Don't you think it would be prudent to wait until the charges that are filed against these men are either dropped or the case has run it's course?

NO I DO NOT!

All charges should be dropped.

They risked their lives to capture the leader of the attack that killed these

American civilian contractors and instead of a medal they get a prosecution???

I have more use for a foaming at the mouth rabid dog than I do a present day Democrat, at least with the dog you can shoot it and put it out of it's misery while protecting innocent children but with democrats all you can do is try to expose what a lousy, two-timing, double-dealing pack of thieves and liars they really are.

But what do you really think? Stop holding back, it's not good for you.

so I read today that one Navy guy testified he saw one Seal punch the prisoner. All this is over one punch and a bloody lip? To end the careers of 3 of our best warriors over this is beyond words

should have just shot him

In response to the original topic, this is sickening to think they are facing criminal charges...

It's pretty sad to think American soldiers can get in trouble for punching American murdering terrorists. Hope the others are off the hook soon.

While it has been taken too far, we still have to uphold international law, at least for the sake of appearances.

All the more reason to shoot the guy immediately. He's an American killing terrorist. We should simply be able to kill him without having to explain to anyone why.

I agree with the sentiment, but someone has to uphold the international laws of war and American soldiers have to live by the code of conduct. While it seems unfair to our soldiers and overly humane to the enemy, there is a point at which the bad guys are no longer combatants. If we are going to discard the current laws of war, we need to discard them all. In total war, you might see some slippery slope, but in this case we simply shouldn't.

Appearances for whom exactly?

For everyone else that is a signatory to the current international law of war. I realize that AQ isn't a party to the doc, but that doesn't exonerate us for breaking those laws. I honestly, as a former soldier, hate it, but it's part of what sets us apart from the godless hordes who want to make us out to be the bad guys. We fail in this a lot, but spend a lot of time trying to get it right.

I understand what you're saying, but I think there's a line between enemy soldiers and terrorists.

And besides, why would we honor navy seals just because they're in a subcommittee? :p

to be fair, the SEALs themselves requested courts marshal as opposed to Article 15s.

Can't say that I blame them, accepting an Article 15 is an admission of guilt.

US clears 2nd Navy SEAL in Iraqi abuse case

Two cleared, one to go.

Petty Officer 1st Class Julio Huertas, 29, of Blue Island, Ill., was acquitted by a six-member U.S. military jury at Camp Victory in Baghdad on Thursday April 22.

The court martial of Petty Officer 2nd Class Matthew McCabe of Perrysburg, Ohio, is scheduled to be held May 3 in Virginia.

Support The SEALs | Demand the Charges Be Dropped Against Our Brave Fighting Men


The ones who really need to be court marshalled are the ones bringing these frivilous charges, in this and other cases.

The Navy Judge Advocate General’s Corps needs a good cleaning out.

Maybe someday we will elect a president with the balls and good sense to do so.
