		<description>I&#039;ll be damned. Someone else gets it. There will never be peace...EVER until islime ITSELF is completely destroyed. The cult feeds on blood. It always has since that madman and the Devil spawned it. This has been proven time after time after time after time after time, and STILL &quot;decent people&quot; refuse to see it. 

So they plug their ears and close their eyes and say &quot;La la la la la la la&quot; and hope when they open their eyes islime will have gone away or will have agreed to play nice. They are shocked to find that the cult has swallowed up another country and are descending on yet another. STILL the cowards just don&#039;t get it.(BS, they may see it , but are too arrogant, shortsighted, or chicken$#!^ to say so out loud).

But mo-hamhead (piss be upon him) surely understood the iron rule of force and greater force. That is why they deserve to win. The muslime fanatics won&#039;t play by the imaginary ridiculously insane &quot;rules of engagement&quot; 

THERE ARE NO RULES!!!!!!

Why do our &quot;leaders&quot; insist we fight with one hand tied around our balls? WHY? No one else does! Where is the virtue in our boys dying or getting maimed unnecessarily?

Stinking yellow bastards. No wonder the world hates us.</description>

		<description>Allahpundit, it&#039;s great to know that we can go to you to clarify for us what is and what it not Hot Air&#039;s position! 

As with regard to your question as to my sanity, might I remind you, or educated you to the fact that WAR is insane and any attempt to regulate, control, establish rules of engagement, or sanitize it is what is insane!

Sherman knew it and so did Lincoln and &quot;they&quot; thought Sherman insane.  It took Lincoln 3 years to find a general (Grant) who understood. As a result, it cost us over 640,000 causalities and Lincoln his life.

Truman knew it and while it cost several thousand Japanese their lives, it&#039;s estimated that over 1,000,000 lives would have been lost in the invasion of the Japanese Home Islands. But you forget, or don&#039;t want to understand, that TENS OF MILLIONS of American, Australians and JAPANEESE are alive today because of Truman and his understanding of the cost of WAR. That the best way was to make it so horrible that, when it was over, the 4 Horseman would never ride again. But No! Let&#039;s forget about history.

Let&#039;s forget that the First World War was fought and ended humanely, and how many TENS Of MILLIONS of lives did that cost the world in WWII!

Korea was fought and ended humanely, and that cost us Vietnam and will cost is Taiwan one of these days.

The 6 Day War was fought and ended humanly, and it cost the Iranians several million lives in its war with Iraq and we got the and the first Gulf War.

The 1st Gulf War was fought and ended humanely, and it cost us the mess we have on our hands now.

So you go on and sleep well because you are ok with institutional, government approved slaughter the few thousand people, but let&#039;s hang a few Marines because they are human!

Happy Memorial Day</description>

		<description>&quot;So some Iraqi civilians died. So WHAT? War is Hell!&quot;

Hmm. Well, we refuse to identify the enemy. It is &quot;bad&quot; to completely destroy the venomous islime cult. We are not there to win. Winning would mean that we kill the enemy of freedom and all mankind (ISLAM). 

We must &quot;kill nice&quot;. Be reasonable. If we only kill the &quot;bad&quot; muslims, the rest will ignore and forget about  the thousands of verses in the koran that commands them to &quot;fight non-muslims until they are no more.&quot;

We deserve to lose. We can&#039;t fight to win. Don&#039;t you get it?</description>

		<description>Why if this was found out in November, is it coming out three days before the day this country honors our veterans.  I suspect strategy of the media.

The war in this country between liberals and conservatives is hotter than the war on Terror.  From my perspective, we are in a multipronged war/attack on the United States and the Values it was built on.  Those of us who are God centered in our values, conservative in our economics (you eat when you are willing to work) are trying to do the right thing to protect our country with the WOT, but are also being attacked by illegal immigration, cultural penetration by countries unfriendly to us, and socialist/communist values in the political arena, media bias, and indoctrination of our children and university students.

The real enemy is fuzzy, and we don&#039;t really know what we are fighting for. Until we figure that out, we are at risk of defeating ourselves with inefficient focus.  Sometimes I think we have already lost the critical battles already, and it is just a matter of time.

