Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.), a former Army lieutenant colonel, sends THE WEEKLY STANDARD an email commenting on the Marines' video, and has given us permission to publish it.
“I have sat back and assessed the incident with the video of our Marines urinating on Taliban corpses. I do not recall any self-righteous indignation when our Delta snipers Shugart and Gordon had their bodies dragged through Mogadishu. Neither do I recall media outrage and condemnation of our Blackwater security contractors being killed, their bodies burned, and hung from a bridge in Fallujah.
“All these over-emotional pundits and armchair quarterbacks need to chill. Does anyone remember the two Soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division who were beheaded and gutted in Iraq?
“The Marines were wrong. Give them a maximum punishment under field grade level Article 15 (non-judicial punishment), place a General Officer level letter of reprimand in their personnel file, and have them in full dress uniform stand before their Battalion, each personally apologize to God, Country, and Corps videotaped and conclude by singing the full US Marine Corps Hymn without a teleprompter.
“As for everyone else, unless you have been shot at by the Taliban, shut your mouth, war is hell.”

Sounds to me like a Blue Falcon (Buddy Fu_ker for those that don't know what it means) that posted it. But as for the ones secreting urinary fluids I say give them a hand shake and an attaboy with a promotion. ______________________ If You Can't Stand Behind Our Troops, Feel Free To Stand Infront of Them! |

thats the Dragon we all know and love so well.........master of tact and diplomacy, and subtle language ! I wouldn't even watch the video, it would give the poster credibility that he don't deserve....if it was my son on the video, i'd give him a kick in the ass...not for peeing, but for getting caught on camera ______________________ The best arguement against democracy is a five minute conversation with the average voter |
