Yeah, for reasons I can't explain, that's how I post it.
I'm supposed to use capital I's not 1's - oh well, maybe next time I'll get it right, but if not, I'll look into get eye glasses....
Atrocities are well recorded throughout history of the vanquishing armies upon their foes.My Dad was a WW11 combat soldier in the Pacific campaign. He fought in Okinawa and was part of General Mark Clark's soldiers in the occupation of Japan.
He told me of atrocities by our guys was common. Yes, enemy soldiers were guilty of this too, but our guys weren't immune to it either.
Here's one: His Platoon Leader loved to lure Japs out of caves with promises of food and amnesty and then light em up with a flame thrower when they reluctantly came out.
How many times can you see the enemy take advantage of our adherence to the ROE and not start to wish we fight fire with fire?
.... Merely I hope to eventually understand how we deal with the things that happen in war.
...Our culture rightly condemns violence and killing but then we ask our young men to go to war and kill the enemy...
Guess the navy ignored this guy's previous behaviour.
Miller said the fighter, who was speaking, had a leg wound but no other noticeable injuries.
Gallagher then began assessing the fighter's wounds. When he put pressure on the man's leg, the fighter raised himself up, seemingly in pain, and screamed. Miller testified that he used his boot to push him back down before leaving the scene to go back to the vehicle.
About 15 minutes later, Miller testified, he returned and walked around a Humvee where he saw SEAL medics working on the fighter from about 12 feet away. Gallagher, he said, was kneeling down on the fighter's right side.
"I kept walking and I saw him stab the prisoner in the neck," Miller said. He pointed to the right side of his own neck to show where the stabbing occurred. Gallagher stabbed him "once or twice," Miller said.
Miller testified that blood came pouring out of the fighter's neck, which "looked similar to a baby throwing up."
Later that evening, Miller testified, the SEALs had a meeting to discuss the day's events. Miller said, "I told them what I saw and I asked if anybody was okay with it." Towards the end of the meeting, Gallagher walked in and pulled Miller aside, and the junior sailor testified that he told him, "Eddie, the guys are not good with this," When Gallagher asked which guys, Miller said, "I'm not good with it."
Miller also said Gallagher threatened him in a parking lot soon after they returned from deployment. In a meeting Miller testified that he attended along with Lt. Portier (SEAL platoon commander), Gallagher, and Lt. Thomas MacNeill, he quoted Gallagher as saying he "had shit on all of us" and if we said any more "he'd take us all down."
Well, we know one thing with 100% certainty. One of these two SEALS is a liar.And Navy SEAL Chief Craig Miller, the leading petty officer of SEAL Team 7 Alpha Platoon, said he witnessed Gallagher stabbing the wounded ISIS fighter...
Gallagher is also facing charges he fired on innocent civilians during a deployment to Mosul, Iraq in 2017.
Well, it was the prosecution's own witness that said there was no physical evidence of a stab wound.Well, we know one thing with 100% certainty. One of these two SEALS is a liar.
