#1 Have any embeds been fragged?

#2 Our boys are too professional to do that. From what I've heard, some French embedded with the jihadis nearly got fragged, though.

#3 That's too bad.

About our boys' professionalism, I mean.

#4 Hyped up, weary, can "disillusioned" be far behind? Fucking MSM

#5 I forgot "exhausted and bewildered".....that would apply more to the enemy, MSM, but that's undoubtedly who's "our boys" to you...

#10 Frank, he could have just jumped out of the vehicle. Also I think it takes a good head to be that collected and grab the grenade and try to get rid of it. I give the guy more credit than you.

#11 no doubt he did a good thing, but I'm a self-preservation first thought guy when it comes to teh media - we'll never know, and I'll gladly join you in assuming the best. Agreed, he deserves nothing less - my bad for being so cynical

#12 " bewildered soldiers"

Talk about slant... THese guys know where they are and what they are doing - and are doing it well.

What the hell is "bewidlering" about that?

This guys bias is leaking in his word choice and diction.
