What is the problem with our government that we do not take every measure to defend our troops at all costs? It makes me feel like my safety is at risk. How can we justify letting Mario Lazano go to trial in Italy without American representation? Our officials and our citizens should not judge our soldiers on their actions especially when their defense of our country helps to keep the enemy at bay. I am truly sorry if innocent people die, but people die every day and when you are in a war zone.... you better be extremely careful, especially when there are a bunch of nuts that are willing to blow themselves up to serve their god while taking out as many innocent people as they can. I am a American with a French/Italian blood line, and I am proud to say that I thank God every day that my ancestors chose to leave their countries for greener pastures in the US.
The decisions that the Governments of France and Italy make are an embarrassment to me, but our government is failing to stand up for what is right. Protect our troops at all cost, and win the war at all cost!
Stop tying the hands of our troops and win this war against terror. The "Boots on the Ground" strategy is a joke. The only time a soldier should have to be deployed is after the the area has been secured through intense indiscriminate bombing. If you want to give the enemy a chance, allow the people a 24 hour period to leave, then good luck! I believe that when the soldier that is defending my rights puts his boots on the ground, this government better defend everything he does short of rape and stealing other than that, ALL BETS ARE OFF. Democrat/Republican/CITIZEN protect and defend Mario like he protected you!
