'poster boy' for the 'anti-war' crowd. Here we have a gentlemen that enters the military, as a volunteer, in 2003--at a time of war an now refused orders... What does this tell you about the man--this 'statement' was planned, he is a coward, he is selfish, or all of the above? Whatever you think or whether or not you agree with the war--he is a DISGRACE!
He 'volunteered' knowing full well what was waiting for him--trust me he would have had ample opportunity to 'bow out' before accepting his commission -- so what is this? A DISGRACE--he is disgracing those who have served with honor, those who have been killed, and those currently serving. I hope the ARMY punishes him with the full impact of the UCMJ (Uniform Code of Military Justice)--what better way for him to show he really 'stands up' for what he believes then to give up eight to twelve years of his life? None of the charges involved desertion, which can carry a harsher penalty, and describes is actions toward his 'brothers and sisters in arms'... A DISGRACE I tell you!

Happy Forth of July
Let's review what we heard last year -- 'the pipeline is un-securable' or 'the military can never secure the pipeline'... Hmm, what do you think about this news?
Iraqi oil is gushingBEIJI, Iraq -- For more than two years the attacks came like clockwork. As soon as the military secured and workers repaired the pipelines from Iraq's northern oil fields, just when the valves were about to open, insurgents would strike. But roughly three weeks ago they suddenly stopped, letting crude oil flow freely from Iraq's vast reserves near Kirkuk.
Now never fear the media doesn't let us down... They don't and won't credit anything the military is doing!
Perhaps insurgents feared reprisals in Salahuddin province, where pipelines from Kirkuk flow to the country's largest refinery in Beiji. Maybe terror leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's death disrupted a chain of command that ordered the attacks, military officials said.
Whatever the cause,...
"
Whatever the cause" -- LET ME GIVE YOU A HINT -- "Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, what a great place....."

if we hear outrage against the animals who did this or accusation that someone the Military and the President are guilty of doing it. I am sure there is outrage; however, I predict the Democrats and the MSM, following their 'plan', will turn this into yet another attack against the Military and the President.
As for me I feel for the family--and hope these soliders' unit get the chance to identify and find the persons responsible!
