http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malmedy_massacre

You hear RWers say - what's a little water up the nose (waterboarding) when they're lopping off peoples' heads -

Well, using that logic, why didn't the Allies waterboard German POW's? After all, many more GI's were killed at Malmedy than have ever been killed by some insurgent type by getting his head lopped off in Iraq....

2. Bill O'Reilly is the one who started that slander. And he did it twice.

Once after he'd already been corrected for it.

Because Bill O'Reilly hates American and hates The Troops and hates World War II Veterans.

3. Actually, for several weeks after the news of the
Malmady massacre took place, the number of German Prisoners taken by Americans dropped of drastically. Word came down through back door channels to knock the BS off and start taking prioners again. We were killing Germans trying to surrender. We killed Japanese soldiers that had surrendered. soldiers and sailors in the water. Your point is?
