PC GONE MAD URGENT PING!
"A pre-trial, or Article 32, hearing next month will determine whether 2nd Lt. Ilario G. Pantano will face a court-martial that could lead to the death penalty."

And a healthy protest by FReepers to Don Rumsfeld will bring this dog and pony show to an abrupt end with the Marine released and the charges dropped.
This is nothing but a bunch of Barbra Streisand that was brought about by a clymer who didn't like the officer.
Let the accuser PROVE his allegations or suffer a worse fate that Lt. Pantano.
In the meantime, start sending protests to Don Rumsfeld. Make him feel some heat over this and it will come to a swift end.

What a horrible story.
It saddens me to here that on of our troops is getting treated like that.
This character that is claiming he shot those to Iraqis in the back is a traitor,IMO.
Thanks, I'm getting the word to several "old vets" and should generate some emails and phone calls.
Thanks for the ping!
He acted to defend himself and his fellow Marines. The ones he shot WERE TERRORISTS....plain and simple.
He should be given a comendation instead of being brought up on charges.
redrock
Thanks for the ping, Tonk but I get much too upset when I read about things like this. They should be pinning a medal on his chest.
Bump!
BTTT!!!!!!
Thanks, Tonk; thank you all!! This fine Marine is getting screwed and he deserves better.
You guys are the best!!!
We can make sure that Rumsfeld knows we are watching by expressing our outrage. By OUR actions, Lt. Pantano WON'T be Hanoi John'ed!!
This is an outrage.
