I'll withhold judgement, I do know that these guys have "pretend surrendered" then whipped out a weapon on many occasions.

Remember Guadalcanal....I was amazed, in USMC Boot Camp, at the amount of classroom history stuff we got pounded into our shaved heads.....and the lesson of Guadalcanal was one of 'em.

Semper Fi.

Was this Iraqi the same son-of-a bitch who 30 seconds before his death was trying to kill that marine?

ERR on the side of CAUTION.

We didn't start this. I want OUR soldiers to live.

Seems pretty simple to me: If you want to rescue someone, you send a medic. If you want him killed, you send a soldier or Marine. As someone used to post on Lucianne: ''The only good terrorist savage beast is a dead terrorist savage beast.'' And may God forgive me for thinking this way.

One thing the left does not like to announce in their cheerful death list of US soldiers.

There is no judgement to withhold. This is war and a wounded man can be as lethal as a sound one. And we are dealing with those who have no qualms about decapitating non-combatants with bread knives. To discipline or even investigate this young warrior would be anathema.
