Re: American marines insulting dead bodies
War is always horrible and should be avoided at all costs. Granted this behavior was not good. But for those of us living in the US, these are chidlren of our fellow citizens, who are being asked to bear a heavy burden with several tours of duty. Most of us are fortunate to have never seen war. I hope the kids (yes - these are 20-30 yr old kids) get to come back home, the war ends and we all go back to living without hate.
I am grateful to the soldiers for bearing a very heavy load - and wish when they come back home, we will take good care of them and secure their future.
Two wrongs do not make a right as someone said here. It is my hope all of us cut back on the rhetoric and do not inflame things further. The common person just wants food on the table, and does not care about the politicking. No more lives please.
I don’t think we care entirely whose sons, and brothers they are. They are grown up enough to kill and maim, they are grown up enough to face the consequences. They ought to be hung, drawn and quartered…but knowing the US military, they’ll be lucky if they get a slap on the wrist.
