Abu Ghraib update 
Via Baldilocks comes this link from a blogger who was there during the Abu Ghraib riot:
Bob Herbert of the NYT has a column where he presents a Conscientious Objectors word as final. Trouble is, I was there too and closer to the action than Aidan Delgado the mechanic.

The compound where the riot took place, compound 8, was run by my Company, the 870th MP Co. The riot also was an escape attempt. It wasn't just a few stone throwers; the sky was black with throw debris, which effectively suppressed the compound towers from their overwatch duties. The stones being thrown represented a deadly force threat. Some of them were head size. It was only when the riot became a danger of a serious breakout attempt and less than lethal force(rubber shot from M203 and rubber point munitions from 12 GA shotguns) had been applied to no effect was the request for deadly force made. When permission was granted, two soldiers fired on the ring leaders. 3 were killed outright, ending the riot immediately. One more died later and 12 more were wounded. I know both of the soldiers who fired; they are good people and only did what they had to do to keep others from further harm. Given that one of the soldiers was using a M249, it could have been a bloodbath. Both soldiers showed remarkable restraint in picking their targets and only using necesarry force. There was a AR 15-6 investigation and CID also investigated. The shootings were found to be justified and both soldiers were decorated for their actions.

This Delgado guy was a mechanic; he was no where near those compounds. I also highly doubt he "confronted" the SGT who fired; he wouldn't have even known who he was. Different unit, not working anywhere near the compounds.


That was my understanding of the situation at Abu Ghraib that day, too.

Thrown rocks are lethal. I mean, ask any Bible scholar about stonings.

Now, had Delgado actually been an eyewitness to the event, he would have understood why his buddy fired on the rioters. But why would Delgado, a mechanic, be screwing around on the towers?

Comments:
I just visited your blog. I am collecting information to see where I can improve my traffic and my own blogs and websites. When I do a search, I use the the following keywords: web site traffic monitor to locate the best information resources out there related to the theme of my marketing research. Then I personally visit the blogs that stand out. Yours was one of them.

Your blog came to my list of interesting sites to look at and see how you're marketing yourself, how many people visit and leave comments, what kind of comments, etc.

Now some blogs don't quite match what I am looking for but that's OK. With the information I'm gathering, I can compile a wide selection of topics, design ideas, etc. so I can come up with my own blog and hopefully make it successful.

I hope you don't mind me posting on your blog but hey, what's a blog without input and comments from visitors, right?

I always hate those one-liner comments when people don't take the time to even compose a decent message. I wish you much success with your blog, your marketing efforts, life in general and everything that you do and hopefully your blog will continue to get lots of visitors.

Speaking of visitors, if you're interest in getting additional FREE, real traffic, not some fake hit to your blog or sites, don't hesitate to stop by
web site traffic monitor and register. Free. Nothing to buy, no memberships, no gimmicks. Only REAL live people clicking and seeing your site or blog for at least 25 seconds. No autosurfing. FYI. Use it if you'd like. It's FREE Traffic.

Sincerely,

Greetings to you Blogger. search engine submissions related information is of great interest to me and so I am very often online checking it out. It was during one of those times that I came accross your site. I spent some time checking out your content even though I was really looking for search engine submissions related stuff and that this post did not really give me the answers that I was searching for. The fact is your site was informative enough for me to have spent a few minutes checking it out. Well, keep the fire burning and all the best.

One of the better results I saw from my fasting experience was that I have more self control over my eating habits. I have always been a binge type of eater. After my fast, I felt like I could restrain myself easier. It is proberbly a mental attribute. I mean I can go without eating for 7 days then I sure can keep myself from eating something I shouldn't.

What a way to meet your spouse! It was my birthday night and my ex who had been wanting to get back together with me, since who knows when, takes me out to dinner and a broadway show and we get back around midnight. Then, I sign online to check my messages and someone sent me a random birthday card. That turns out to be my spouse 9 months later. Amazing. It is just like happening to stumble upon a site about Best web page host and finding everything on that topic has to offer. But it may not be as lucky as finding my perfect soul mate. But who knows, it could be better. I dunno.

RSS feed is the latest craze in online publishing, but what exactly is RSS? RSS or Rich Site Syndication is a format similar to XML, and is used by publishers to make their content available to others in a format that can be universally understood.
