[MLUG - DISCUSSION] Another Rant

["F Vernon Green" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

Since we are on the subject and I feel like ranting a little bit, I need a
minute to unload on those soldiers that were posing with the captured
Iraqis.

How can anyone who has seen the suffering of the Iraqi people turn around
and do the same thing to the people they captured? This is sickening and I
hope each and every one of these people get to spend the rest of their lives
in Leavenworth Kansas.

Especially that female soldier grinning all ear to ear with her thumb in the
air. What, shall I say the "b" word, needs to be made a serious example of. 

I remember a little scandal called "Tailhook" where a bunch of female flyers
screamed about being sexually harassed. Well what do you think would happen
to the poor male trooper that posed like that in front of a captured female
Iraqi? Women groups all throughout the US would be up in arms. Where are
they now? 

Oh, I am sure we will get the token, "We're shocked, we should investigate"
yadda yadda yadda. They should be calling for this female soldiers head on a
plate.

I would give the rest of this year's salary to be the commanding officer of
one of these soldiers, or even better yet, sitting on the jury when these
soldiers are tried.

I have no love lost for the people that were captured, I would not shed a
tear had they been beaten to within an inch of their life, or even beaten to
death, I have no problem with that, but to humiliate them, pose in front of
them and treat them in such an undignified matter sickens me and I hope and
pray that the government makes serious examples out of every person
involved.
