A video has surfaced of what appear to be US Marines pissing on the bodies of some dead dudes.
And people are pissed.
From TMZ:
Muslim organizations across the United States tell TMZ they are outraged by the disturbing footage which appears to show Marines urinating on the bodies of dead Taliban fighters.
"We are appalled by the video" ... a rep for the Muslim Public Affair Council tells us ... adding, "We ask Secretary of Defense Leon Penetta to reprimand these soldiers. These soldiers don’t stand for what our nation and our army and armed forces fight for on a daily basis."
The Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) had a similar opinion -- saying, "We condemn this apparent desecration of the dead as a violation of our nation’s military regulations and of international laws of war prohibiting such disgusting and immoral actions."
CAIR adds, "If verified as authentic, the video shows behavior that is totally unbecoming of American military personnel and that could ultimately endanger other soldiers and civilians."
TMZ broke the story ... the U.S. Marine Corps is conducting an investigation into the footage to find out when the video was shot, where it was shot and if the men are indeed U.S. Marines.
Alright this is just shitty all the way around. First for the soldiers, why take a fucking video of this shit? I mean do it and laugh and whatever but you nkow the video is going to get attention if someone finds it. And don't list your battalion and shit either. Second I think people need to understand that war fucks people up. Any army commits fucked up shit because you become more prone to violence and sadism in a war-zone.
That being said if these guys aren't dishonorably discharged that is some fucking bullshit.
