1 Ask yourself when the media ever downplayed a multiple-murder story...

When the perpetrators are members of a favored class -- generally non-white, non-male, non-hetero.

Duh.

2 You forgot traitor. If he is giving our anti-missile technology to Russia he is a traitor.

3 It's Palin's fault.

I seem to recall a certain Israeli Family being slaughtered in their sleep a week or so back...oh, wait- They were Jooos...

and there was Candy for the Palestinian Children!

9

My local paper occasionally runs an AP story on the case, but it's never any where near the front page and the headers are always understated.

I still can't believe the shitbag's name is "Morlock".

10 MBM:  Look!  A squirrel!!

11 OT but.. 

They told me that if I voted for McCain that there would be ongoing wars in the Middle East over oil..

And they were right.

12 The MFM is in overdrive to re-paint Barky and his regime as Jesus and the Disciples.  It's only just beginning.  Just wait until the beginning of 2012.

13 Ace check out my link is the headline section. Rolling Stone has some of the photos and in one of the captions they draw sarah palin into it because one of the men lived near Wasilla. However they do not mention Obama once

14 MBM:  Booosh was a war criminal!!11eleventy!!11

21 I'm sure they'll get around to reporting on it after they finish their exhaustive pieces on the closing of Guantanamo Bay and grim milestones.

22 The "media", believing their Obama to be a man-loving pacifist, can't fathom him being responsible in any way for these murders. A republican? Well, they probably order these kinds of things for kicks or, at the very least, create an environment where mass murder is accepted. So why should they ask questions of Obama when they, the media, knows he's not responsible?

23 I'm not gonna believe any article that comes from "Jewish World Review."

25 Where I hate that these things happen in times of war, they should be aired.  Those that commit the atrocities should be punished accordingly, as these men will be.  I really don't like watching the YouTube vids of footage of troops getting over-excited watching or calling in the strikes on our enemies.  Do they deserve to die?  Most of the time, yes....should our men and women in uniform be proud of what they're doing?  Absofuckinlutely.  That being said.....treating the taking of human lives like a scene in a video game is a bit troublesome.

That being said, kill as many of these bloodthirsty 4th century bastards as you can while your there.  Better there than here.

29 The "media", believing their Obama to be a man-loving pacifist

They don't know the half of it.

30 It shows just how morally bankrupt liberals in the media are. Katie Couric, Rachel Maddow, Chris Matthews, Anderson Cooper, even pretend newspeople like Jon Stewart and Colbert. It hurts me to know that there are any people in the military that would engage in this behavior, but letting something like this get downplayed shocks even me, and I have no respect for the liberal media. Then again, I guess there is important news to focus on like Charlie Sheen's idiot behavior, and His Awesomeness' bracket picks.

31 I was at a dinner with a bunch of old liberal friends from summer camp days. They never heard of the subject because they only read the NY Times and they only listen to NBC. And then it is only a quick glance at the headlines. They are a bunch of ignorant slobs

36 OT: Donald Trump, who has been making television appearances calling for President Barack Obama to release his official birth documents, on Monday released his birth certificate exclusively to Newsmax.

“It took me one hour to get my birth certificate. ItÂ’s inconceivable that after four years of questioning,  the President still hasnÂ’t produced his birth certificate. IÂ’m just asking President Obama to show the public his birth certificate. WhyÂ’s he making an issue out of this?" http://tinyurl.com/4856bpy

I'm still waiting for someone to pony up the bucks to gain access to the 'really should be out there somewhere' recordings of the Jugears administration calling media outlets and ripping them for not being nice in articles.......

38 Room 101 for you, Ace. O'Brien wants to talk about your insufficient devotion to The Ministry of Truth. In case it isn't clear already, the MBM will scarcely report anything that makes Her Highness look bad. Lady Barry could literally stand beneath the portico of the White House, in front of a group of visiting school children, drop his pants and pee on the teacher. It would never earn so much as a raised eyebrow from a newspaper editor or a Brian Williams.

39 It's an abdication of the responsibility that comes with the rights of the First Amendment.


It's criminal.

40 Gotta hand it to The Donald.  And yeah, I'd vote for him, or my pet kitteh, if that was what we had to choose from over Barky.

41 In fairness to the media, these guys were only killing people and not taking pictures of prisoners with hoods on.

42

That being said.....treating the taking of human lives like a scene in a video game is a bit troublesome.

