[QUOTE="The Other Side, post: 929508, member: 17969"] Is prefer to say that I am willing to hold our soldiers responsible for their actions no matter who put them there or the circumstances involved. If "WE" are suppose to be a peace loving free nation, our soldiers should not go to other countries and commit war crimes while in the uniform of the United States. This soldier had a trial, presented evidence and witnesses and was convicted of a lesser crime than he originally was charged with. He was found guilty and sentenced. I accept his sentence as fair for his role in the homocide. I dont let emotions get the best of me. I dont read INFLAMMATORY words and assume facts NOT in evidence. IN this case, the ARMY INTELLIGENCE after intense interrogation found this person to be INNOCENT of any crimes and released him into the custody of this LT and ORDERED him to return him to his home. ON the way, this LT made a calculated decision that was NOT his to make and decided to interrogate the man HIMSELF using force. The man, scared for his life probably and most likely tried to defend himself and the LT killed him in front of his own men, and two of those men testified against him. Pretty easy to understand. No heroic actions involved, NO defending the constitution, NO defending his men under his command. This was payback for some killings and this LT wasnt going to let this man go despite the ARMY's finding that there was NO EVIDENCE to hold the man. How the trial transpires is of no concern to me. How it starts and eventually ends is called justice. This LT admitted killing the man and the defense tried to use some lame ash excuse about stress and combat fatigue. It didnt work. CONVICTION. Case closed. Thats how I see it, plain and simple. Peace. [/QUOTE]
