#1 I say, pi$$ on 'em. Hypersensitive hypocrites think that they have the corner on sensibility and morality. Give the soldiers a stern lecture and move on. I guess blowing up women and children is ok in their twisted value system.

#5 I wonder how much of this happened in WWII and nobody gave a $hit.

And I'd say that if Afghanistan and/or Iraq implode because we left early to satisfy some political cause, then whomever is responsible basically did the same thing to every Coalition member who fought and got injured or died there, including their families.

Specifically identifying the unit in the upload is definitely Idiot of the Day material. I'll bet they don't do that again for a while.

#6 "I wonder how much of this happened in WWII and nobody gave a $hit."

I would've thought death is a larger concern in itself.

#7 Noooooooooo, death takes you to pair-a-dice, even if you don't get 72 raisins. If we captured them and slit their throats, that'd be halal, so it's OK.

As opposed to the US contractor, hanging by his privates from the Fallujah bridge.

Different world.

#8 So I guess having the pigs piss on them instesd is ok then right?

#9 I am beginning to think that maybe Dr. Feelgood needs to learn to do his own killing to stay in power.

#10 Of course walking into a marketplace and shredding women and children in suicide bombings deserves 'respect' right Karzi?

#11 Is this assclown still enjoying U.S. Protection?

And of so... why?

#12 Remember
1. Rolling Stone reporters are not your friends
2. Don't give ammo to the enemy

#13 And how about the bad guys pissing on and pouring mercury onto their ammo and traps?

Ten years, two theatres, immoral enemies...two somewhat scandals, not like shop turned torture chambers?

#14 Recording it was dumb.

OK. But it's even dumber for our President, Secretary of State and Pentagon to act like it's any kind of a big deal. They should tell Karzai to FOAD.

#15 its not just the recording. Someone posted the video somewhere otherwise nobody would know about it.

In WW2, by the way, we weren't obsessed with placating the good Nazi's. It wasn't until after the war we allowed the generous bit of fiction.

#16 Article 15, reduction in rank, suspend some pay and continue to march. Nothing to see here, move along people.

#18 In WW2, a late friend of mine in the British Army in Burma related stories of catching injured Japanese soldiers. Some of the Brits would put them under tracked vehicle treads and slowly drive over them. No quarter was given or offered by either side.

#19 Taliban cut the heads off of captives and innocent people, bomb schools, etc., and Karzai doesn't give a poop, because "It's Sharia, so it's got to be good!"

But for infidels to pee on dead Muslim terrorists is an unthinkable act of desecration.

Word to Karzai: Muslims are dogs. Non-Muslims are a whole lot better beloved of Allan than are Muslims. Even Jews and atheists are better loved.

#21 Blowing up girls in schools is still ok

#22 Perhaps the Taliban should think of the U.S. Marines as our "moral police", like they have in Islamic countries. If you misbehave, Marines will bomb you, burn you, shoot you, stab you, and throw you grenades. Being peed on is the least of your troubles, although we will try to do better. You know where the Marines are in Afghanistan; if you do not like these things, you can go and talk to them directly. They would be glad to see you.

#23 Desecration (also called desacralization or desanctification) is the act of depriving something of its sacred character.

What could be sacred in a murderous turd?

#24 Promote these soldiers. I would rather have soldiers that will piss on the enemy every chance they get than to bow down and apologize to our enemies like one President Hussein Obama does every chance he gets.
