Working to prove Murtha’s allegations of behalf of the aroused media is the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (as uncovered by Chickenhawk Express, the former-employer of Murtha’s policy director, Gabrielle Carruth)

IMHO, Gabrelle Carruth is the link to the question we have all been asking the past 18 months...where did Murtha get the (mis) information that allowed him to condemn these Marines?

Once Hagee denied briefing Murtha, prior to his guilty pronouncement of our Marines, the scent became cold. With Chickenhawks discovery of Gabrielle on Murtha's payroll and her background with the NCIS, the scent was picked up once again.

Murtha >> Gabrielle Carruth, former NCIS agent >> Gabrielle's husband, Mr. Carruth, current NCIS agent >> NCIS, responsible for the investigations >> Donald Winter, SecNav, head of NCIS >> Murtha

Murtha at the beginning and Murtha at the end...interesting.
How else could he claim:
"But you will see when the investigation is done that this was an overreaction by our troops"

The fix was in...the Marines did not stand a chance.

BUMP, and Happy Thanksgiving to you.

“Thankful for a nation of liberty where these injuctices can be aired and provided the opportunity for the redress that they deserve. In most places in the world that would not be the case.

Thankful for the Hand of Providence that still watches over this blessed land despite the difficulties we face, and despite those among us who would destroy the very fabric and foundation of morality it is based upon,

Thankful to live in the most propserous, healthiest, most giving nation on earth where each of us still has the opportunity to make of ourselves whatever it is we choose.

Thankful for the heroes among us, like these Marines, who have sacrificed so much for our blessings of liberty.

Thankful for family and friends who stand with us through thick and thin and bless our lives each day.

...and most of all, thankful for a merciful Savior who has Himself paid the price to heal and be the balm and salve to whatever wounds we suffer in this life...wherever we are, whoever we are, if we will but turn to Him.”

BUMP

Happy Thanksgiving, Jeff.

No ping list ping.

Happy Thanksgiving to all, especially ‘the boys’ in the box and their families.

Support for our troops is never off-topic, Thombo. And you’re so right. If every Freeper would visit the links above and pony up ten or twenty bucks, these Marines would get the defense they deserve.

These men need our help. A while back i sent a money order to the TMLC. Not much,but what i could afford. If other Freepers could send $10 or $20 it would be a lot of help. These are good people fighting the good fight-while at the same time being defamed and slandered by the likes of Murtha....

You are so right, Thombo2. Thanks for your donation, I will match that. Today is a day to say thank you to those who have served in our names and give them a fighting chance in their current trials.

Thank you “Nat” for writing this and “Red” for posting it. A super article on how the lives of all the Haditha Marines and their families have been affected by these false accusations. Thank all of you for your support and encouragement. We couldn’t make it without you.

I’ve had several persons ask me at social functions as to where they might send charitable contributions for different causes for Marines deployed, and I’ve encouraged them to support the Haditha Marines in their judicial defense.

IMHO, those in harm’s way are better represented by the defense of those who have remained obedient under testing than by those who seek to find fault in their service.
