[QUOTE=theking]Clueless as ever...aren't you? The Army performed their SOP "basic checks". He was a Reservist...Reservists are not elite troops. Two days a month and two weeks of training per year does not turn out very well trained troops. Reservists are civilians in uniform. Guarding prisoners was within his MOS and his unit was called to active duty thus he was assigned along with his unit to Abu Garade.QUOTE]
Well obviously there basic checks are not good enough, there for negligent. On one hand you bring up all this evidence to show the guys history, then dismiss the fact that the Army did not find it out before.

Would you think the same about "Basic Checks" that missed out a teacher had a record of child abuse?

The checks were not good enough of that only a fool would deny. The previous abuse was easy enough to find when they needed it. should of been found before.

As for Iraq not being a shit sandwich, I guess it depends on where you are standing.

In ten years Iraq will be a country ruled by Mullahs who will be totallly anti the US. Like Vietnam the US leaders should really have thought the whole thing through.
