I feel genuine pity for these guys. Mostly because they are just grunts who got caught being stupid. Whereas the architects of the war are opening libraries.

I feel not a shred of pity for anyone that opens up on a crowd of people and keeps blasting away till 17 men, women, and children are lying dead in an ever expanding pool of blood. Caught doing something stupid doesn't cover this.

Yes folks way up the food chain have hands coated in blood but these 4 shitbirds are in every way responsible for the above occurrence and are receiving their just deserves for it.

These guys are animals but yeah fair point. Bush is responsible for 150000 dead and millions of refugees and he's at home painting shitty pictures or whatever

These guys were obviously guilty, and they should spend the rest of their lives in prison.

Sure the people higher up should face some consequences as well, but that doesn't mean these guys are any less guilty.

huh....just found out these were State Department goons. Interesting.

It was guaranteed that tragic incidents like this one would happen once armed private contractors were placed above UCMJ and Iraqi law.

These goons were literally killing Iraqis for sport while we were there allegedly to "liberate" them. Let them rot.

As mentioned above though, again the low-level guys get the sentences while the architects of this epic disaster walk free and appear on cable news to offer their discredited opinions. And also write books, paint dogs and rake in six-figure speaking fees from eager audiences of senior citizens wearing bolo ties.
