#1 Hey, I welcome this probe. But I predict that when the outcome doesn't show the Marines are to blame, we'll never hear about this again. Same thing if it is discovered the militants used civilians as shields, hid in schools, mosques, houses, and so on.

#2 The trick here is to send the human rights watch investigators into Fallujah ahead of the Marines, so they can show the Marines how to do things the right way, and also help in locating any unexploded IED's.

Probe Needed Into U.S. Action in Falluja
It certainly is - as to why the Marines haven't killed more terrorists, both foreign and domestic.

Yes, HRW, you go into Fallujah and show us how to properly and politely deal with murdering terrorist scum. Make sure your wills are up to date first. And don't expect us to come rescue you; we know you wouldn't approve of our actions.

Wankers.

#4 Sure HRW, Right after you investigate slavery in Sudan, Female mutilation in Saudi Arabia / Pakistan / Iran / Africa /etc... , the murder of newborn babies in North Korea (because they might be of 'inpure' North Korean / Chinese blood), Political prisoners in China and North Korea, all the mass graves in Iraq (and probably Iran now as well).

Once you investigate all those offenses which are already on your plate then you will be more then welcome to visit Falluja.

Until then SHUT THE FUCK UP! (pardon my 'french').

#5 Prediction: reporting on HRW will invariably have to mention atrocities committed against the 4 Americans killed by the Fallujahans.

Most Americans will think we were justified regardless of collateral damage and some Arabs might even understand the cause/effect cycle at least for a bit.

#6 Has anyone done research into the salaries these professional complainers human rights types draw? It bothers me immensely to think they could pay off a decent mortgage on such.

WTF? Ms. Mufti? I can barely put into words my disgust with such obvious bias self-righteous assholes who completely ignore the fact that 1MEF would not be there were it not for the ambush of four of our citizens.

#7 Just 600 dead...damn I was hoping for at least 100 times that!! For every one of ours I was thinking 100 of them, but that's just me.
