FOXNews.com - GOP Reps. Want Charges Dropped Against SEALs Accused of Abusing Terror Suspect

Two Republican lawmakers are seeking to have charges dropped against three Navy SEALs facing court-martial for accusations of abusing a terror suspect arrested for an ambush killing of U.S. contractors in Iraq.

The SEALs -- Special Warfare Operators 2nd Class Matthew McCabe and Jonathan Keefe and Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Julio Huertas -- were part of a team that in September 2009 captured Ahmed Hashim Abed, the Al Qaeda terrorist behind the murder and mutilation of four Blackwater USA contractors in Fallujah in 2004.

The contractors' bodies were burned and left hanging from a bridge. The image came to symbolize the rise of Al Qaeda in Iraq and the brutality of the enemy Americans face there.

McCabe is accused of punching Abed in the stomach and giving him a bloody lip during the arrest.

The U.S. policy regarding the abuse and torture of suspected terrorists and other detainees is very clear, the U.S. does NOT torture.

This isn't torture douchebag. He is accused of roughing the guy up while detaining him.

see, you write "while detaining". i read it as "in detainment".

i can honestly not say what i would do in this situation. it is almost 100% certain that i will never be someone who abuses a prisoner.

That is the difference. I don't see it as abuse.

yeah well, it is a thin line. i don't think we will find out what they did to this one guy. i suspect it was a little more than a punch in the face.

I sure do hope so.

From the OP.

yeah, from the OP. i wrote that before. Foxnews and the congressmen say that.

what i posted said it happened in camp baharia in detainment.

These guys are also charged with making false statements. Is the GOP of the opinion that soldiers should be telling lies to their superior officers?

Theoretically? No. Realistically, well.....

Where'd he say revenge? Try watching COPS. Suspects in our own country get slammed around worse than anything I see here and the stakes are MUCH smaller.

It's more like squashing roaches ...

Where it happened matters not to me.

Brilliant.

Hey folks, the law doesn't apply anymore. So feel free to go out and do crack in the streets, rape your neighbors wife, and shoot up a bus full of nuns - we're AT WAR so the law DOES NOT APPLY anymore .

Has the DNC fostered an atmosphere in this nation where they feel they need to just for doing their jobs?

This is where you mod your head rapidly and say "Why yes, they have."

is this a thread where the same people crying about obama butting into the military with the DADT repeal are now saying he should butt in when it comes to this trial?

I'm sorry you're just this stupid. Google is your friend, fuckwit. US law does NOT apply to US military personnel deployed in combat. Get a f-ing clue, huh?

Don't put words in my mouth.

why would you hope they hit him more than once in the face?

Just make sure I get this right-

military law, does not apply, to members of the military, during war time.

Is that right? Its OK to make false statements - but only during war time?

Actually you just responded to Gunny and he is from Texas.

Also, soldiers and sailors are not bound by US law in a warzone. They are bound by the rules of engagement and the UCMJ. But wouldn't know that.
