Yes. They were lined up for a good chance to be taken out by a missile. I think it's to late trying to fight this PC war.

I ain't buying it. I say we're just setting them up to think they can use cemeteries as safe spots.

Shhhhh.

Maybe it should be kudos to the leaker and jail time to the one that refused to bomb...

Agreed. I thank the leaker.

Since Islamo-fascists keep telling us how much they love death, a cemetary would be the perfect place to bomb them - save them the trouble of transporting the terrorist remains to the graveyard......

It's investigating the leak, but not the policy?!

Don't really see how this leak is wrong. It exposed the higher up's idiocy for nto attacking. No leak and nobody would have ever known.

There is that aspect to it, but it's still not a good idea. The Taliban/AQ now have a much clearer understanding of our predator drones abilities. They won't be seen standing outdoors in tight formation ever again.

In addition, the fact that the drone was there might expose an operative who told the drone where to be.

Well, unless it's at a cemetery.

Obviously.

I was pointing out why it also wasn't a good idea to release the picture after making the stupid decision to not fire the missle.

how about, they don't want to be court martialed ...

When we stop prosecuting soldiers for doing their jobs then we'd have soldiers willing to take chances.

Islamic terrorists promising to conquer America prior to murdering all Christians and Jews therein.

"Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith,
but to become dominant. The Qur'an should be the highest authority in America,
and Islam the only accepted religion on earth
"

--Omar Ahmed, Chairman of the Board of CAIR (Council of American Islamic Relations), San Ramon Valley Herald, July 1998


Qur’an 8:12 “I shall terrorize the infidels.
So wound their bodies and incapacitate them
because they oppose Allah and His Apostle.”

Qur’an 8:57 “If you gain mastery over them in battle,
inflict such a defeat as would terrorize them,
so that they would learn a lesson and be warned.”

==I'm thinking we should change the rules of engagement. Terrorists don't play by these rules.==

Here's an interesting essay from American Digest:

"RULES? IN A KNIFE FIGHT?": Redrafting the Rules of Engagement in the First Terrorist War"

Harvey Logan: Rules? In a knife fight? No rules.
[Butch immediately kicks Harvey in the groin]
Butch Cassidy: Well, if there aint' going to be any rules, let's get the fight started.
-- Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid

"You hear me talkin', hillbilly boy? I ain't through with you by a damn sight.
I'ma get medieval on your ass."
-- Pulp Fiction

By rote and by ritual most Americans [claim] to assert that they "Support our troops." But as we all know, yet seldom admit, America has more of the known reserves of the world's bullshit than the Saudis have oil. The truth of the matter is that far too many Americans are becoming far too interested in our troops behaving correctly than actually supporting and sustaining them. They blather support out of one orifice while spewing disdain from the other. We hear these clapped-out flatulators daily at work, on the street, and over the tube of the boobs. I don't know about you, but for me these hyperventilating hypocrites are beginning to gripe my hindquarters big time...

Right, over 6 yrs and a war, and no one realised this policy was in effect!!??

The phrase "there's a first time for everything" comes to mind. Probably we never had an opportunity like this until now.

And now, thanks to the lamestream press and a soldier who didn't think, we probably won't ever have it again.

"It is an operational security issue, and the photo was released at an inappropriate level," Lawrence told The Associated Press. "Inquiries are being made into how it was released."

Translation: the liberal-law-school JAGs are peeved that this latest of their many attempts to aid the enemy was exposed.

Believe me, stuff like this happens ALL the time. Most JAGs spend every working hour trying to either screw any troop or leader who is prosecuting the war effectively, or release, aid or defend every scumbag who would cut your childrens' throats if he got a chance -- in other words, the same crap they'll do after their tours when they're lawyers on the outside.

There are too many of them, they have too much influence, and they are poisoned by the hard-left atmosphere in the law schools.

Frankly, we ought to strap the JAGs on the predators and let 'em drop them on the enemy. Excuse me, on the other enemy.
