The Injustice System of America


It seems as though America can not slap the fine men and woman that defend this great country of ours enough. I was troubled to learn that the commander of the troops involved in a politically orchestrated massacre that was not [dubbed as the "Haditha Massacre"] is facing the legal sword of injustice once again, despite the fact it has been four years after the incident.

Back in March, the Navy-Marine Corps Court of Criminal Appeals authored a unanimous three-judge decision that essentially upheld the dismissal of charges against Lt. Col. Jeffrey Chessani (USMC). The charges were on the grounds of unlawful command influence. Lt. Col. Chessani has been prosecuted for his involvement the so-called Haditha Massacre on November 19, 2005. This event involved our brave Marines that were ambushed by insurgents. In the subsequent firefight 24 Iraqis were killed.

Obviously we should have had tea with these nice old insurgents and offered them an opportunity to decapitate a couple of American all in the name of good will. Everyone knows if you just tolerate their point of view they will go away!

The investigation involved more than 60 agents with the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS). Lt. Col. Chessani has been victorious in every round of the legal escapade. Despite this fundamental truth though the commandant of the Marine Corps, Gen. James Conway, has decided to keep the case open by referring it to a new general. What this alls means is the charges against Lt. Col. Chessani where dismissed by judge, Col. Folsom, without prejudice, the commandant could open up the charges again. I for one say enough is enough. This poor man has been dragged through the System of Injustice for defending our country and it is time someone puts a stop to this nonsense.

Perhaps Mr. Obama is man enough to pardon Lt. Col. Chessani. Don’t hold your breath.

I am sure Obama’s Saudi King that he bows down to would not accept such actions from a rogue puppet from Chicago. But then again what do I know. I am just some lowly preacher standing up for what is right and commenting on what is so wrong in America today.
