle against Islam, or protect herself with the most powerful muslim in the world sitting in the White House?

Be wary, wary aware ....and wary, wary afraid...get prepared for more creeping sharia...more than what is coming out of the White House today

[mrmeyer]

Time to pull the troops out and liberally apply these:

[556x45]

There is a bright side to this. Since its a known catch/release scenario our troops will be more likely to kill rather than capture when its left to their discretion.

[Cheetahcat]

Time to bring the troops home ,Screw this crap.

[GeronL]

The new RoE’s I heard say that if a combatant throws down the gun he’s free to go?? Is that for real??

[lesko]

We are soooo nice, the US always gets to play ‘nice’. Isn’t that nice?

War is hell. Can’t help but think of how the Soviets forced the surviving German 6th Army soldiers to hobble to Siberia after they surrendered at Stalingrad.

[Obadiah]

Kinda like this guy?

[NonValueAdded]

Hope we lojacked their arses

[drypowder]

Haven't you heard, US troops can and have been prosecuted for killing the Muslim enemy.

[rahbert]

Theres nothing to bomb. Well, a few cave complexes.

We should be holding field courts martial on the
Talib we catch, and impose death by firing squad
on them.

Unless they accept baptism into Christianity...

[FreedomPoster]

Islam delenda est.

[School of Rational Thought]

Do you suppose they are trying to emulate the “successful” approach to catch and release of illegal aliens.

[The Comedian]

We need a slight modification:

Catch, Execute, Release.

Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.

[School of Rational Thought]

Do you suppose they are trying to emulate the “successful” approach to catch and release of illegal aliens.

[rockinqsranch]

There’s only one thing you can do with a war, and survive period. Playing at it isn’t it.

[444Flyer]

More insanity from the makers of the deadly ROE’s who most likely have never served a day in the theater themselves. Very easy to send off our sons and daughters into harm's way without the ability to defend themselves, let alone win. Let them win or bring them home.

[Conservative Tsunami]

Let's just GTFO. This is an insane joke. Iraq isn't any less funny.

As it is these poor guys are dealing with ridiculous RoE as they're hung out to dry. What a disgrace.

WHO is making this decision??

[MichaelP]

You know, after Viet Nam, Military leaders swore never to fight wars with our hands tied behind our backs, or with political filters on tactics. Yet, here we are, doing the exact same thing in every war we've fought since. I guess that the only war you can fight for true victory is one in which the other side is out to annhilate you, and it is either us or them.