 

I take it that you've never been in a war zone with people trying to kill you.  I and every GI around me celebrated the killing and smashing of our enemies when I was in Vietnam.

War crimes by a few individuals =

Under Bush.
sign of systemic breakdown in humanity amongst military forces predicated by the Presidents established command policies and his inhumane decision to pursue war against innocent peoples.

Under Obama.
Nothing more than a few bad apples that the military justice system is more than able to take care of. 

44 MBM:  Look over there!  A dead polar bear!

45 I don't know what you people are talking about.

46 Heh. The radio station is playing Trump's statement during their newsbreaks today. After the clip of D.T., the newsreader explains that "Pres. Obama has already produced a COLB which lists his name, date and place of birth" with a condescending sneer in his voice.

47 So when you put them some fucking knowledge, what was their reaction? Posted by: Jane D'oh at March 28, 2011 02:40 PM (UOM4 Then they do a google search and find that the NY Times did mention it 3 times on page 46 and say see they did mention it?

My kingdom for ONE election where I don't have to choose between two really fucking shitty candidates.

I'd do exactly the same thing.  The nominee from the R's gets my vote regardless because we HAVE to get this brutal menace out of the White House, but I'd really rather vote for someone that doesn't fucking suck so I can feel GOOD about my vote, for once.

I'm a fence-sitter on this story.

The more play it gets, the more pit-hair we have to see from The Beasts at CodePink.

 

indeed. I kinda felt this way about Abu Gharib as well. If I am not mistaken the people involved were already being tried in military court, so the constant front page stories weren't really breaking anything or revealing a cover up.

The media is treating this story the same way I wish they would have treated Abu Gharib. As a crime committed by a small group of soldiers and that no one is really resposible except those who committed the evil acts.

Try them and punish them accordingly and lets move on.

Let's be honest, it's a freaking war, stuff like this is going to happen. When you have hundreds of thousands on men in the field, there are going to be a few rapes, murders, etc.  Our Armed Forces aren't capable of screening out the truly deranged and evil any better than private companies, public schools, etc.

It happens, report on it, give the details and then move on.

I sure hope none of our candidates say things that the media will us against the candidates and us in 2012.

54 I shall use my mad computer skills to prove that the Kill Team story was written on a 80286 Packard Bell, not a real typewriter. This will prove Bush murdered all the victims, and Jeremy Morlock is Sarah Palin in disguise.

55 The media took Eason Jordan's words to heart. They know they can be worth 10-25 pts in the election. And they're gonna play it to the hilt. Republicans are going to have to bypass them to get their case out, and they're going to have to construct a media strategy that is aware of this bias.

It'd be nice if some grandstanding Republican in congress started asking questions about what Obama knew and when he knew it about this on C-Span.

That is correct.  I've never been in a war zone, and I've never been shot at.  Threatened with a knife once and a tazer once.

I'm talking about vids like the one in the overnight thread last night.  They're in a command center calling in strikes against IED installers......they're gung ho and all that, but they just have an air about them in the audio....a bit bothersome, to me, I guess.  I'm proud of what they're doing and behind them 100%. 

I'm a bit lethargic today, so that could be it........

58
Isn't it amazing how ALL of the complaints over Gitmo's conditions issued by the phony human rights organizations have COMPLETELY stopped since November 3, 2008?

59 That being said.....treating the taking of human lives like a scene in a video game is a bit troublesome.

That being said, keeping your troops aggressively motivated to kill the enemy results in fewer casualties...for both sides.

A classic topical presentation.

"My God, I actually pity those poor bastards we're going up against. My God, I do. We're not just going to shoot the bastards, we're going to cut out their living guts and use them to grease the treads of our tanks. We're going to murder those lousy Hun bastards by the bushel. Now some of you boys, I know, are wondering whether or not you'll chicken out under fire. Don't worry about it. I can assure you that you'll all do your duty. The Nazis are the enemy. Wade into them. Spill their blood, shoot them in the belly."

60 You people are all obviously racist, these were not Eric Holder or Obamas people and dragging him into this is offensive.  He is not responsible for anything that goes wrong and we all know that most of this conflict is the work of Dick Cheney, Bush, Haliburton and the Shadow Government.  Oh and you Faux News loving chumps don't ask me for a link or proof, I just have a strong feeling this is what is going on!

PS.  Sarah Palin is a stupid evil muderous loon and Rush is fat fat fatty pill adict!

