"I simply don't understand why he was embedded with the Marines, witnessed all the action, and took a very selective video tape which was promptly released and al-Jezaara has been showing it."

Along with FOX, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC

They are getting even because Kerry lost.

So the big 5 liberal media are targeting our troops.

Just ask yourself, why does FOX, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC show this over and over.

Then ask why did they never ask Kerry why he never signed Form 180.

See a pattern?

Thanks for the ping Tonk.

Tonk, you betcha!

Just because the election is over and President Bush won decisively doesn't mean that the fight is over. These people are relentless in their hatred, and they will do whatever it takes to undermine everything that is good and right.

As I type this, I'm seeing on Fox News the attacks on Porter Goss from the leaked memos by disgruntled Carter-Clinton CIA dilettantes. Our fight has just begun...

Pretty tough to miss it.

The only issue is how we hurt these guys. I don't know if there are enough of us that a boycott will help.

We can call, e-mail, and write our displeasure. I'm not sure they care though.... They have their own agenda.

Tonk, I listened to a reporter who listed figures for the dead and wounded in Fartloojah. He truly could not grasp the idea that a Marine (Always capital 'M') wanted to return to combat as soon as possible. He doesn't understand that it takes a special breed to want to do what we patriots do. It was painfully obvious that camaraderie meant nothing to him.'Blame the U.S.' appeared to be his mantra.

Here's another embedded guy; but he was FOR the US, not against us. Karl Zinsmeister, photographer. Big story in this month's American Legion magazine and he was the photographer. And they also questioned him. Give me a few minutes and I'll try to find an online link to the article.

Ragtime Cowgirl has known about Karl Zinsmeister for quite some time and has posted his photos here many times.

Tonk

The troops will see he pays. You know it and I know it. He'll pay. What travels faster aboard ship word that liberty has been called or that some albatross PO'd the Old Man and Liberty is Canceled. Same with the outing of the Photog as a Quisling. The troops know and Forecastle mast will be given. You know it and I know it.

I don't see the article I read, nor the photographer, but he is highlighted in this issue in print.

Karl Zinsmeister (a google news search hates him; SO, what does that tell us, eh?)

I agree, Tonk. Communist radio here in this area (from the nearby college) has been calling for the adoption of international law, American submission to the Hague, and stringent punishment of the Marine. Interviews with university profs were broadcast in which the spectre of even greater "atrocities" was suggested. Talk of the dangerous work of expository journalists was hyped, as well.

They're out for blood.

Have we ever heard the MSM calling for mideastern or south east asian countries with islamic extremist groups to come under the jurisdiction of international law?

The election is over, and Democrats don't have to pretend they like or even respect the troops any more. I don't see as much wrong with Sites's blog as some folks do, but he clearly has a low opinion of the soldiers and Marines in Iraq. That's probably true of most Dems and certainly true of most in the Democratic Party media.

I would think that, thanks to Sites, the risk level for the media embedded with the troops has gone through the roof.

The enemy considers the way our troops follow the laws and customs of honourable war to be a stupid weakness; indeed, he often uses treachery for the sheer joy of it, when operating openly might be more effective. For an example look up the name "Omar al-Khadr." The Sites types, Amnesty International, and the Canuckistan regime insisted that we let him go, after he murdered an American soldier and wounded others by faking death so that he could attack them from behind -- then the surviving Americans saved his life, treated his wounds, and sent him to Guantanamo. He's now boasting about killing Americans, and recruiting more terrorists for al-Qaeda.

Terror and treachery is the vision of the world that these people want to create. "These people" meaning both the Islamic terrorists and their media/Democratic fluffers like Sites.

d.o.l.

I think the more I hear about it, the more I think this young Marine should just be allowed to walk away without punishment. I think that having embedds along when they go into combat is BS and if that reporter had any ethics at all, he should've released the video only to the Marine's command first. Now the libs will scream for this poor Marine's head, but I for one, will fight them on this issue. They don't know squat about combat, and therefore they are in no position to judge anyone. They want to find out about combat, send them into the fire zones first ahead of our armed troops. Then they will truly know fear.

In the heat of combat you ain't got time to waste on all the niceties of the "civilized" world. In the liberals eyes, in order for this Marine to be judged innocent, he would've had to have offered the insurgent a cigarette and be shot to pieces first before firing back.

Screw the liberals and their press!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
