    What's with this cat stevens fellow anyway?... he tryin to recruit people against america?

    Who cares? Not me. This isn't America. America no longer exists. America was a nation that was defined by a constitution. Our constitution is no longer in effect- it's nothing but a goddamned piece of paper now, and according to multiple rulings by high courts, it's simply no longer in effect.

    From to-days news: "What we're seeing more of now, and these incidents will increase monthly, is the end result of fuzzy, imprecise national direction combined with situational ethics at the highest levels of this government," said retired Air Force Col. Mike Turner, a former planner at the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

    So get ready formore of the same.
    Already there are more reports coming in of brutal treatment and bald-faced murder of Iraqi civilian non-combatents by U.S. troops, shot down in cold blood for the crime of living in a country a deraged imbicile decieded to rape and rob.

    Al-Maliki tired of US excuses
    Source
    Wednesday 31 May 2006, 0:55 Makka Time, 21:55 GMT
    Iraq's prime minister has said his patience was wearing thin with excuses from US troops that they killed civilians by mistake, and his government would investigate the civilian deaths in Haditha.
    ____________________________________________________


    Nuri al-Maliki said on Tuesday that "there is a limit to the acceptable excuses". "Yes a mistake may happen but there is an acceptable limit to mistakes," al-Maliki said, when asked about a US investigation into the deaths of 24 Iraqis in the western town last November. "We are worried about the increase in 'mistakes'. I am not saying that they are intentional. But it is worrying for us," he added."We emphasise that our forces, that multinational forces, will respect human rights, the rights of the Iraqi citizen," al-Maliki told the BBC through an interpreter."It is not justifiable that a family is killed because someone is fighting terrorists. We have to be more specific and more careful." In Washington, the White House pledged on Tuesday that the public would be told everything learned during a defence department investigation into the events in Haditha.The killings there have led US commentators to make comparisons with the March 16, 1968, killing of unarmed civilians by US troops in the Vietnamese village of My Lai.
    ______________________________________________
    Tony Snow, the White House spokesman, said the defence department was investigating the incident and that he had been assured that "when this comes out, all the details will be made available to the public, so we'll have a picture of what happened". The three officers who have been relieved of command from the marine battalion involved are not targets of investigations, Paul Hackett, a lawyer for one of officers said on Tuesday.Instead, about a dozen enlisted marines - the highest ranking among them a staff sergeant - are being investigated, Hackett said.

    _______________________________________________
    Other operations

    Al-Maliki said his own government would probe not just Haditha but other cases: "We will ask for answers not only about Haditha but about any operation ... in which killing happened by mistake and we will hold those who did it responsible."Noting a probe into the deaths of people in a US-Iraqi raid on a Baghdad mosque in March, he added: "We will use our authority since we are responsible for protecting the Iraqi people, and we are elected by people... Those who kill intentionally or through negligence should be tried."

    According to news services, the events in Haditha have not sparked the kind of outrage that is has here, and throughout most of the rest of the world.

    The reason: they Iraqi people know, from first-hand experience, that this sort of atrocity is committed against them by the U.S. frequently. It terms of overall dead, Haditha is not the biggest war crime the U.S. has comitted against the civilian population.
    I don't remember the date, but I believe it was about a year after PetroWar II began that the U.S. bombed a wedding party, killing I believe about 40 people.
    Of course the U.S. alleged that they bombed an "insurgent stronghold" but reporters who visited the site brought back video that proved it was indeed a wedding party.

    When my cousin returned from Viet Nam, shortly after the news of My Lai broke, he told me that there were lots of My Lai's, inotherwords, My Lai was not an isolated incident.

    I'm interested in seeing what kind of punishment the people responsible will recieve. Lt. Calley, responsible for the My Lai atrocity in which 500 people were killed and many women & children were raped just prior to being murdered, recieved 3 years of house arrest, 2 or 3 days for every person murdered, by him personally and under his command.
    At least 1 soldier admitted he raped a small child, then when he was done with her, tossed her in the air and "caught" her on his bayonet. Nothing happened to him.

    Is it any wonder that returning soldiers were called "baby killers" and spat upon by people?

    No, what angers me is that people rejoice when a few creeps in the army commit war crimes, while they ignore all the progress that the other 99% of the troops made there, and the thousands of friends they have made with the Iraqi people. (I KNOW this, I have been spoken to by many troops returning from Iraq that they made many friends there, and most of the Iraqi people are glad we liberated them!)

    Do people honestly think ALL of the troops there are commiting war crimes? Bullocks.

    I agree with your first part. All military persons are not monsters.

    However, as far as "progress". I'd use our progress in Vietnam as a good example.
