Here's one that few have considered. No.1 This so called war on terror should be defined with a little more accuracy. Lets first consider that this was not an attack (9-11) by a nation but rather a bunch of thugs who have no concern for life. This should be handled by Interpol and not the miltary. This unconscionable act of cowardice should be considered what it is international MURDER. Ergo - INTERPOL not the military.
Now then,#2, lets consider our troops in harms way. Specfically the Sgt. allegedly involved in five murders of his own. Lets further consider Lt. Calley in Nahm, further those Marines (since found not guilty) in Iraq. I feel that something needs to be said in defense of any soldier that commits what we back here in our comfortable little recliners refer to as despicable acts.
I think that those who would sit in judgment of our troops in combat (not one tour of duty but  three or more)should stop and consider that it is  not a normal thing to kill anyone, I mean anyone, without it affecting ones  psyche. I am appaled when  I see the media overplaying this for the grandstanding purpose of selling air time or ink. Tell you what, boys and girls - YOU go and do what these boys are be commanded to do day after day and see how you react to life after (or during) combat.
Lets just back the hell off! Lets LEAVE OUR TROOPS ALONE!!!