61 If there was concrete evidence that Barry was a modern day Jack the Ripper, I mean video of Barry slashing away at victims the MFM would cover it up for him

62 *sob*

63 "They told me that if I voted for McCain that there would be ongoing wars in the Middle East over oil.. And they were right." Yeah, but this is okay because it's not over oil for ourselves, it's for oil for Europe. Doing anything for our own self interest would be baaaad.

64 So what. The media is biased. Whatcha gonna do besides get offended and bitch about it? Don't know about the rest of you, but these stories only piss me off because they underscore how impotent conservatism is as an intellectual and communicative force.

I too have never served, but I would think having to pick up the pieces of a corpse that once was my good friend who was unfortunate enough to step on an IED would make me immune to feeling any sympathy for the enemy.

Laughing, jocking and mocking them as they die would probably be enjoyable given the circumstances.

The anti-war phonies haven't got a problem with drones, anymore. Amazing.

You know what else? The media reports about muslim "weddings" and "funerals" bombed by the United States have completely stopped since Nov 3, 2008.

70 Well, since they have already been charged with the crime of murder, what more can they do at this point? 

This is actually an old story.  The story broke when some soldier's parents called DoD or a Congress Critter or something about their son mentioning these guys collecting fingers or something.

71 Also interesting to note that Tomahawk missiles stopped hitting civilians.

78 A little something up-lifting from the Savannah paper today.  Enjoy:

I, like most African Americans, was very proud when Mr. Obama was elected the first black president of America, so it pains me deeply to say that if the president uses just one of our soldiers to drop so much as a fire cracker into Libya, then I swear on my loving motherÂ’s grave that I will do everything in my power to help him out of office.

A large number of people voted against the president. What if that number took up arms to try and remove the president? What do you think would happen?

Our arrogance stinks to the high heavens and it extends to all colors and cultures.

I had high hopes when Mr. Obama won the election, but it seems to me that his tail got wagged by the very office he holds.

83 Well, as seen in sidebar VDH has another fine and depressing article. Note: We spent over a $100 million on day one in launching Tomahawk missiles (lots of unemployment checks and shovel-ready stimulus projects that went up in smoke). Even if everything goes well, the cost will be in the billions of dollars, especially rebuilding the infrastructure that we are now blowing up. Perhaps we can ask the strapped Japanese to buy more rather than sell off our Treasury notes—to help fund the Tomahawks and the rebuilding of the bombed-out Gaddafi infrastructure Oh salty Jeebus. You just know he's right. We'll be stuck with the bill to rebuild Libya, which means the cash will just funnel into the bank accounts of tribal leaders and European contractors.

You know... that should be uplifting, but it's not.  Even in saying he'll do "everything in [his] power to help [Obama] out of office," he's saying that it's the fault of the office "his tail got wagged..." even.

So, you see, it's not Obama's fault that he's a feckless dog-vomit slime mold.  It's the fault of "the office."

86 They're in a command center calling in strikes against IED installers

You mean non-uniformed combatants installing a Geneva prohibited anti-personnel booby trap? Essentially committing two war crimes at once? And our guys had an air about them like these guys are inhuman bugs? War criminals caught in the act?

87 Also interesting to note that Tomahawk missiles stopped hitting civilians. They use those new "smart nerf" Tomahawks that only blow up bad stuff but leave babies and women in rosy health. Barry designed and built them personally. Bet you didn't know she was a magical weapons engineer.

My take on this is that it is a psychological defense mechanism. They know they are killing real people and that is there job so they have to psych themselves up to do it.

Being completely monotone and disconnected from the event would worry me more.

94 "They are a bunch of ignorant slobs" You don't know how ignorant unless you listened to Hannity's radio program shortly after the 2008 election. He did this thing on Fridays where someone who worked for him would be in NYC or somewhere, and get twenty somethings to talk on the microphone. He would ask them who they voted for for president, and of course, being young and from NYC they pretty much all voted for His Awesomeness. Then he'd chat them up a little bit and when they were comfortable, he'd ask them who Obama's running mate was. He did this for quite a few Fridays in a row, and I don't recall one, NOT ONE, knowing that Biden was going to be the new vice president. And this wasn't edited like "Jay Walking", this was live radio. I forgive Hannity for a lot, just because of this.

100 This really shows what the media's agenda is. There is no news media, only liberal activists masquerading as journalists.

101 So, how long until Libyabodycount.org is up and running? The left is feverishly working on BarackHolyMiracleCount.org to document the various and sundry miracles She bestows upon us. In the latest report of a divine act, Barry was at a wedding and turned wine into urine.

