We dont train seals to be gentle with prisoners. We usually dont train them to take prisoners.

So the moral of the story is if your a terrorist and you want to be treated gently when you are captured, by all means go to san francisco and plot there.

But if you are in a war zone and the seals are about, your going to get your ass kicked.

Only a PC army would prosecute for this BS.

Uhm, my guess is that this is really about the false official statements than it is the bloody lip. But I don't want that to get in the way of Fox's THE TROOPS HATE THE TROOPS freakout.

Yeah but that makes sense and infractions involving paperwork are boring.

I'm going to file "SEALS roughing up a terrorist during a capture" in my I Don't Care file.

If it was too excessive, or after he was detained, then there's a problem.

Gave him a fat lip in the process of capturing him? Whatever. Busted him up while he was in custody? I have a problem with that.

 
bronyaur1 [TotalFark] 2009-11-24 07:42:52 PM  
I was unaware that military honor was about lying. But then again, Fox employs noted honorable ex-military guy Ollie North.

 
HowlingFrog [TotalFark] 2009-11-24 07:45:50 PM  
We have always been at war with the terrorists.

 
HowlingFrog [TotalFark] 2009-11-24 07:49:29 PM  
So this is the guy who organized the attack on the Blackwater mercs?

And why is he considered a "terrorist" again? Those guys are called Freedom Fighters when they're doing the same thing to people we don't like.

 
netweavr [TotalFark] 2009-11-24 08:03:58 PM  
Anyone else get the impression this is a routine situation that is being misrepresented by the media?

 
Doctor Funkenstein [recently expired TotalFark] 2009-11-24 08:30:11 PM  
I don't have any military background and just a tenuous knowledge of how they operate, the majority of which is probably completely wrong, so military farkers feel free to correct me here. I was under the impression that if they send SEALS in to do something, it means game farking on. I mean, do we ever send those guys into action and not expect them to violence the fark out of anything they're around? Unless I'm way off base, they should be happy he's still alive. I would have figured stuff like this goes down as such:

Officer: "This man has a bloody lip."

SEAL" "Yes he does, sir."

Officer: "How did that happen?"

SEAL: "I don't know anything about that, sir."

Officer: "Pity. I guess that'll make for short paperwork. Now, go [bench press helicopters/eat gun powder/throw missiles at the sun/whatever it is SEALS do with their time.]"

SEAL: "Yes, sir."

And that should be the end of it. And I'm OK with that.

 
SchlingFocker [TotalFark] 2009-11-24 08:36:26 PM  
Doctor Funkenstein: And that should be the end of it. And I'm OK with that.

Well, given the fact that the SEAL's team leader reported the incident up the chain, there's obviously some merit to the charges.

A good military has well-disciplined troops. The special operations units require an even higher level of discipline in their troops.

If they can't even follow a simple order to not hit a detainee once they've captured them, there's not much room for them in the SEALs.

Schadenfreude ist die schoenste Freude [TotalFark] 2009-11-24 09:47:18 PM  
Sounds like the officer reported it up the chain because he had to. The Iraqis probably filed a formal complaint with a paper trail when handing him back (since the jackass made the complaint to the Iraqis), so it sounds like the officer couldn't just tell them to f*ck off (unfortunately).

They should be happy he was captured without bullet holes and all his fingers. A bloody lip? Seriously?..... That's grounds for a court martial hearing for Navy SEALS capturing an enemy combatant?

So then you or hackhix should be able to show the textbook instance of someone saying that black kids beating a white kid on a bus was good.

"A fat lip? That's enough to get you rough military justice from the Obama administration, but blow up the World Trade Center and you get all the due process rights of the civilian criminal justice system."

 
Whodat? 2009-11-24 10:57:35 PM  
So I'm supposed to feel bad for four Blackwater mercs?

And as for the SEALs, simply being stupendous badasses (and they are) doesn't make you beyond reproach. Oh well.

 
pvd021 2009-11-24 10:57:54 PM  
Since these 'terrorist' killed Blackwater guards, I really have no problem with this, considering certain Blackwater guards killed Iraqi citizens, with zero to no repercussions. If anything we could consider this an eye for an eye.


As far as the Navy Seals soldier being brought up for criminal charges, that is complete and utter bullshiat. Someone needs to call Jesse Ventura so that he can give the powers that be a piece of his mind, and a running closeline.

Navy SEALs have secretly captured one of the most wanted terrorists in Iraq - the alleged mastermind

So it's OK when cops beat "alleged" criminals?

Why is he a "terrorist?" Sounds like a scumbag, but the "terror" label is being grotesquely overused.

What a load of shiat. I'm glad I served in the military when it was still ok to kill shiat.

 
etymxris 2009-11-24 11:02:12 PM  
It doesn't matter who it is, you don't have free reign to punch him in the face after he is bound and secured. Lying about punching him in the face doesn't help either.

vernonFL: Closing Gitmo and letting terrorists loose on American soil: Good.

As if you mean, keeping the terrorists imprisoned in jail cells that they won't escape from, away from general population, after being prosecuted in a court of law, "Letting terrorists loose." Then I would hate to see what you would say in court about the long sentence they would give you if you're ever convicted of vehicular manslaughter! ("Thank you Jury for letting me go free, I assure you it won't happen again!")

 
Paulistinian 2009-11-24 11:03:56 PM  
Personally, all of the troops are being funded through coercion and violence. All of them should be drummed out of the military, as they're violent tax-slugs.

/You only think I'm joking.
//Yes, yes, call me a troll if my statements make you uncomfortable

 
Swampthing in Korea [TotalFark] 2009-11-24 11:04:00 PM  
Based on the stuff I have read, most such charges are usually politically.

Leftists plaster the accusations up everywhere, then quietly whistle and forget about them once they are dismissed.

The alternative is they snort, roll their eyes and say "Of course a MILITARY court would acquit them. We need the UN!"

 
The_Boy_Blunder 2009-11-24 11:04:08 PM  
Is there any independent verification of this? Or a source that tells the whole story, not just "oh the SEALs gave the guy a fat lip now they're being charged welcome to Obama's America hurrr..." crap?

Sounds like the Navy Command is playing it smart. Go through the proper procedure before everything gets dismissed. Good way to avoid an international incident.

FOX "News"- that's not the kind of thing they're about.

Fox Rules for a Story:

Helps Obama? Kill it.
Hurts Obama? Run it.
Has nothing to do with Obama but can be twisted with the right spin to hurt Obama? Run that too.

thetheologian 2009-11-24 11:06:35 PM  
How many most wanted terrorists can there be? These days it appears that everyone is a most wanted terrorists. Do we need to suspend everything that identifies us as Americans in the name of capturing and detaining terrorists?

 
Lacerated Spleen 2009-11-24 11:06:41 PM  
Should have shot his terrorist ass and left him where he fell.

 
Fano 2009-11-24 11:06:54 PM  
They should have just waterboarded him and all would have been forgiven.

 
Humorbot 5.0 2009-11-24 11:07:04 PM  
I'm guessing no one here noticed that pic, ya know, of the mutilated and charred bodies hanging off the bridge that accompanied the article.

You're right, giving that guy a fat lip was VERY, VERY wrong.
/after a display like that, this terrorist should be lucky he's alive... and walking away with only a fat lip!
//I think the fat lip for killing 4 or less people will make a great law
///industrial grade sarcasm

 
rhodges26 2009-11-24 11:07:16 PM  
fark that if i was them i whoop his arse till he couldn't sit no more. seals should never be charged for hitting a terrorist he has no farking rights. Roy Damn Mercer does approve of his arse getting whooped.
