Weren't 3 other insurgents killed after the Marine killed the one on tape?
Didn't I remember that the embedded NBC reporter (Sikes?) told AP that after he turned off the camera andother three (maybe including the one begging for his life with the plea: " information!"

Why has everyone forgotten this? Because we don't want to remember? I sure makes thhose defending the Marine look really foolish. Now they're defending not just murder but multiple murderers when it had to become increasingly apparant the the insurgents posed no threat to that patrol.

2. Yes and they'll all get a nice Christian burial
Since a Muslim one will be out of the question after the autopsies done

3. Good. I'd seen that thread title but it didn't connect. Why
are the t.v. idiots forgetting to mention the other three when they make their point? Well . . . I guess it's all too pathetically obvious.

At least it's still in the news, and THAT's good news!

4. Hey, if they can do autopsies on tigers...
that have been dead for a year...

You know, we've lost a hundred or so troops in the last week and a half. You'd think the coroner's would be awfully busy.
