Letter: An omnipotent one

Editor, Daily News:

I have closely followed the alleged "mass, cold-blooded" killings of innocent civilians in Iraq by our vicious troops and thinking, if this is so, they must be punished for their actions.

But I, like you, do not have the true facts yet to make a judgment of their guilt, although the far left has already tried them via such nefarious people as John Murtha, Nancy Pelosi, John Kerry, left-wing radio hosts and Hollywood luminaries. It's enough to convince some that our troops are indeed evil, but worrisome to me, as I believe in the rule of law that one is innocent until the facts are in and a judicial body finds one guilty.

But eureka! Here in Naples we've an omnipotent one who is an all-in-one investigator, prosecutor, judge and jury, with all the true details on hand — per his mind — that proves our troops are guilty. Hopefully, his Monday letter gets to the military judicial branch, as with his facts in hand, they should easily get indictments bringing these men to trial.

I write, of course, about Michael Rodriguez's body of proof of troops tying hands, burning children and killing babies, crippled men and a pregnant woman who ran a barricade refusing to stop — and all this being done deliberately, while laughing at the victims.

But wait, I forgot. I don't visit the crazy left bloggers' sites that spew out such lies. Pity! I could join the chorus of hatred of the military, shutting my eyes to the real problem of terrorism.
