My, people are jumping to conclusions. A Muslum American soldier is being held and questioned in yesterday’s attack on officers of the 101st Airborne. Some folks are already saying this is part of a larger plot. Nevermind that CNN reported that the man was said to have been reprimanded for insubordination recently. Military criminal investigators said the suspect was recently reprimanded for insubordination and was told he would stay behind when his unit left camp for Iraq, Time reporter Jim Lacey said. That certainly didn’t play a role.

Look, war is hell, people, and sometimes soldiers snap. I would be surprized if this was anything more than just a soldier under a hell of a lot of stress and pressure snapping and taking it out on his officers. The same officers who told him he would not be going into battle. Can you imagine being sent to the Gulf for months, training, working, sweating, laboring only to be told that you will be left behind? Hell, imagine being in the 101st Airborne Division and told that! SNAP!

I’m not even going to address the bigotry behind some comments.
