On the front line we expect combat troops to make sacrifices for the cause. Some REMF obviously put their career above the objectives of winning the war. Any deaths or injuries committed by the funeral attendees in on the hands of those who did not sieze the moment.

I'm sure that there were cemeteries in Berlin.

"During the observation of the group over a significant period of time, it was determined that the group was located on the grounds of (the) cemetery and were likely conducting a funeral for Taliban insurgents killed in a coalition operation nearby earlier in the day," the statement said. "A decision was made not to strike this group of insurgents at that specific location and time."

They fail to mention that firing on a cemetery is against the military rule book of engagement

I'm wondering how old that rule is or if it's part of the news rules that McCain wanted

Blame it on Murtha's new Global Test. Do you want to deal with the sh_t you'll hear from the MSM or will you do a 'clinton'? "Never mind" "Maybe next time"

..but decided not to after determining they were on the grounds of a cemetery.

What? Were they afraid of killing the residents.

Certainly they weren't afraid of killing the Taliban...were they??

The U.S. military acknowledged Wednesday that it considered bombing a group of more than 100 Taliban insurgents in southern Afghanistan but decided not to after determining they were on the grounds of a cemetery.

Do they think they are fighting the Trojan War?

holy sh#t.... this world is f#cking crazy...

each and everyone of those men are going to go out and try to kill my brothers, my friends, my family that are overseas...

if we could have zapped those little bast#rds while they were all standing in formation and didn't'...that's it.... pull out. Defend the home land and screw this Bull Sh#t, lying sack of sh#t war we are involved in.

I'm no pussy, I've eaten meat and done the deed. But if we've got such mealy mouthed butt munchers looking at law books instead of targeting and destroying the enemy... then let's just call it what it is... a huge PR scam and WASTE OF MARINES, Army and other armed forces.

Men are dying with these little bast#rds planting IED's and we're running around worried about "rules of engagement"...

We've got pussies covering their ass#s in charge of the men in the field and I can't even think straight right now.... GAWD!!!!

WE ARE AT WAR!!!! That means you kill and destroy everything that can be used against you. EVERYTHING.

Are our "leaders" in the field so f#cked up that they think we'll "lose" the hearts and minds if we frag out a cemetery....

Am I the only one that thinks this is BS!!!!??????

Give me my blood pressure medicine, a six pack of Shiner Blond Beer and look at the middle finger of both hands as I salute this ignorant execution of the war and the backstabbing REMF's that wouldn't know their D#ck from a K-Bar.

The U.S. military acknowledged Wednesday that it considered bombing a group of more than 100 Taliban insurgents in southern Afghanistan but decided not to after determining they were on the grounds of a cemetery which would violate the Marquess of Queensbury's Rule Number 13. "A terrorist in a graveyard is considered safe and if struck is entitled to the damages in U.S and world courts."

Great, now every terrorist planning session/meeting will be conducted in a cemetary.

Too bad it wasn't a wedding, they'd be meat pudding, har de har har.
