Oh my, could this be progress?
The U.S. Marine Corps have charged seven Marines and one sailor in the alleged murder of an Iraqi civilian in April.

"There is sufficient evidence at this point to charge all of them with premeditated murder," Lt.-Col. Darren Margolin told a news conference Wednesday at Camp Pendleton, Calif.

The eight men are also charged with kidnapping, conspiracy and providing false official statements

    here it comes..

    I am sure many military folks have done some horrible things. thats what we get when we through human beings into a land where killing is an everyday event. Thats why war is bad.. this war is more bad as it was completely unnecessary.. sort of a luxury war for the US and England..

    For this luxury there is so much pain suffering and loss that we need more people to blame.. We are somewhat tired of blaming those really responsible.. now we shall spread it out - next up - the people on the ground carrying out the wishes of those really responsible.

    as, this is the next type of casualty...

    Once we completely demonize the entire military population.. who will be next?

    Savages? For fuck's sake, if I were an Iraqi I'd be part of the insurgency too. Most of us would. Goddamn....if any country illegally attacked and occupied us don't you fucking think we'd do similar things as the insurgency?

    how about when bush said in a speech that an IAEA report said Iraq was 6 months away from a nuke and "I don't know what more evidence we need."...which the IAEA NEVER issued a report saying anything close to this...in fact their latest report stated there was NO evidence of them having a program or obtaining anything clandestinely....?

    or rummy and his 'bullet-proof evidence' linking iraq w/ 9/11?

    lol...I've read plenty. But I'll tell ya what, the ten club is honest and ethical and I admit that anything suggested by them or the band is gonna weigh a little more in my decision making than what you hear on Fox fucking news. My previous post has merit and you fucking know it, that's why your only response is to attack me. It's okay though, the good news for you is that God is forgiving and still loves his lost and ignorant children....
