NAVY SEALs Capture Terrorist, and Now Face Charges
Navy SEALs have secretly captured one of the most wanted terrorists in Iraq — the alleged mastermind of the murder and mutilation of four Blackwater USA security guards in Fallujah in 2004. And three of the SEALs who captured him are now facing criminal charges, sources told FoxNews.com.
The three, all members of the Navy's elite commando unit, have refused non-judicial punishment — called an admiral's mast — and have requested a trial by court-martial.
Ahmed Hashim Abed, whom the military code-named "Objective Amber," told investigators he was punched by his captors — and he had the bloody lip to prove it.
Now, instead of being lauded for bringing to justice a high-value target, three of the SEAL commandos, all enlisted, face assault charges and have retained lawyers.
Matthew McCabe, a Special Operations Petty Officer Second Class (SO-2), is facing three charges: dereliction of performance of duty for willfully failing to safeguard a detainee, making a false official statement, and assault.
Petty Officer Jonathan Keefe, SO-2, is facing charges of dereliction of performance of duty and making a false official statement.
Petty Officer Julio Huertas, SO-1, faces those same charges and an additional charge of impediment of an investigation.
The three SEALs will be arraigned separately on Dec. 7. Another three SEALs — two officers and an enlisted sailor — have been identified by investigators as witnesses but have not been charged.

So a terrorist who commited horrible acts on their victims got a fat lip. I would have liked to give him just what he gave to his victims...Thanks for a job well done Navy Seals. My advice- take no prisoners.
TheRaven
It's a pathetic statement about the quality of our current cadre of senior military "leaders" that not a single flag officer has thrown his stars in Obama's face ove this. This Administration is exactly what our previous generations had in mind when they coined the phrase, "enemies of the Constitution, foreign and domestic"... Letting these heroes burn over this incident is a complete breaking of faith. If you've got a son or daughter considering joining the US military I strongly suggest you sit down with them and discuss the increasing liklihood that our US government will wage war on them if they're successful in waging war on our enemies.
Johannes
The sniveling communists are either too stupid to understand (none of them have ever risked their lives for a cause) or they're lying and they do understand that in a combat enviornment when the mission is a snatch and grab, the mission is to bring the object back alive IF POSSIBLE. If he gets roughed up or ends up with a fat lip well, that's war "SUE ME"!
The SEALS are not police you idiots! They are not bound by civil law in these cases, but the communists in power will pretend not to know this and do everything they can to tear down the military.....................

'The nation which forgets its defenders will be itself forgotten.' I heard this quote from Calvin Coolidge the other day and thought it was great! I think it applies very well to what is happening to these heroes. This savage creature that they captured truly doesn't deserve to the breathe the same air as they do.
Proud Military Mom
What is wrong with our country? This is absurd! It's time to QUIT being politically correct and allow our CIA and military do their jobs. Tying their hands behind their backs is WRONG! Do we want a safer America? Our enemies in the Middle East are laughing! These Navy Seals should be applauded for their capture!
conserve1
Shame, shame on this administration for allowing these charges to exist. . Talk about a moral booster for our military. This guy deserves more than a bloody lip. Where is the investigation into the people holding positions in this administration?

Arrest obama and his Chicago thugs as enemies of the state; award the Navy Seals the Nobel Peace Prize---they actually earned it.
jerry
this is realy sicknin ggoing after america nave seals the best of the best in the world that crrep beheaded people but he got a fat lip see he must have heard about obama giving them rights other wise he never wouldve complained

Nope, never did.

What do you expect from the leaderless leader of obammy and friends. One fool after another and not one of them understands what a real leader is.
NonLibber
Giving terrorists constitiutional rights and lawyers. Good job Obama, are you going to move the terrorists into the white house next? These brave Seals put their lives on the line to do their duty and instead of giving them medals they are given lawsuits. A terrorist got a bloody lip, compare that to the video of Daniel Pearl being beheaded. This administration is trying to humanize these terrorists instead of bring them to justice. These terrorist trials are going to be a media circus, look at what is happening already!
my view
I agree with your post. I just think the white house is already filled with terrorists.
funsailing
great Post{
Toomuchspin
I think we should take liberals, arm them as Frenchmen (white flags) and send them to do the job of seals. Good riddance!

They already have the white flags.........and I don't think running screaming like little girls is what the SEALS do.....is it?
ALTACE
I wish we had a president that loved his country. President George W. Bush would have already dealth with this idiocy. He would NEVER allow this to happen. In my eyes, these three navy seals are true American Heroes. Thanks for your service and thanks for catching this muslim terriorist.

Ah yes, Barack Obama, the star protégé of the notorious Marxist Saul Alinsky: The Great Community Organizer. The Alinksy Way: bring about the collapse of the economic system through orchestrated political crises for the express purpose of introducing a new goverment system, which abolishes the evil bourgeoisie corporations of capitalism and introduces a socialist utopia that will finally bring justice for the proletariat! At last the dialectic will have enclosed the masses within its box of subjugation and Saul can smile. The means to reach this goal are of no consequence, the end is all that matters. This is all done under the guise of "hope and change."
