Again, your shameful, disgusting fellow souldiers who did that to the Somali can go deal with that history and you can shutup now.

My candle making skill (shoddy as it is) comes from school trips to Black Creek Pionere Village... my baking skills (also somewhat shoddy) comes from trial and error
I use my now 8 years of military expience (12 years in the community) to make judgments... and they are just that judgements not the final word. Ultimately those who are qualified will pass a final judgement on this Marine... I just don't see how people can defend his alleged actions.
Oh as for Somalia... you should say soldier -singular- the others sentanced in the case were guilty of failing to stop him, or command and leadership failures that would allow this the torture and murder to happen in the first place.... just as the platoon commander and senior NCO will be held legally accountable for the actions of the single Marine... it's the nature of military law and command structure, you are responsible in part for the actions of your subordinants - if you had ever served you'd understand at least that basic standard.
