"That's not a fact.....its opinion from someone who has never been under fire.....and as usual, hasn't a clue what he's talking about..."
Your point is well taken. While watching the tape i heard marines talking about taking out two sleeping insurgents in a combat operation earlier. What were they supposed to do--wake them to make it a fair fight or if awakened should they have arrested them or given them a gunslingers chance to go for their weapons. War sucks and it sucks because its about legalized murder but when fighting it, it is kill or be killed. So after thinking about what i saw, i realized that in the same circumstance i would have done the same thing and I suspect the anti-warriors on the thread would be doing that as well. Mike
