Explain to me why these men are in Leavenworth prison.

They were convicted of murder for killing suspected enemy combatants. Do they represent the overwhelming majority of American soldiers who killed suspected enemy combatants? Obviously not since they sit in prison while the others roam free. So by your statement, you are saying that the rest should be in prison as well. Nice.

Now that I have answered your question, maybe you would have the courtesy of going back and answer the ones that were asked prior to yours.

I just worked with a soldier who recently returned from his second tour of duty in Afghanistan. His first tour of duty was while Bush was in office, his second was under O’Bummer.

He is a basket case as he said the rules of engagement have changed so much that he can’t protect his men. He said that his first tour was in offensive mode and they lost very few men. His second tour of duty under O’Bummer was in defensive mode and the losses were high. They were not allowed to shoot back when shot at. They were not allowed to fly the American Flag as they were told it offended the local people. It’s not a war, its a cluster ........

The worst was one of his men was being brought up on charges for wrongfully killing an insurgent. Needless to say, he came back for psych treatment as he said it is impossible to protect your guys under the current rules of engagement. The hatred for our Pres. among the current active duty troops is very high. It’s no wonder that good soldiers are leaving the military.
