around the time of his initial disappearance, there was a sniper team found dead. It was a day or two after he left, or the actual day he left.
Many here thought it was a sign of his treason, that he turned in some Marines to prove he was not fighting Iraqi's anymore or something.
I was an original accuser of this Marine, but then I got an e-mail from an Old Marine I served with who kept in touch with some other Old Marines from Quantico. Quantico SERE people said that Hassoun's story was legit, and I publically apologized for calling him a traitor.
For the Military's story to change, something profound has been learned, that is my opinion. This guy sounds like a traitor again.
But I will hold off on saying that this time...until the trial...
I hope you're wrong Race, but something tells me to trust your initial instincts on this one. It's not likely that the entire snipre team would be taken out in such quick order without some kind of ruse.
