So what war were you in?
That's all well and fine, when you're ass isn't in the line of fire.
The reporter is a scumbag. Our brave fighting men are fighting the worst of the worst. For that CS from NBC not to choose sides (Our's) is a disgrace.
Actually, I've been in a couple of wars.
The NBC newsman, I'm guessing, has not been trained for warfighting. His position is from a civilian seeing what he perceived as a needless brutality. He most likely was mistaken, but his allegation has to be thoroughly reviewed.
Not unlike LT(jg) Kerry having seen atrocities (as if that's true) while in Viet Nam and not reporting them immediately. We ain't the badguys! The newsman was not wrong IMHO to report the incident. Likely misguided - much out of his element - but not wrong.
