[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 709465, member: 3099"] Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki declared the deaths "un-justified". - Reported 5/30/2006. President Bush promised to disclose the results of the investigation. - Reported 6/01/2006. The original investigator recommended that no charges be filed. A general then takes it upon himself to see that charges are filed. Can you read the tea leaves here? Lets review: 1 acquittal; 6 people have the charges dropped completely; and 1 has charges reduced and they are the only charges remaining. And isn't it ironic that De La Cruz was one of those that had all charges dropped? A little bone to nibble on for testifying? This is nothing more than a bunch of good Marines being used for political gain and is yet another black eye to justice and what's right from wrong. As for the Bush administration, some heads had to roll regardless of what actually happened so that we could look objective and fair in the bigger scheme of things. Freaking Disgraceful. For the democraps it was just a way to advance their "we have to lose this war at all costs to make Bush look bad" agenda. Blathering partisan hacks that have no morals whatever. That's about as nice as I can make it. Believe what you wish, I'll do the same. Edit to add: To the O/P it sounds as if some of the same dynamics might be going on. [/QUOTE]
