Well, at least Muslims aren’t making any videos that would be offensive to others, like perhaps a beheading video or two…oh wait!

Let’s throw her in Iraq, and then sing songs about her death.

Your sarcasm is as misplaced as your notion of mockery and hatred against a race of people…Especially innocent little girls who are depicted in songs by ‘liberators’ as human shields with bullets between their eyes and their brains splattering about…

At least Iraqis are open in telling the world what they are doing to people who came from another country to kill them or take over their resources…

Let me get this straight.

Video of Marine singing about killings is bad?
Video of Muslims beheading other Muslims and non-Muslims is good?

I don't agree with the Iraq occupation, but I still follow the moral compass that Islam has given me. Yes, the song video was in very bad taste but the beheadings of soldiers and civilians, many of them Muslims is simply evil and unislamic. No where in Islam is one allowed to kill captured prisoners without a trial, war or not. Why do some Muslims so easily give up the teachings of Islam when faced with adversity? Islam is meant for all times and many of this jihadist groups are trying to create their own twisted version of Islam.

US MARINE EXONERATED FOR SONG ABOUT KILLING IRAQIS -

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. military will not punish a Marine who performed an obscenity-laced song to a laughing and cheering crowd of fellow troops in Iraq making light of killing Iraqis, the Marine Corps said on Tuesday.

The Marines two weeks ago launched a preliminary inquiry into whether Cpl. Joshua Belile, who returned home from Iraq in March, violated military law or rules in singing the song, a four-minute video of which was posted on the Internet.

In the song, titled “hadji girl,” Belile sang to fellow troops at a base in Iraq about encountering an Iraqi woman and her family.

“I grabbed her little sister and put her in front of me. As the bullets began to fly, the blood sprayed from between her eyes, and then I laughed maniacally,” he sang. Laughing, clapping and cheers can be heard in the background.

“The preliminary inquiry has been concluded. No punitive action will be taken against Corporal Belile. And there will be no further investigation,” said Maj. Shawn Haney, a spokeswoman at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point in North Carolina.

Haney said the inquiry ruled out any violations of the Uniform Code of Military Justice.

Another Marine Corps official, who asked not to be named because details of the inquiry are private, said poor taste, poor judgment and poor timing, not to mention offensive lyrics, do not necessarily amount to criminal conduct. (MORE)