There is still hope, that throught the democratic process, we could turn things around.  But it will take massive education, and empowerment of people who are not in power.

Unfortunately, in this case, the law that we believe in takes a higher priority than the unfortunate circumstances that led to this alleged crime.  Our enemies, especially those in this country, feel that they are above the law.  We are disadvantaged by believing we have to abide by the law we defend.  Our enemies in this country do not feel this constraint.</description>

		<description>[...] UPDATE: The always indispensable Allah says: I meant to post about this last week when Murtha was making the rounds but I got caught up in other things. Yeah, it’s awful and par for the course that he’d pronounce the Marines guilty before the investigation is complete; and yeah, no one’s surprised that he’d exploit the incident to promote a pullout. But it rubbed me the wrong way to watch righty bloggers go ballistic on Murtha while dismissing the underlying allegations with a perfunctory “these are serious charges.” I’m not accusing anyone of not caring, mind you; this is Hot Air, not the Daily Dish. I’m just saying that it’s bad form to kill the messenger when serious malfeasance might be afoot. Not unlike how lefties reacted to the Swift Vets, to take a more benign example. [...]</description>

		<description>IMO: until this whole allegation is properly investigated and examined, the accused Marines should be recalled from that country and assigned to US/mexico border-patrolling.
&lt;i&gt;Waste not, want not - they&#039;ve got essential skills.</description>

		<description>I hope if there was a crime committed, the appropriate justice is served on those responsible.  But the demagoguery we are about to witness is unjustified.  Abu Ghraib + Haditha (potentially) still equates to less than .01% of our troops, the 99.99% should not have their heroism besmirched.  I have no doubt that the left will swing Haditha wildly, striking the reputation of any soldier no matter how brave and honorable.

I am saddened not for the impact this might have on the elections in ’06 or ’08, but for the 99.99% of our Armed Forces who are about to be spat on by the likes of Pelosi, Dean and Reid.  The action I am going to take out of this is to give more to the 99.99%.  They need our support now more than ever.  They need to know there are people who genuinely care about them and appreciate their sacrifice.  This is the most important time to show support for our troops.  Let every criticism from the left be overwhelmed with love from the right.</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I hope if there was a crime committed, the appropriate justice is served on those responsible.  But the demagoguery we are about to witness is unjustified.  Abu Ghraib + Haditha (potentially) still equates to less than .01% of our troops, the 99.99% should not have their heroism besmirched.  I have no doubt that the left will swing Haditha wildly, striking the reputation of any soldier no matter how brave and honorable.</p>
<p>I am saddened not for the impact this might have on the elections in ’06 or ’08, but for the 99.99% of our Armed Forces who are about to be spat on by the likes of Pelosi, Dean and Reid.  The action I am going to take out of this is to give more to the 99.99%.  They need our support now more than ever.  They need to know there are people who genuinely care about them and appreciate their sacrifice.  This is the most important time to show support for our troops.  Let every criticism from the left be overwhelmed with love from the right.</p>

		<description>This is a story which could have happened at any time during the past three years. I&#039;ve sort of been expecting it, as terrible events in war can warp someone&#039;s sense of right and wrong, and anger can take over when troops are faced with brutality everyday. I&#039;m not excusing anyone-as it was said, &quot;Let the chips fall where they may.&quot; But we are not robots, and eventually the training will be broken, discipline drilled into someone will fail, and such events as Haditha will occur.
Don&#039;t let anyone trash the Military in your presense over this. We have a great Military with an important mission. This weekend especially don&#039;t let anyone say a bad thing about our fighting forces. They still deserve our respect and trust.</description>

		<description>Not likely that the shootings were premeditated.  The LA Times article says &quot;The report concludes that a dozen Marines acted improperly after a roadside bomb explosion killed a fellow Marine, Lance Cpl. Miguel Terrazas&quot;.  In the heat of military action, wrong decisions can easily be made especially in urban settings where the enemy hides within the non-combatants as these so-called insurgents do.</description>

		<description>Lets assume for a moment that the accusations are true.

If the killings were &quot;hot blooded&quot;, what penalty would be applied given today&#039;s standards.

And if the killings were &quot;cold blooded&quot;, what would the penalty most likely be given today&#039;s political climate?
