Why is it so quite about the kiilings in Haditha?
I do not know about you but to me this is completly disgusting that no one is really talking about the news that came out yesterday about the Haditha incident. According to reports our Troops killed 24 Innocent unarmed civilians. Let me repeat that our marines KILLED 24 INNOCENT CIVILIANS but yet I have not read much about it.
This story to me goes to the heart of the matter when you are talking about this war and leadership in this country. It shows that no one really knows what they are doing and they are not getting the leadership from above to keep them from committing vile acts of murder.
Not only do these marines belong in jail (and they will be lucky if they do not wind up in an Iraqi jail) but the people who lead them need to go to jail also. Also the people who tried to cover this story up deserve to lose their jobs and spend sometime in jail.
Thankfully we have people like Congressman Murtha who heard about the incident and pushed and pushed for a full investigation that from the evidence shows that he was correct. And what does the Congressman get for his efforts, yes thats right, he gets sued by one of the marines for defaming him in public. Check out ths story at http://www.msnbc.msn.com/... . I give this Marine credit for one thing he has balls, not only did he help kill 24 innocent civilians but he has the ball to sue a person for pointing out what he did.
That all I have on this, What do you think?
