About a week and a half ago we launched www.savethenavyseals.com to help collect signatures in support of the three Navy SEALs who captured Ahmed Hashim Abed. Abed is the mastermind behind the brutal mutilation and murder of four American civilians in Fallujah in 2004 who now claims he got a bloody lip (or was punched in the stomach) while being detained by the SEALs. As a reward for their efforts, the SEAL's are now being court martialed.
We've now collected over 10,000 signatures and want to get 5,000 more! Will you help us by emailing your friends and family and asking them to sign on?
Dan appeared on Fox News to help promote the effort:

To charge these Seals is the real crime.

The very thought that these soldiers might be punished is a slap in the face to all Americans,and will surely cause further distrust between "We the people" and the political factions that run this country.

As a twenty year vet of our armed forces, I am disgusted that those in charge would even consider disiplinary action of these proud Navy Seals. Who is to say that his creep did not cause his so called injury so that he could continue to cause havoc even while incarcerated.

On behalf of my Navy Seal warriors I pray from Psalm 25, "To you, O Lord, I lift up my soul; in you I trust, O my God. Do not let me (us)be put to shame,nor let my enemies triumph over me. No one whose hope is in You will be put to shame, but they will be put to shame who are treacherous without excuse"..... "Redeem Israel,O God from all their troubles !"

In a case like this, we should not go after the little guy, but maybe we should Fire the top Person in charge. This is the one person who is draging us Americans down
Posted by: Dave | December 23, 2009 at 01:53 PM
What these people don't understand is that these people who can murder another person are liars,and are just like their father the Devil. So should we beleive what they say, I say NO!

We have a corupt government when they want to punish the men and women protecting our freedom. Our Navy Seals are the best and I fully support them, they are doing their job well. God Bless them and God Bless America.

As an American Veteran this kind of bull makes me mad. Our military is the greatest military in the entire world. We are asked everyday to take on tasks that most people will or would never do. All for Love of God and Country. Then some cowardly terrorist cries out and our politicians fall to there knees leavin...g... our great heroes standing alone for doing what was asked of them. Terrorists have no rights in this country PERIOD. This is my country -and I once signed up to protect our rights to God and Country and I will not let my fellow servicemen/women stand alone against the likes of those that sit in Washington DC with their nice plush salaries and tell me that terrorists killing my friends and comrades have rights. Please sign the below petition to stand behind our Navy Seals. These guys are heroes. NOTHING LESS!

That terrorist is lucky I didn't get him, cause he'd a have a lot more than a fat lip.

I am appalled & disgusted that this country can court martial our brave navy seals for doing their jobs, they should be awarded medals as far as I'm concerned. Where did we go wrong in this country that we allow & believe a wanted terrorits criminals lies against our brave seals fighting for OUR Country. This cannot be allowed to happen. I think the brass should be brought up on court martial for being stupid.

This is a travesty. What"s next ... trying these terrorists in New York City?

God bless you for bringing a measure sanity to the prosecution of our Navy Seal HEROES. I’m 66 years old and still can’t imagine how our great nation has sunk to such depths but it’s evident that political correctness his mistakenly gained a higher priority in our country than the service, sacrifice and honor of those who risk their lives to preserve our freedom. The three Seals are genuine American heroes and clearly deserving of our praise and gratitude. The MG supporting their prosecution should be forced to resign in disgrace or relived of his command and rank.
