Comments on: Investigation Into Video Of Marine Throwing Dog Off Cliff In Iraq http://www.itchmo.com/investigation-into-video-of-marine-throwing-dog-off-cliff-in-iraq-4842 Essential news for cats, dogs and pet owners. Sat, 21 Nov 2009 02:38:08 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.2.2 By: Miller http://www.itchmo.com/investigation-into-video-of-marine-throwing-dog-off-cliff-in-iraq-4842#comment-263752 Miller Thu, 22 Oct 2009 08:28:08 +0000 http://www.itchmo.com/investigation-into-video-of-marine-throwing-dog-off-cliff-in-iraq-4842#comment-263752 As a dog lover in the Army, I hated to see this video and also know it's not the first or the last. I have had over 11 dogs so far, and will have another as soon as my husband decides what will work for us. You understand that all blame belongs to David Motari for throwing the dog. BUT just as stress in everyday work and problems at home cause emotional and physical diress, not every person can deal with the high stress, pressure and rapid repetition that war provides many soldiers that are not quipped with the support they should have either from home or from fellow soldiers. Even though this is an act that is disgusting, and immoral, don't hate David Motari and absolutely don't blame Marines for this. Thousands of servicemembers own a dog, or dogs, they agree with you that this is wrong, but people who do this to dogs should get punished and they need help, whether they are in the military or not. But, hating them for it doesn't prove anything. As a dog lover in the Army, I hated to see this video and also know it’s not the first or the last.

Hopefully they will live for at least a week until the wild dogs and finally the buzzards eat their flesh and pluck their eyes while they go mad with the realization of what they have done and what I hope they have to look forward to.

We want to remember the men and women who have fought so bravely have done it with honor, then you have these punks that abuse their situation in believing they can do anything they like. They REPRESENT the USA!! They may be over seas but they are still property of the USA and must be held accountable for their actions as they would on North American soil! And for that matter, further ivestigated for other alligations, if they would do this to a puppy what would they do to the children of Iran and Iraq?? I love animals but that is not the issue. It is principle, morals and judgment. And when you represent the American army you should do it with care and honor at ALL times! It is a shame that the bad apples of this war is tanting the rest.

One that has started wars but never ended one. 90% of the comments here have deep hatred written all over them. That truly is a shame! I agree that these people need to be punished! not as marines but as human beings! The marines do not condone this behavior nor do they train them to hate. They train them to protect and to fight for our freedom. To display hate toward the mans family is bringing yourself down to the mans mentality toward the puppy! A complete disregard for kindness and compassion. This man family didn't do anything except hope (like you and I) that our soldiers come home! I am sure they feel remorse and sadness even deeper then all of us for the actions of a family member! Hate the action! understand the reaction! and look for a solution! Hate is a very strong word!

That was horrible. Being kicked out of the marines is not enough punishment for these losers. These Marines are stooping down to a level that is embarssing to Americans.

Its outrageous the stories we hear of what our "brave" men and women are doing in countries we're supposed to be helping! No wonder the people there despise the US! From what I've seen, seems like they have waaaay too much free time to be abusing animals, people and surf the internet while they're supposed to be working to aid/better a country. WHERE were their superiors while this was going on!! Obviously these children need someone to keep a constant eye on them! Is this what we're paying them for?!!! It gets harder and harder to respect anyone in the military when you hear stories like this one! By the way.....all this outrage....did anyone THINK to go down and BURY the poor puppy?! Doesn't make ya real proud to be an American at times like this! This sick piece of human trash will hopefully get what he deserves (by common ordinary people on the street if not by the marines).

I think it will help grease the skids this bum is on if we get lots of negative comments about him.

Love of animals and not wanting to see people become like those we abhor... I liked both of your initial comments - and I appreciate the info that goes beyond the regular news. I had hoped it was a hoax - the footage seemed like it could have been - I'm glad to know the truth. What to do with that knowledge? I don't know... Maybe I'll go hug my dog :) (feeling saddened at the moment...) (i just wandered by to see if there was any news about the poisoning of strays in Kashmir... so was already feeling "bleakish") um - Lynne and hazel,
