Some people get really tired of getting this kind of thing in their e-mails! I know I do! So why do I read it - and send it on? 'Cause I need to continually be reminded of WHAT our young men and women are fighting against - while I sit in my nice warm, comfortable house - and complain about the cost of things! TOO many of our children, are paying the ultimate price!!!!!! D
Lieutenant General Chuck Pitman
Semper Fi!
This 'Letter of Apology' was written by Lieutenant General Chuck Pitman, US Marine Corps, Retired:
For good and ill, the Iraqi prisoner abuse mess will remain an issue. On the one hand, right thinking Americans will abhor the stupidity of the actions while on the other hand, political glee will take control and fashion this minor event into some modern day massacre.
I humbly offer my opinion here:
I am sorry that the last seven times we Americans took up arms and sacrificed the blood of our youth; it was in the defense of Muslims ( Bosnia , Kosovo, Gulf War 1, Kuwait , etc.)
I am sorry that no such call for an apology upon the extremists came after 9/11.
I am sorry that all of the murderers on 9/11 were Islamic Arabs.
I am sorry that most Arabs and Muslims have to live in squalor under savage dictatorships.
I am sorry that their leaders squander their wealth.
I am sorry that their governments breed hate for the US in their religious schools, mosques, and government-controlled media.
I am sorry that Yasser Arafat was kicked out of every Arab country and high-jacked the Palestinian 'cause.'
I am sorry that no other Arab country will take in or offer more than a token amount of financial help to those same Palestinians.
I am sorry that the U. S. A. has to step in and be the biggest financial supporter of poverty stricken Arabs while the insanely wealthy Arabs blame the USA for all their problems.
I am sorry that our own left wing, our media, and our own brainwashed liberal masses do not understand any of this (from the misleading vocal elements of our society like radical liberal professors, CNN and the NY TIMES).
I am sorry the United Nations scammed the poor people of Iraq out of the 'food for oil' money so they could get rich while the common folk suffered.
I am sorry that some Arab governments pay the families of homicide bombers upon their death
I am sorry that those same bombers are brainwashed thinking they will receive 72 virgins in 'paradise.'
I am sorry that the homicide bombers think pregnant women, babies, children, the elderly and other noncombatant civilians are legitimate targets.
I am sorry that our troops die to free more Arabs from the gang rape rooms and the filling of mass graves of dissidents of their own making.
I am sorry that Muslim extremists have killed more Arabs than any other group.
I am sorry that foreign trained terrorists are trying to seize control of Iraq and return it to a terrorist state.
I am sorry we don't drop a few dozen Daisy cutters on Fallujah.
I am sorry every time terrorists hide they find a convenient 'Holy Site.'
I am sorry they didn't apologize for driving a jet into the World Trade Center that collapsed and severely damaged Saint Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church - one of our Holy Sites.
I am sorry they didn't apologize for flight 93 and 175, the USS Cole, the embassy bombings, the murders and beheadings of Nick Berg and Daniel Pearl, etc....etc!
I am sorry Michael Moore is American; he could feed a medium sized village in Africa .
America will get past this latest absurdity. We will punish those responsible because that is what we do.
I am sorry the Barack Hussein Obama may be elected president of the United States when he doesn't have a clue on how to be a strong Commander-in-chief in a world filled with Muslim extremists who will do whatever it needs to do to destroy the lives of civilized people while killing innocent men, women and children in order to bring a change that is beneficial to all Islamic terrorists worldwide.
I am sorry that voters on the liberal left don't understand the frightening changes that are taking place in the Muslim world and what these changes will do to this world in which we live.
I am sorry that the Democratic Party has been highjacked by Socialists and Communists right under the very noses of those who take pride in calling themselves democrats.
We hang out our dirty laundry for the entire world to see. We move on. That's one of the reasons we are hated so much. We don't hide this stuff like all those Arab countries that are now demanding an apology.
Deep down inside, when most Americans saw this reported in the news, we were like - so what? We lost hundreds and made fun of a few prisoners. Sure, it was wrong, sure, it dramatically hurts our cause, but until captured we were trying to kill these same prisoners. Now we're supposed to wring our hands because a few were humiliated?
Our compassion is tempered with the vivid memories of our own people killed, mutilated and burnt amongst a joyous crowd of celebrating Fallujahans.
If you want an apology from this American, you're going to have a long wait! You have a better chance of finding those seventy-two virgins.
Chuck Pitman
Lieutenant General, USMC
Pass this on to your friends if you agree.
If not, I am sorry I offended you by passing on the facts.

General Pitman never wrote this; something LIKE this was written by Prof. Mike Adams, otherwise known as a "mysogynistic douchebag" in 2004!
http://www.amptoons.com/blog/archives/2009/03/30/the-dumbest-thing-mike-s-adams-has-written-so-far-today/
So: carry on, rightards. Simplistic, inaccurate, teh stooopid, bigoted, racist as usual.
Whot a sorprize... NOT!
Yeah, whoever wrote this is sorry.
You're not sorry at all, asshole, so spare me.
Hilarious! I am sorry that the last seven times we Americans took up arms and sacrificed the blood of our youth; it was in the defense of Muslims ( Bosnia , Kosovo, Gulf War 1, Kuwait , etc.)
It was the last seven times, exactly, except I can only remember four of them. Oh yeah, and we were really defending oil for two of them, which by the way, were the same event...
"Homicide bombers" is a dead giveaway that the writer watches Faux News.
Hmm... let's see: Gulf War I AND Kuwait... wait a minute... isn't that same thing? Duh.
And WHY did we do that??? for oil. for the Bush Crime Family syndicate. So Dickhead Cheney could get rich.
Please spare me the phoney whining about boo hoo hoo the A-rabs are teh horrid, and we are so victimized by them.
Go whine to George HW Bush, why doncha? Or the skull of St. Raygun!!
I am certainly SORRY that Reagan & both Bushes were POTUS, and I hereby apologize for THAT to all of you readers of RWF!!
"I am sorry I offended you by passing on the facts."
I wouldn't be offended at all if this was actually truthful FACTS, but since it's not in any way factual or truthful, including the fact that it's not even written by General Pitman, then, yeah, now that you mention it, I do find this AND you, Mr/MS RWF, incredibly OFFENSIVE.
Get back to me when you have some reality-based, "real" "true" facts to present to me, mmmk?
The US supports Palestine financially against the Israelis?
Ha, I almost spit coffee all over my computer screen.
Did anyone else think this: "I am sorry Michael Moore is American; he could feed a medium sized village in Africa" came out of nowhere?
I was reading along, racist this, racist that, silly rhetorical device, anger building, racist, racist ... HOLY SHIT CANNIBALISM!
What is wrong with these people?
Plus, is he implying that the only thing saving Moore from being fed to Africans by America is his nationality? Do they think we do this? (It wouldn't be the weirdest thing they believe, but still...)
