Time to string the bastard up.

We may not be at war with Islam, but we should realize Islam is at war with us.

I'm really upset too. I wonder if the military has taken anytime to try to find whacko terrorists from within? Enemy within.Do they have the tools to watch out for people like this? How many more terrorists are within their camps?

Jim Lacey just reported in a phone interview on Fox that he believes the motive was "a misplaced belief in his Muslim faith". He also said that two of the injuries was very serious including the one that died.

Too fast, Pilgrim!

They have to follow the Code of Military Justice.
He has confessed. He will be charged.
He will be provided an military attorney.
He will be given a court-martial.
He will be tried before a panel of officers.
He will be found guilty of several counts of murder and/or attempted murder.
He will be busted in rank.
And he will be very likely shot by firing squad in Kuwait or Iraq.

He will never see his family or friends again. His name will be a disgrace to the Army and to the 101st.

(Until the sniper terrorists in maryland)..but from within the troops..how many more are waiting..they're takin orders from bin laden IMHO.

"a misplaced belief in his Muslim faith".

I heard that. They have been tip toeing around this all night and will continue to do so. Lacey will be muzzled.

My daughter had the honor of reading this poem at her school's Veteran's Day ceremony this year. I think it's a beautiful tribute.

Fallen

By Ray Boltz

He stood beside his daddy
And watched the solders marching by
It was Veteran's Day and he wondered
Why there were tears in daddy's eyes
Later they laid flowers beside a monument of stone
He said "My daddy went to fight
And didn't make it home"

Fallen not forgotten
He was a hero
He stood so tall
And forever we will remember
With honor and glory
He gave his all

They left behind their families
And the towns where they were born
For the rice paddies of Vietnam
And the sands of Desert Storm
They were soldiers in Korea
And World War One and World War Two
They paid the price
Some gave their lives
And they fought for me and you

Fallen not forgotten
They were the heroes
Who stood so tall
And forever we will remember
With honor and glory
They gave their all

Now freedom is a blessing
But freedom has a price
And we must remember those
Who paid it with their lives

Remember the
Fallen not forgotten
They were the heroes
Who stood so tall
And forever we will remember
With honor and glory
They gave their all

Fallen not forgotten
They were the heroes
Who stood so tall
And forever we will remember
With honor and glory
They gave their all

The firing squad is too good for him. They should use a grenade instead. Scumbag traitors like this piss me off. Thank God the Code of Military Justice applies and not the Federal Rules of Criminal Proceedure, where they would concoct some cockamamie insanity plea and it would take a few years to execute this treasonous bastard.

Just got through watching FOX.

Obvioulsy a black Muslim...whether American born or a West African born immigrant I couldn't say.

He is with an engineering attachment with the 101st.

Of the wounded several looked very serious. One has died sadly. Several others seriously wounded.

The perp was striking out at brigade leaders.

One of the wounded was a woman (so much for no women in combat eh?)

He appeared to be striking out in some misguided interpretation of his religious convictions.

ALL THAT ACCORDING TO A TIME REPORTER ON THE SCENE WHO WAS IN THE TENT WITH THE WOMAN WHO WAS INJURED BY FRAGMENTS>

Having these loons in our combat units is idiocy...PC run amok as usual as costing lives sadly.

I got Lacey saying it was his opinion the guy was "striking out as an interpretation of his Muslim faith."

That's the ONLY interpretation of the Muslim faith.

Jim Lacy from Time Magazine was sleeping in an adjacent tent to the one's that were attacked. He reported that the suspect has an Arabic-sounding last name, he's Muslim and was unusually quiet and nervous in the last few days. Lacy said he didn't believe the "resentment" story because he was trying to kill officers who were not in his chain of command.

His name will be earsed from the Honerable 101st Airborne tah fell before, after, and because of him.

God rest and welcome the victim of his treachery and see over the others in their time of need.

Part of me believes that maybe that plastic grinding machine that Saddam is said to have used to kill some of his opponents ought to be kept active for just a little while longer.

You're sadly probably correct.

They could take a few cues from our Philipine expeditions 100 years ago about how to deal with errant Muslims.

Just hear Aaron Brwon spin this incident as an 'embarrassment for the military'....no mention of Muslim connection....acted as if this was a soldier who cracked up under pressure!

He also said that embedded reporters made it impossible for the military to keep the story under raps!

What an outrage!

but from within the troops

Are you old enough to remember Viet Nam. There was a common practice there called fragging. It referred to throwing a fragmentation grenade at one's superior officer. I guess that war does funny things to people's heads.
