Zenister 0 #278 November 23, 2004 Quote>>i have never heard anyone state that the objective was cleared, and you know what i don't need the news to tell me either way, it was apparent that the objective was not cleared when in the video people were still walking around with their weapons at the high ready. If the objective had already been cleared then they would have already found that the man was still alive.<< the objective had been cleared on Friday by a previous team, all the wounded were known to be there from the previous day.......this team did not even receive definitive fire from that mosque... from http://www.kevinsites.net/ about as eyewitness as you'll get... QuoteThe fifth is partially covered by a blanket and is in the same place and condition he was in on Friday, near a column. He has not been shot again. I look closely at both the dead and the wounded. There don't appear to be any weapons anywhere. "These were the same wounded from yesterday," I say to the lieutenant.....sniped but EVERYONE should go read the first hand account and see if they still believe this to be a 'justified killing'..... After being treated for their wounds on Friday by Navy Corpsman (I personally saw their bandages) the insurgents were going to be transported to the rear when time and circumstances allowed. ____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.

Actually, once you leave an objective after it is cleared, it is no longer clear, unless you leave a security force on that objective. Unfortunately it seems as if this argument has reached a stalemate though, it's obvious that neither side is going to budge so might as well leave it up to the people really deciding his fate.

Zenister 0 #280 November 26, 2004 agreed, we will have to wait to see what the investigation shows.... but we havent seen a single piece of evidence that begins to justify an apparent execution... it is possible that such exists and has yet to be released.....and honestly i'd love for you to be right, but all indications thus far lean against this Marine.____________________________________ Those who fail to learn from the past are simply Doomed.
