These Men Deserve More.

Kit Lange has been tirelessly investigating the circumstances surrounding the Pendleton 8 Marines; young brave men who have been held in solitary confinement, in chains, and treated much like animals during their incarceration in conditions that make Guantanamo Bay look like a summer camp; for what appears to be trumped up charges.

Please go there, where Kit presents hard evidence that there was undue command influence in the prosecution. Links are in the post that give the entire background of the case, as well.

These men deserve more. I call on Congress to open an investigation into the proceedings of what amounts to a kangaroo court. These men, like the Haditha Marines, put their lives on the line to defend the Constitution of the United States, and are ironically summarily denied those same protections that they had sworn to defend.
