Free The Navy SEALs
By Wyatt Earp | December 13, 2009
Perhaps you have heard the story about the court martial of three Navy SEALs accused of “mistreating” a terrorist. Yeah, it has come to this. Well, Human Events has an online petition up on their site asking Defense Secretary Robert Gates to dismiss these ridiculous charges. Michelle Malkin has the story:
Human Events has posted a petition to free the Navy SEALs who’ve been hauled up for court martials after an infamous jihadi in Iraq (the same one who masterminded the ambush of Blackwater contractors whose bodies were burned and hung on a bridge in Fallujah) accused them of punching him in the stomach during a raid earlier this fall. You can sign here. Members of Congress have called on Secretary Gates to intervene as well.
Note the highlighted portion. The SEALs are charged with punching a known terrorist in the stomach. This is what stands for “mistreatment” in our country now. Personally, I think the terrorist is lucky to be alive, but what do I know? I’m just a knucklehead blogger who wants to give our troops the benefit of the doubt. If you feel the same way, click the link above and sign the petition. They deserve your support.

This petition needs about 300 million autographs.

Signed a couple of days ago. It is also my understanding the defense has not yet seen the evidence against these guys. My guess is the persecution is trying to figure out if they even have a case. What a bunch of losers.

Signed.
Dear God, leave the country for three months, come back to find everything screwed up beyond belief.
This is not the country I was born in.

This terrorist scumbag is lucky the SEALS didn’t drop his azz off at the base firehouse on the way to the brig… you know just to use the “facilities”.
Hope, Change!! Yes we can! Obama, Obama, Obama!

Mrs. Crankipants – About that picture: Apology accepted.
Randal – I signed it, and I know the site was down for a while the other day because of too much traffic.
Ralph – Locking them up then figuring out the charges. Sounds like a few of the cops in my division.
Kev – Luckily, you don’t have that many of them in AZ.
Raptor – We need Zombie Teddy Roosevelt to get us out of this p.c. disaster.
Captain – Shame they didn’t give him a soap bar beating like in Full Metal Jacket.

I signed. I still say unless the Seals showed up with pieces of the guy in 3 different vehicles no harm no foul.

Signed last week.
This is a good argument for “Take No Prisoners”.
Course then our troops will be tried for murder.
Why anyone would re-enlist under the current CIC is beyond me. It was bad enough when I gave up any thoughts of re-upping under Carter. but he was downright competent compared to this guy.

This entire episode is preposterous. The seals did not hang those terrorists. They should have the charges dropped immediately. This goes against the grain of all Americans.

It’s a good thing I’m not God. Then again, maybe these sadists who Think they’re warriors of Allah will find Him even less of a mind to “forgive” them on their coming Trial before Him. It’s not like they don’t have Muhammud’s views on terrorists’ activities – and not like we can’t read them. God condemns them, Muhammud condemns them…just the US military commander responsible for this obscene action against the SEALS AND the American People is willing be Politically Correct and Morally Decadent.
