It was illegal for this little Jughead to talk about this to the press. Hopefully, if he really is in the Marines, they've carted his goatsmelling ass off to the brig.

24 innocent people may have been killed, and you're worried that one of the Marines recovering the bodies talked to the press?

Them's screwed up priorities there, bud.

How about having someone that wasn't there talking to the press could screw up the inevstigation, or do you even care if we have an investigation at all?

Let's just try them in the press.

"if" ... "may" are two good GD reasons why nobody should be specualting, and that includes you. Let the facts come out and justice take it's course. Condemning anybody right now does nothing but aid the enemy

[mystery-ak]

Let the military handle the investigation, they will get to the bottom of it and until then these Marines are innocent...

[roverman2K6]

you sir are an accessory to this attack on our troops.
this is war, people get killed.
Are you calling B17 bomber pilots criminals for killing thousands of civvies
idiot

[FlingWingFlyer]

So you've convicted the Marines too. Bud? If that "marine" was in my unit, he'd be in the brig. Talking to the press about something he knows absolutely nothing about is chicken----. Dat you Jesse?

Them's screwed up priorities there, bud.

You are wrong on this one, Sink. I understand where you are coming from, but we are still at war, and anything that aids our enemy is less important then the objective, which is to win this war with a minimum of casualties on both sides. The press can only hurt that goal with their sensationalism and bias.

Soldiers are human beings who can make mistakes, but the media will only use this incident for their own biased objectives. No soldier should assist the media, because ultimately it works to embolden the enemy and their defenders on the left.

Good evening.
"Them's screwed up priorities there, bud."

Considering the record of the MSM when it comes to making up facts and it's clear bias when it comes to the WOT, I would say that the guy talking to the press is something to worry about.

Why do you automatically assume that he is telling the truth or that he understands correctly what he saw. The article says that his buddy from Novato had just been killed and he was badly traumatized when he was told to move the bodies of dead Iraqis, not that he saw them killed. Why do you assume 24 "innocent" people died? They could just as easily have been unlucky shields.

Did I read correctly that the Lance Corporal is home and in the care of a civilian shrink?

I'm not saying there wasn't a massacre committed by US troops, but I will believe it when it is proved to me, not when Murtha and the Mercury-News tell me was.
