Watch Fox News if you have it..they are not sanitizing the story. American-muslim, but not confirmed by the military.

Yeh...I can hear it now..."there was a rush to judgement!""

BTW: his name is Johnnie Cockroach!

[Walkingfeather]

We need to scan the DU for quotes of them glorifying this attack. Then we forward that persons email to the 101'st Unit.

they are not sanitizing the story

They have been running the sanitized AP version on their web site.

[dfwgator]

While you're right, I suspect Johnny and Jesse Jackson will demand otherwise, you watch.

[Hillary's Lovely Legs]

I will link the threads for you.

I won't even post this photo....I don't want to sully this forum with the crap carried by San Francisco appeasers

This should be exhibit #1...

[floriduh voter]

I've been on FR way too long tonight but I swear I read the name abdul somewhere. He's not a mohammed. I don't capitalize murderer's names.

[OperationFreedom]

Damn Muslims... GRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!

[God luvs America]

Don't dude...you'll only make yourself sick.

[Types_with_Fist]

That photo is truly disgusting.

[brydic1]

Any soldier that attempts wholesale murder of fellow soldiers in a combat situation should result in immediate execution upon a finding of guilt. I hope that Bush has the guts to see that same is carried out.

The perp may be a muslim--pretty much accepted as fact, but actually not confirmed. Witnesses said he was "acting funny" before the attack. Fox sources say the motive may be "resentment, but did not give details. The grenade attack targeted officers tents.

[Happy2BMe]

If this is true, the Field Commander has execution authority.

In fact, any rank having executed the mutineer would have been easily acquitted.

Now for the final question: Was the mutineer Muslim?

[dfwgator]

I hope somebody there orders a "Code Red" on this guy.

[DakotaGator]

This is a death penalty case, isn't it?

Yes. And lest people get confused, it does not matter if any soldiers died in this attack. The attack itself is treason by a member of the armed forces in the face of the enemy.

The maximum penalty is death by firing squad.

Do yall know if he has to come back to the states for trial or if they can handle it there?
