Navy SEALs have secretly captured one of the most wanted terrorists in Iraq — the alleged mastermind of the murder and mutilation of four Blackwater USA security guards in Fallujah in 2004. And for their trouble, three of the SEALs, members of the Navy's elite commando unit, are now facing criminal charges, sources told FoxNews.com.
The three have refused non-judicial punishment — called an admiral's mast — and requested a trial by court-martial.
Ahmed Hashim Abed, whom the military code-named "Objective Amber," told investigators he was punched by his captors — and he had the bloody lip to prove it.
Now, instead of being lauded for bringing to justice a high-value target, three of the SEAL commandos, all enlisted, face assault charges and have retained lawyers.

I believe that WWII there was an inspirational movie entitled "Why We Fight".
Today, the men protecting us should produce a movie entitled "Why We Don't Fight Anymore".

GWBush was less than protective, Obama is a nightmare. Imagine the message military lawyers have picked up from the hard left contingent in Washington DC. Unfortunately, most military lawyers are leftists, and leftists and mu slim terrorists are like peas in a pod.

What the hell are we doing to the men and women who risk their lives for us? Nothing good can come from this. Would they have been charged if the guy died in the capture? There are casualties in war.
If we don’t change this frame of mind, thousands of Americans will die, maybe millions.

This has GOT to be a joke!?!?
