Marine's song about killing draws ire....

WASHINGTON - A music video posted to the Internet, telling a tale about a U.S. Marine killing members of an Iraqi family, is being condemned by an Islamic group and investigated by the Marine Corps.

The four-minute video, called “Hadji Girl,” appears to be sung by a Marine in front of a cheering audience. The lyrics talk about the Marine gunning down members of an Iraqi woman’s family after they confront him with automatic weapons.

When you send young men into combat by lies and with no operating plan.

Not to mention the commanders allowing discipline and order to deteriorate to the point where officers are afraid of the soldiers. An embedded reporter wrote a story about this.