102 I'm going to get you Fox News, you not really news network. You and your little dog too.

103 I mentioned Obama Ghraib to my New-York-Times-Reading hippie friend and he was befuddled as to what I was talking about.

104 I'm not biased.  I'm dead.

105 Our self-admitted cocaine-sniffing, communist mentored, paper-trail-less, terrorist associating occupant in the Oval Office will never be subjected to remotely the same journalistic rigor that will be directed at whomever his Republican opponent turns out to be.


That is one of the best lines I have ever read since  Ofeckless announced his candidicy for prez.  Beautiful.

106 The only upside of the Obama presidency and the media bias is that if a white Republican President had presided over such a destruction of the black economy and black living standards in America there would be riots in the streets. Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson would be leading marches and riots throughout the country. They'd be calling the situation in Detroit "genocide" and an "ethnic cleansing".

But they aren't because it's Obama that has presided over this economy. American blacks have suffered more than any other group. Millions of blacks who had made it to the middle class have had their dreams kicked out as they tumbled down the economic ladder.

I'm sure if a white Republican takes office in 2012, Sharpton will be back on the streets within a week. I also expect if a white Republican takes office we'll get some new hispanic versions of Sharpton and Jesse looking to make a name and fortune for themselves by riding the tiger of racial and ethnic hatred.

It worked for Al and Jesse, those are two very wealthy dudes. And neither has worked a day in their life.

107
So, you see, it's not Obama's fault that he's a feckless dog-vomit slime mold.  It's the fault of "the office." 

True.  Still, it's nice to see Teh Won losing some of his luster.  I'll take whatever I can get, at this point.

108

It's very simple. 

The news media is SURE that Obama couldn't possibly have supported the "kill teams".  He wants to TALK to our enemies, not kill them.

They MUST have been authorized by Bush & Cheney.  Bloodthirsty Republican haters!

And EVERYONE surely agrees with this, because it's so obvious.

Ergo, no need for further discussion!

(Unless, of course, the media decides to camp out in front of Bush's or Cheney's homes and ambush them with cameras rolling as Cindy Sheehan and her Code Pink protestors dust off their signs from 2006....)

109

Also interesting to note that Tomahawk missiles stopped hitting civilians.

And wedding parties proceed now without a hitch. It's a miracle.

110 Dark humor is a part of the military culture, the same with aggressive macho behavior and the like.  It's a mechanism to cope with the stresses that military personnel, especially those at the tip of the spear, face day to day.

You dehumanize because it's the only way you can function after watching some guy get blown to pieces because he was planting an IED. 

I remember reading a story about PTSD among UAV operators.  They'd spend days watching a target, getting his pattern of life, watching him play with his kids and act like a normal human being.  And then they'd get the order to kill him with the push of a button.  That stuff sticks with you, and you have to find a way to handle it.  I've seen a lot of guys who've hit their limit.  Usually, they're halfway into a bottle all the time.

because Bush is in Texas, fighting a kinetic chainsaw action against rebel mesquite forces, and not in the WH

116 A 3rd ID soldier was killed in combat operations in......Iraq.....a week ago.  Didn't our CiC tell us combat ops were over? 

117

>They're programmed to target all the "less brown" people.

 

excuse me- we aren't 'launching Tomahawk missiles'

those are 'peace strikes'

118

As much as I hate the media double standard, I can't really get excited over the prospect of this story becoming front page news. 

I wouldn't suggest a complete media blackout, but if even one American (military or civilian) gets killed or wounded as an indirect result of the story getting widespread press, it's too high a price to pay.

Besides, I doubt even deliberate attempts to pin some of the blame on Obama would gain much traction.

122 I think last week drudge had three links about the story.  One of the links concerned the soldiers' moms reaction and she's not a happy camper.  I then was amazed by the speed with which this matter was dealt with.  Last week I was feeling that something is not right about the entire story, the entire thing.  I still feel that way.

123 119 As much as I hate the media double standard, I can't really get excited over the prospect of this story becoming front page news. 

Agreed.  But the point is the soul-withering hypocrisy of Obama & Co.:  The president can't authorize military action without Congress--until Obama does it.  Military-commission trials are bad--until Obama authorizes them.  The government is shutting out the press--until Biden locks his pool reporter in a closet.  Etc., etc.

