Support the troops? No thanks.
These are "our boys," the ones we're supposed to "support" and keep funding as long as they're in "harm's way." No thanks.
The leader of a squad of Marines that killed 24 Iraqis in Haditha told two soldiers a week before the assault if they were ever hit by a roadside bomb they should kill everyone in the area, a former squad member testified Friday.(Hat tip to WIIIAI, who has made a point to follow this and similar trials closely)
"We were smoking outside ... for whatever reason Staff Sergeant Wuterich made this comment that if we ever got hit again we should kill everybody in that vicinity, sir, to teach them a lesson."
