Lol! 1 thing to say...

Griffith University - Get Assed!

Dear Readers.

Of all the preposterous things I have ever seen in my short 19 years of life...

A U.S soldier was sentenced to 100 years after being found guilty for the rape and subsequent murder of a fourteen year old girl and the murder of her family (the girls mother, father and 6 year old sister). OMG you may mouth as you read this... however, this occured in a small town outside Baghdad in Iraq. Soooo how many of you are going to day "serves em right" or "they should all die"?

 

Does anyone remember what happened in Vietnam and other dishonourable wars? Didn't our leaders say that it "wasn't going to happen again"? When the war in Iraq is over, are we (Aussies) or are they (Yankees) going to spit on our soldiers? Are we going to have more Woodstocks (hopefully without the bad hair, lack of bras and copious drug consumption) and nation wide peace rallys?

I highly doubt it... but this is what came out of Vietnam and other dishonourable wars.

 

However, there is one FUNDAMENTAL DIFFERENCE; many of the soldiers who returned from from these dishonourable wars suffered from shellshock (and many committed suicide because of it). Why is this a fundamental difference? Well... think about it for a second - those 5 soldiers involved in the rape of that 14 year old girl PLANNED it. They PLANNED to have the family murdered to cover up what they were PLANNING to do. They collaboratively PLANNED to do something MORALLY and SPIRITUALLY wrong. They didn't even CONSIDER that it was wrong... they didn't even think twice. The ONLY reason they are feeling bad and appologizing is because THEY GOT CAUGHT. They do NOT have a conscience!! All they could say was "sorry mum sorry dad I didn't mean to hurt you". WHERE are the appologies for the Iraqi people?

 

Fair enough... there is a war going on, riteo, whatever BUT what about the innocence of the fourteen year old girl and her six year old sister?! What about their parents? Weren't the soldiers sent over to keep the peace, protect citizens and defend against terrorists?

 

These 5 U.S soldiers should be given the death penalty. They were there to keep the peace and protect the citizens from the terrorists but they BECAME the terrorists, THEY deserve to be infront of a firing squad.  

 

Grrr...
