1. support the troops, indeed. reporting this makes you a traitor, you know
why do you hate Murika so much?


Of course, this story was confirmed repeatedly throughout the muddle east. Add to that the Lebanon fiasco, and guess where that leaves the US.

Throw the book at these guys. I hope we don't start doing a Vietnam and start blaming the troops for BushCo's idiocy.

We have plenty of crime here in America but we don't think every American should be in prison because of it.

4. There's a story that's gotten back-burner status.
I almost forgot about Haditha, wouldn't that make Karl proud?

So many crimes, so little time, and so few who give a shit.

6. REPORT--Damning Evidence in deaths of 24 civilians
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/14150687/

WASHINGTON - Evidence collected on the deaths of 24 Iraqis in Haditha supports accusations that U.S. Marines deliberately shot the civilians, including unarmed women and children, a Pentagon official said Wednesday.

Agents of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service have completed their initial work on the incident last November, but may be asked to probe further as Marine Corps and Navy prosecutors review the evidence and determine whether to recommend criminal charges, according to two Pentagon officials who discussed the matter on condition of anonymity.

----------------------

Among the other cases of alleged deliberate killings of Iraqi civilians, eight Marines have been charged with premeditated murder and other criminal acts in connection with the killing of an Iraqi man in Hamdania on April 26. Also, five soldiers and a former soldier have been charged in the March 12 rape-slaying of a young Iraqi woman and the killings of her relatives in Mahmoudiya.

10. That Swiftboat lawsuit against Murtha just took a BIIIIG hit
I hope they're too stupid to just drop it. I want to see them turned into mincemeat.
