Accusing Marines for political gain


Stepping back to look at the massacre claims

Well apparently I still can't post, but I am going to write entries anyway.

I've been watching the stories about Haditha and Ishaqi.

Especially the accusations of certain Congressmen.

I am not so foolish as to believe that our servicemen are selfless angels incapable of atrocities. But I do believe that most of those serving in the United States military are honorable. I don't think that they are all "babykillers" just because they chose to serve.

Short of going to Iraq, there is no way to confirm or deny these stories before the military authorities submit their report.

Which means that any comments at this point would be pure speculation.

A point that those unnamed Congressmen know only too well.

And that begs the question, without full information AND without calling for a Congressional investigation, why make the accusations?
