Since the shooting in the Mosque, I've been haunted that I have not been able to tell you directly what I saw or explain the process by which the world came to see it as well. As you know, I'm not some war zone tourist with a camera who doesn't understand that ugly things happen in combat. I've spent most of the last five years covering global conflict. But I have never in my career been a 'gotcha' reporter -- hoping for people to commit wrongdoings so I can catch them at it.

Search. Try it, n00b.
I hope he goes on another gotcha patrol and winds up lost and alone in the middle of Fallujah!! He fails to see the other true stories of the "innocent" terrorists ambushing our troops by playing dead. TRAITOR!!!!!!!
What is amazing about Kevin Site's apparent effort to defend himslef, is that he sickeningly tries to paint himself as the VICTIM !! What an idiot.
Now, now. Even the best of us miss a search string once in a while. :)

He not only betrayed our Marines, he even betrayed that braying pack of wolves called "journalists".
irrelevant - some of us haven't seen the previous threads - play nice

Yes, just another media LIBERAL. And a real jerk loser!!!
He will be a victim if he shows up again around REAL MARINES...maybe they should dress him up to look like a terrorist, put an AK-47 in his hands...and, well, you know the rest....the jerk deserves it.
"There are also reports that the mosque, where ten insurgents were killed and five wounded on Friday may have been re-occupied overnight."
I'm sorry but this comment from Site's accounting says it all. This Marine had reason to believe going in that the Mosque may have been re-occupied over night.
I've said this before and will say it again. That video footage should not have been released to the public without the military first approving it. IT HAS DONE NOTHING OTHER THAN TO UNDERMINE OUR OPERATIONS THERE. JUSTICE WOULD STILL BE SERVED AND AN INTERNAL HEARING CONDUCTED, AS WAS GOING ON WITH ABU GAREIB, BY THE MILITARY.
I do not fault this marine. This cameraman apparently does fault him.

One more comment. They got the marine out of the area, why not the cameraman also?

It's always irrelevant when someone else is paying for the bandwidth, isn't it?
He should have just shouted ...'grenade'...then everyone would have shot.
So, I'm not sure what you mean when you say "even the best of us miss a search string once in a while".
In order to "miss" getting results on this title, on has to not have done a search at all.
Searching is mere courtesy when posting an article. Don't make excuses. The FREEPER is a n00b, period. Nudging him in the right direction is necessary education. Making fun of his inexperience can be a bonus. [wink]
