We should seriously be questioning the Bush Administration’s sanction of a policy to set up our own soldiers in order to take the fall to prove to the world that the Iraq government and justice system is legitimate. This is despicable lying behavior that sacrifices our own.

In an article 32, you don’t have to have evidence to convict. So in the absence of evidence, and with manufactured evidence and forged documents, our guys are being accused and convicted without access to evidence they could use to defend themselves. They’re not facing their accusors in court, which used to be a constitutional right. This is just a portion of how the prosecution and defense are working in concert to prosecute our marines, using them as an example of what not to do when they’re deployed to Iraq. You’re going to war but you’re putting your ass on the line if you shoot at a terrorist who’s shooting at you! This is pretty despicable.

If President Bush is going to send 30,000 more troops to Iraq, this must change.

We’re talking about forgeries, forging signatures, we’re talking about some pretty heavy duty stuff that JAG is using to perpetrating fraud to convict marines, and the Pendleton 8 isn’t an isolate case of this.
