So… today is the anniversary of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. Not that any mainstream media source will bother mentioning it. We wouldn’t want people to remember the catalyst that resulted in the bombing of Hiroshima after all, which I can guarantee you the mainstream media will cover when that anniversary rolls around.
But do you want to know what’s even more tragic than forgetting the anniversary of a horrific attack by an enemy army? There’s an attack going on against our military at this moment, on the anniversary of Pearl Harbor, and most Americans aren’t even aware of it (no thanks to the mainstream). Worse still, the attack isn’t even being carried out by a hostile foreign nation… it’s by our own government.
Three US Navy SEALs (Sea, Air and Land Forces) have been arraigned for thier court-martials today for what has been referred to as a “dereliction of duty”. What is this horrific offense, you ask?
Well, it looks like the three SEALS are accused of “abusing” a terrorist that they captured back in early September. While its not yet clear as of this writing exactly when this alleged abuse took place, at some point during his detention, the terrorist claimed that he was “punched in the gut” as well as in the mouth, using his bloody lip as “evidence”.
Now, before you get all sympathetic about this poor, abused man, let me tell you what this animal did…
Back in Fallujah in 2004, a supply convoy that was being escorted by four Blackwater security contractors was ambushed by terrorists. The contractors were killed, hacked apart, burned, then as a final insult, two of their bodies were hung on a bridge over the Euphrates River, specifically so that reporters could get a good look at them.
The prisoner complaining that he was abused by the SEALs, Ahmed Hashim Abed, was the mastermind of that attack. Feel sorry for him now?
So, what we have here is that these SEALs are finally able to capture this guy, and in return, they get court-martialed for giving this goon a fat lip. For all we know, the guy probably punched himself in the mouth just so that he could raise this accusation.
I know what you’re thinking. That’s insane, right? What kind of person would be crazy enough to punch himself in the face just so he could accuse someone of beating him?
The same kind of person who flies planes into buildings. The same kind of person who would strap a bomb to himself, wander into a crowd, scream “Allah Akbar” and blow himself up... that kind of person. It wouldn’t seem too far fetched for this guy to punch himself in the face to set his captors up. That would actually be pretty trivial to guys like this. While I can’t state this as an absolute fact, I hear that Al-Qaeda has a training manual that specifically says (some say on page 18), that if captured, accuse your captors of abuse. They may not go free, but they can at least, in their minds, put in that seed of doubt to a sympathetic public with the allegations, which could work out favorably for him in the long run during a trial.
As most of us know, it’s much easier to make accusations than it is to prove the accuser is lying.
But let’s say that this terrorist mastermind is actually telling the truth. What if he really did get punched in the face by his captors? Of course, that’s assuming that it wasn’t done during a struggle while making an escape attempt. You know what I say to that?
Tough luck.
Do you really expect me to feel sorry for some animal that is responsible for murdering four contractors and hanging their charred bodies on a bridge for the world to see? This guy was lucky that a fat lip was all he got. He should be on his knees and thanking Allah that it was the SEALs that captured him, and not fellow Iraqis who are not exactly known for their restraint towards their prisoners. This joker would’ve been killed a long time ago, and you can bet that the manner of death would’ve been horrible. Just ask the family members of any US soldier that was captured in Iraq. Only one has ever come back alive, and she was rescued by us, not returned by her captors.
Split lips will heal in time. Those four contractors will never come back to their families… ever.
