And THEN Yahoo decides to take off the "discuss this" option?
We are in a war! Not in a political correctness crisis! To the government that is prosecuting these men, instead of standing up for them, I am ASHAMED at the lack of support being shown to our guys that are doing what they have been trained to do. When they can no longer get people to join the military and we get everything taken away because everyone is AFRAID to defend us, then what? Also will Yahoo censor this question? They certainly did not give us the option to respond to the news article!

I can not speak about Yahoo censoring their website, but as for the Marines in question, if they are guilty, they do not deserve for the United States to "stand behind them" because they were NOT trained to murder innocent civilians and there is absolutely no possible justification, if the report is true, that would excuse their behavior.
Service members that commit these heinous acts have dishonored their special trust of representing the United States, and, in doing their crimes, have made the situation worst by giving the terrorist a rally call to recruit more terrorist. There is a saying, are we making more terrorist then we're killing?
People need to be afraid that if they commit crimes, especially these heinous crime, they will be prosecuted and serve lengthy prison terms, if not their lifetime, or in the worst of cases, face the death penalty.

My family is a Military family and has been for a long time. My son is an Iraqi veteran, USMC, Things do get crazy during a fire fight or an engagement. But this was a case of out right revenge and murder. This was not a threat. I fully support our troops. The people who commit atrocities only disgrace their service and turn people against us.

There are rules of engagement, and it appears the these Marines significanlty violate them. Imagine you are simply walking out of your home after a party, and suddenly were acosted and attacked by armed men gunning you down. I don't believe you would be happy to be in that confrontation, nor were the Iraqi civilians who were slaughtered in this instance. In every war the innocents are the true victims.

hi Lioness, i attempted to discover "objectified" and "objectification" interior the dictionary and no exhilaration. nicely, i'm no longer precisely specific I understand your queston, yet think of i could have an concept. besides, have you ever heard of the "bell curve"? that's a curve that's formed like a bell and does a reliable pastime of representing information. As for elegance, at one end of the curve we've the least alluring and on the different end the main. the comparable could be authentic for earnings ... poorest on one area and richest on the different. interior the path of the bell we've all of the conventional individuals. i think of what you're saying is authentic, yet in basic terms in basic terms a actuality of existence. we've the great spectrum for the two genders. As for why adult adult males do no longer protest ... i assume they understand that it somewhat is in basic terms the way issues are and protests are unlikely to alter something. wish this enables!

If they dishonored the corps they deserve nothing but a kick
in the face. This is not about defending someone and accidentally
killing a civilian. This is about deliberately murdering innocent
people who had nothing to do with the roadside bomb.
Murderers wearing the uniform are a disgrace to the uniform
and the country it stands for.

Why aren't these people as good at nailing the thousands of terrorists killing each day, like the ones who killed that innocent Catholic nurse after the Pope quoted a statement as we know that referred to Muslims. Well wouldn't that be like Jews going bananas and killing Muslims when pres of Iran says they don't need to exist? Who has been ever allowed to get away with such uncivilized acts?
