Josh Stieber was not on the mission over Baghdad that day. By then he had already begun questioning the actions he was being asked to carry out in Iraq; he had refused an order from his commanding officers a few days earlier -- "a command that I didn't feel right in following," as he told Glenn Greenwald on Friday -- and he was kept behind. Otherwise, he said, "I would have been in that video."RTWT at the link.
AlterNet's Liliana Segura spoke with Stieber over the phone on Sunday night about his reaction to the video, the response from the Pentagon, and why the Iraq Veterans Against the War member has devoted himself to speaking out.
And recall who you're identifying with by donning a keffiyeh:

They're all over the place, Rick ...
These attractive girls that don the keffiyeh while wearing American tight tops as you see them here, would dragged from some streets in Iraq or Iran, and any street in Afghanistan; In the Sinai they would be stoned, raped or murdered or all of the above were they to wear those attractive tight fitting tops they can wear in freely America. I find the ignorance of the leftist university women in this country stunning.
Rusty,
You forget that attractiveness does not cover ugliness of the soul and lack of knowledge of the real conditions women face in Islamic societies. They haven't the intelligence to recognize that having to cover their face is a form of slavery.
I was just going to say what Rusty said.
These stupid young girls must not understand that they would be beheaded or stoned in any islamic society.
The ignorance is stunning.
nice tits - shame about the ideology
Tits or GTFO...
