This guy absolutely nails it. Via Hot Air:
"They are murderers and terrorists that think nothing of blowing up soldiers, civilians, women and children. What have they done to deserve our respect?
There are Marines being killed and maimed on a daily basis by these people. They are flying in from Muslim countries all over the world to get their crack at martyrdom.
If some Marine that fought them in battle fair and square feels that he has the right to urinate on a defeated enemy, what is the problem? Hell, it could be worse…. It is a fight to the death, not some sort of gentlemanly duel with seconds and everyone very politely drinking a fine wine afterwards."
-Army Sgt. Maj. Herb Freidman
And he dared to utter this non-PC view on MSNBC? Wish I'd have seen that, the host of the program probably passed out from shock.
UPDATE: Rep Allen West chimes in.
[...] I do not recall any self-righteous indignation when our Delta snipers Shugart and Gordon had their bodies dragged through Mogadishu. Neither do I recall media outrage and condemnation of our Blackwater security contractors being killed, their bodies burned, and hung from a bridge in Fallujah. All these over-emotional pundits and armchair quarterbacks need to chill. Does anyone remember the two Soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division who were beheaded and gutted in Iraq?
No sir, selective outrage is a specialty of today's Western liberal media elite. They caterwaul only when it fits their template.
I don't believe that there's a whole lot of disagreement about pissing on those maggots.
No one I've spoken to, man, woman or liberal (granted, I've only spoken to one lib so far) seems to have a problem with the action.
The problem, as I see it, is that the Marines were foolish enough to let someone tape it.
THAT wasn't well thought out.

I disagree. Seems to me the more ruthless and savage our soldiers, the more our enemies and those sympathetic to their cause would fear them.

I love the way you morons pretend your "Soldiers" are any better than the "Terrorists".

Typical douchebag with the lame-ass moral equivalences. Didn't I just read about our military rescuing IRANIANS from Somali pirates? No, of course we're ABSOLUTELY NO BETTER than the jihadis. Peeing on dead bodies is just as bad as BEHEADING LIVING CAPTIVES with knives so dull the have to stop halfway through the neck for a new blade.
See ya later asshole.

Woody, you and I aren't disagreeing.
What I'm suggesting is that this sort of thing not be recorded; simply discussed within the enemy camps between goat fornications.
Again, I have no problem with our guys bringing the heat in any way that lets these shitstains know what fight they picked. Just don't let the world have these types of records that'll get used against them.

I see that you beat me to the Allen West update.
I wish that guy had thrown his hat into the ring.

OK, OK, I can't stand it any more. You people are making me crazy. I have been so angered by your uppity attitudes that I lost my erection when trying to comfort my aged mother, who told me that because of Bush, she could no longer hold her second job as a hooker at the bus station. She was in tears as she told me that she may not be able to make my Chevy Volt payments any more and I may have to stop paying membership fees to the gay porn sites.
I tried to assure her that I could make up the difference by selling her pain meds online, at least until she could find another second job. As she writhed on my lap, pretending she wanted to resist my filial attentions, I asked if she would at least still be able to redecorate my basement apartment in her place, as I am tired of the Goth theme and want something trendier.
And my suffering is all YOUR fault, you and your 'soldiers', and your ' government' and your 'religion' and your 'quotation mark empire'.
I stamp my foot with anger at you, so there!

@ WOODY - the civilized person would follow the cultural norms of his noble enemy by first beheading the Taliban ,THEN urinating or defecating on the head.
A sensitive gentleman would have known that,
