"THe way is to bomb the hellout of Saddam. Get the innocent out of the way if we can , becuase right now, everyone cant be trusted in that region. If I were a soldier right now, with all respect , My adrenelin would be pumping, id be shitting bricks, I may lose my mind and shoot all :incoming enemy" Im sorry. This cannot be won PC way. Bring out the big one, sorry u dissagree"


Ok we already are bombing the hell out of every little rathole we suspect Saddam of hiding in. We have already altered the ROE because of the milita and we paid for it today by killing 7 women and children. We played into Saddam's hands on that one. If you were a soldier and had that "kill 'em all" mentality and you were in my squad, I'd take away your weapon and put you behind a desk. I AM a soldier. I have seen what an enemy without morals or a conscience can do. I think about it everytime I look at the video of friends, DEAD friends I had who died in Somalia. When they got killed, did it make me want to personally put a bullet in Mohammed Aideed's skull? You bet. Did it make me wanna unload my ammo clip into every Somali I saw? HELL NO. Because as a soldier I had and still have discipline! You get the ones who did this and let the innocents carry on. Revenge is a dish served cold. The Marines will "get some" for this heinous act. But they'll get the ones who did it. Not everyone who comes into sight.

Way to tell it, Bubba. That summed it up entirely.

A soldier without honor is just a thug with a uniform. I would have turned in my uniform and stripes before dealing in what some here are calling for.

The loudest bunch here probably never wore so much as a Girl Scout uniform.

United States Army, Retired.
