The example of "your relatives" is done on purpose. Those in the military are defending their loved ones and you and your loved ones from nuclear and biologic as well as conventional weapons on AMERICAN soil.
I have and would do everything in my power to defend my family and country...
I've re-read the article. If "blood clots" are the cause as well as blunt force chest... a 18-20 hour plane ride after a battle could cause deep venous thrombus to form in the legs. If they were at Gitmo and were in a cell and confined or chose to not eat or drink in order to "hunger" strike or were made to lay or sit for long periods of time.... same result blood clots in the lower extremities. then any movement breaks them loose and causes... what appears to be "heart attack" but may be a pulmonary embolus. This is all speculation in that we haven't seen the bodies, don't know the history of the prisoners involved and most importantly don't know who leaked this or why.
I can assure you that any of the prisoners during transport to Gitmo could have been diverted to UAE, or Indonesia, Phillipines, Russia or any number of smaller countries for "interogation" using what ever techniques needed. Then they could have "disappeared". There is no reason to "kill" or "torture" anybody that the "public" would need to ever hear about.
There has been no "list" of prisoners and we don't know if they have 200-600 people in custody. Nobody in the public knows that. What is certain is that the US is being made to look like the rogue and all the libs are wringing their hands. Screw them.
they are hoping that our Armed Forces are given sufficient casualties that Bush can be "damaged" but not enough to "lose" or have mass casualties in the US.
Maybe some of them do want us to get beat.... that would show us a lesson. Then we could elect Dems to "fix" everything. (spitting on the ground) screw Daschle, Kennedy, Hillary and the rest of the "hate America first" crowd and you too if the shoe fits pal. I'm through with the mealey mouthed critics who've forgotten the 3000 American casualties. When was the last time that we've heard from Khadaffi or Noriega or any dictator that killed Americans and was bitch slapped? Lesson #1 - Don't make deals with dictators that harm Americans or support those that harm Americans.
sorry for the rant... lots of buddies with boots in the dirt and no limit hunting season starting.
