Just a heads up...before the Far Left here and elsewhere starts the spin machine and defines the entire war around it.
Since you can bet your ass if they can demonize the US solder in a blanket manner without having to say it directly they will.

Knowing that guilt before innocence is their mantra I do not even suspect they will wait to...
1. Know anything definitive of the event.
2. Bother to care if how they protray it will be real or not.
3. Have any willingness to wait for a court of law to determine if anything did occur and if so that it was a crime.

Well thanks for the heads up while not providing any details about what the hell you are talking about. I'm sure this will make a big difference whenever we find out whatever it is you are referring to. (looks for a rolling eye smile)

Yep I'm not giving any specifics for a few reason 2 of them being...

1. You will know what I am referring to the moment you see/read/hear of it and that is almost assured to occur.

2. I don't know all the facts just the very basics. So I don't see a reason to put up unsubstantiated information so that people who know absolutely nothing can use it to bash like they would.



I'm just saying a round of likely BS overhyped drama and lying is about to hit here and elsewhere as the far left websites pickup on this and their followers begin to propogandize the message across the media and internet.

Murtha should be voted out of office. His ham-handed tactics are just grandstanding.

Default Why

Don't know why these soldiers would do this. Sure they were attacked, but what I read about the incident, sounds like they then "got back" by murdering woman and children.

However, I also don't know why Murtha is escalating this. Yes it was initially covered up. If he was uncovering it, then fine. But it was already uncovered and an investigation started a while ago. So unless he thinks the investigation is going to cover it up again, I don't know why he is getting involved at the congressional level.

The US doesnt 'believe' in war crimes, and will not accept the International Court which prosecutes same (now I wonder why that is )....its called a 'free hand' to.....

Doesn't the fact that this is seriously being investigated by the DoD mean that there may at least be *some* credibility to the story...?

Dismissing this ahead of time because "you know how those gutless liberals will try to spin it" seems just as reactionary as what you are worried about.

Doesn't it also speak to the fact that it is not condoned as SOP?

The problem with the liberal spin is that they make an episode such as this into the rule rather than the exception.

IF what is alleged occured you will hear about it will due to the fact that it is being investigated by the military before anyone said anything.

I'm not dismissing it at all.
All I did was say beware the far left and such is about to lie, distort, and propagandize a story for their own goals....IF you do not believe they wil then you've been living a sheltered life for these past few years.
