Yeah, he did say that.Allen West on the Marines Incident: 'Shut Your Mouth, War Is Hell' | The Weekly Standard
Have to agree. The phoney outrage being displayed by the kooks is rediculous.
Interesting................a retired military officer is saying that it's okay that these Marines violated the Standards of Conduct as well as the Geneva Conventions, and he just wants to give 'em a slap on the wrist.
They should be courts martialed and gived Bad Conduct Discharges.
I guess West forgot what the rules were when he was in.
I guess you cannot read. He specifically said they should receive the maximum possible punishment under the UCMJ, and be forced to publicly apologize to the Corps and to the world. If you think that is letting them slide you are a fool.
He also told everyone else to stfu. I've got news for him: we have freedom of speech in this country AND the military acts at OUR whim, not the other way around.
You stfu, West.
