Note to human shields and anti-war protestors:

This is but one example of the regime you so passionately support.

But this is how Stalinists treat their own. Almost no one has been treated more harshly by the left than David Horowitz.

Deserters have always been executed. More offensive is women and children being used as bomb toters.

Summarily executing deserters in combat is NOT a war crime. It has been done in all armies throughout time- you could look it up.

If these guys didn't want to fight, they should have stayed home.

[RANGERAIRBORNE]

However, taking reprisals on the FAMILIES of deserters IS a war crime- and I heard something about that being done with Republican Guard deserters.

There will be a LOT of scores to settle very soon now...

the anti war protestors would have protested FOR Hitler during WWII.....

An obvious difference between US soldiers and Iraqi soldiers...if our guys went a week without food to eat...we'd shoot our own officers. If we didn't get paid within a month...we'd walk off the job. Our guys are there because they are volunteers and are treated like real warriors. In return, they will fight anyone on the face of the earth...and not give an inch.
