Muslim lives don't count

There is a pretty troubling story about some soldiers in Afghanistan being prosecuted for hunting the natives for sport. Most Freepers go with the "it's a lie" dodge. But some proud few are totally cool with wanton killing of innocent Muslims:

montag813 thinks if we did it in WWII, it must be cool:

Allied forces bombed over 1,500 French towns in WWII, killing over 67,000 French civilians between Jan 1940 and May 1945. Not one U.S. airman faced charges in those deaths.

So boo freakin' hoo to the handful of Afghan savages we killed. Who gives a crap. (At least with France we were saving one of the world's great culture. WTF are we saving in Afghanistan?)

Also collateral damage is the same as hunting for sport, I guess. Bonus points for the savages comment.

a fool in paradise thinks this may be a conspiracy:

When there are reports of “US soldiers” attacking civilians, I am left to wonder, were they really members of the US military and if they were, could they have been turncoats who act out to tank the military mission (not just a “soldier gone wild” but a genuine fifth columnist hellbent on taking the troops down from within).

bigheadfred is totally cool if some of our boys "bring home a trophy or five:"

When we are talking about people with a completely different mindset, like the afganimaniacs, I don’t think it’s a joke to talk about wiping them out.

We shouldn’t be seeing increasing U.S. deaths. This crap should be over with. But when bush took his eye off the ball and headed for Iraq this was bound to happen.

Win their hearts and minds. Crap. Heroin production has increased dramatically. Corruption. Billions poured down a craphole for NO GAIN.

With restrictive ROE’s, No air support, too worried about civilian casualties, it was time to leave a LONG time ago.

If some of our boys bring home a trophy or five, good for them.

Lucius Cornelius Sulla wants him some genocide:

'I look at it this way. Every one (we) kill now is one less to kill later.'

Start with kids under five years old. They will be easier.

No, that's not sarcasm.

Friendofgeorge thinks this prosecution should come a bit later in the priority cue after executing Democrats:

those men should be punished with all due severity.
Only after Obama and the Clintons are executed for infanticide.

cowboyusa agrees - dehumanizing Muslims is only the beginning:

IF YOU ATTACK US AGAIN, YOUR SOMETHING IN YOUR AREA IS GOWING TO GLOW! We have played at war in a Leftist way for 9 years! Time to Cowboy up!

It would be better to go after the lefties. The world would be a much better place without them

That’s started as well. It’s time for Cowboys vs. Islamists and Cowboys vs. Commies.
