Navy SEALs Face Charges for Capturing Most-Wanted Terrorist

Can you believe the world we live in?

NavyTimes.com reports that three SEALs are facing charges of alleged mishandling of a high-value target. The SEALS captured Ahmed Hashim Abed – who allegedly was the mastermind of the 2004 ambush in Fallujah that resulted in the deaths and subsequent mutilation of four Blackwater employees – one a former SEAL himself, two former Rangers, and a former Army Night Stalker. The SEALs refused non-judicial punishment and opted for the court-martial.

One defense attorney said they had refused to accept nonjudicial punishment, administrative actions that some in the military may consider as a admission of guilt.

Neal Puckett, a defense attorney who is representing McCabe, said the SEALs are being essentially charged for allegedly giving the detainee “a punch in the gut.”

The “alleged” terrorist claims to have a fat lip. How much more FUBAR is our military going to become? For crying out loud: Even the French military is attacking the pirate terrorists off the coast of Somalia, while our Navy can only do so after finding a loophole in the Obama administration’s legal gauntlet.
