This is same old #, noting different, except these marines were dumb enough t let someone do a video.
The one where they whack off the guys weenier and put it in his mouth is much worse, these people are not human, several levels below. Your future Masters.
I have sat back and assessed the incident with the video of our Marines urinating on Taliban corpses. I do not recall any self-righteous indignation when our Delta snipers Shugart and Gordon had their bodies dragged through Mogadishu. Neither do I recall media outrage and condemnation of our Blackwater security contractors being killed, their bodies burned, and hung from a bridge in Fallujah.
“All these over-emotional pundits and armchair quarterbacks need to chill. Does anyone remember the two Soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division who were beheaded and gutted in Iraq?
“The Marines were wrong. Give them a maximum punishment under field grade level Article 15 (non-judicial punishment), place a General Officer level letter of reprimand in their personnel file, and have them in full dress uniform stand before their Battalion, each personally apologize to God, Country, and Corps videotaped and conclude by singing the full US Marine Corps Hymn without a teleprompter.

The sad part is I've seen much worse. Has anyone seen the video of marines blowing up a dog on the street in afghanistan or Iraq (can't remember where it was)?

Pretty disgusting, but I don't think the Taliban are in any position to be taking a high ground when it comes to morals. this is why our forces need to behave as civilised humans, we are meant to be the good guys. We can't be in a position where the taliban can take such a stance.
Anyway can someone remind me why we are still in Afghanistan? Surely not just to offend the occupied.edit on 12-1-2012 by woodwardjnr because: (no reason given)

Imagine what there going to do if they ever get their hands on an american body..
...even a live one!
They already do.
The Taliban are still holding Bowe Bergdahl. He has been held by the Taliban for about 2 years now. He was captured in Afghanistan when he left the base without a weapon / body armor.
