Right, one must slow down and speak in smaller words for you. Noted.
Thank you so much.
I'm saying your cherrypicking your story to attack all of em.
I see. Well then, please put it all "in context" for me.
See you were a tank jockey, so you don't understand combat.... he perceived a threat from house
Really?
That's all he needs. You have the rest of your life to win a gunfight....
Ahhh..... based on the "fact" that he saw
no muzzle flashes from those houses or
any people entering them.
Is that how you define a "perceived threat"?
i'm just saying you like to pick "facts" that match your agenda, and ignore other facts that show you to be full of it as you are usually.
Please educate me, oh wise soldier. Please put together all those cherry picked facts into a picture that justifies that massacre.
Truth? the fact that you weren't there, nor are you privy to all the information and you convict them based on your crappy politics....
I'm just going by what your "brothers" said. Under oath.
How is any of that cherry picked?
"crappy politics"? Here's what is "crappy" about this sad story. SSgt Frank Wuterich was due to get out of the service. He was an instructor in Hawaii with absolutely zero combat experience. But, like so many little boys who only get to "play" soldier, he wanted to "see war". So, they sent him over to Iraq. Because of his rank and time in grade he was made a squad leader. He was now responsible for the lives of other men. They could have been you, or your brother or son or a close friend. He was now responsible for their lives.
He probably got all shook up in his first fire fight and lost it. I'm sure he noticed the difference between faking it, in his Hawaii training classes, and the real thing. He lied to his superiors, several times, about what happened. He killed those men next to their car straight on. Those men never tried to run away.
This guy had no business being in Iraq. His superiors should have known this. They probably had their hands tied because those idiots of yours in the white house thought we could win this ware with just a few battalions. This was the bigger picture Murtha was trying to get across. But, BushCo, and people like you, didn't want to hear that they... oh God... made mistakes!
I await your clarifications.