61 If there was concrete evidence that Barry was a modern day Jack the Ripper, I mean video of Barry slashing away at victims the MFM would cover it up for him

The Onion has that one covered.  Genuinely funny, too:

We're over 100 comments and no one has brought this up?    The perfect summary MBM's coverage of Dear Leader.

Crap--beat me to it.

126 Why are they covering it up? Because it will make Zero look worse than he already does, and most of us won't make a big stink about it, either. Easy money.

127

treating the taking of human lives like a scene in a video game is a bit troublesome.

We need our guys to be fierce; you hesitate in a firefight, and you're dead.

That being said, they're supposed to destroy the enemey, not farmers. I don't believe a thing Rolling Stone ever says, but if these guys were wasting civilians, and it seems the Army thinks they were, bury them under Fort Leavenworth.

128 Bias.

It's not the longest river in Egypt.

Kermit Gosnell. 

OK so we don't plan on covering a few stories you'd like to see us cover... we can't cover any story that reflects badly on the president everything.

If anyone is wondering WHY Obama would keep his original birth certificate under wraps consider the two obvious possibilities:

1) It lists him as "caucasion" because looking at his mother, a doctor would have chosen the obvious alternative.

2) It lists his religion as "muslim" because his father was and later listed Barry Sorreto as one on the admission papers to a maddras.

Either one would be in direct conflict with, and would dammage, his magnificently cultivated "black christian" image facade.

At lights out on the USS America in 1986, the ship's chaplain prayed for the Liban sailors that were on sortie to defend Kaddaffy's Line of Death.

The pics of the burning, sinking vessels with crew in the water made the rounds in hours.  

132 Where is all the talk about "this was standard operating procedure", "soldiers dont' do these things without approval from up high" and "don't blame the soldiers blame the leaders who let this happen"?

133 98 In the NYT slideshow/story they had a caption next to a picture of some lovely children with bright eyes that said the team would put kids in front and behind of their vehicles and then run them over. It looked like BS to my shit-spotting eyes.<<<The Hungarian

Moi aussi.  The idea of tossing candy and then killing the bright-eyed young things with an evil laugh--it was cornball.  I'm sorry, but Rolling Stone is written by stupid people for even stupider people, and I cannot credit their tales of woe.

134  First of all this the first time I'm glad the MFM is not reporting on this because my old rifle company just stepped for the mountains a couple months ago. Here's the reality of the situation. Obama is not responsible for what Joe Shit the ragman spec-4 and some staff NCOs did. That falls soley on the immediate chain of command. But is the media treating Obie differently than W of course.

Why not? Every word is true. I'll stake my honor on it.

25- Sponge: " That being said.....treating the taking of human lives like a scene in a video game is a bit troublesome."
I don't want to sound like a dick but you've never been in a firefight I'm assuming. Generally in my experience when you finally figure where the shooting is coming (which is confusing and very agitating) and you can find and fix the enemy and you waste them with fires it's a very rewarding experience and yes we're going to cheer. Especially when you're in the infantry. That's what we train to do. We train to kill, smash, and maim durkas. It's job satisfaction. You know if you go to football practice your whole life and you and your team never play in a game but one day your team plays and you win...it's the same thing.

137 The main perp is from Wasilla, AK?!  If the MSM does decide to delve into the story, Sarah Palin no doubt will be have found to have incited him with her lack of civility!

138

There is something seriously wrong with my country.

There is no truth in the media anymore.

Its lies shams and outright deceit.

Too much evil in the hearts of men.

139 I wasn't aware that a 17 page story in Rolling Stone, exposure on national radio on Michael Smerconish's show, and Huffington Post constituted ignoring and covering up.

140 A lot of stupid reporters need to get punched in their stupid fat mouths.

I don't see a real answer to the problem, too many people just take what they're given, it's not like you can force people to wake up and smell the crap that's being shoveled into their heads by these leftist shills who have barricaded themselves in the nightly news and major papers and are keeping all the other voices out.

You can't even talk to liberals anymore, not so they can understand.

I have real fear that we're approaching the end of functional Western civilization, and these mooks will be cheering right up to the point where they get shoved up against a wall by their "saviors" and executed.

141 I wasn't aware that a 17 page story in Rolling Stone, exposure on national radio on Michael Smerconish's show, and Huffington Post constituted ignoring and covering up.

The universe of things of which you are unaware is boundless.  Get back to us when the New York Times runs 36 front page stories on the subject in a three week period.
