Ex-Marine guilty of firing at Pentagon

Normally, I would say "There's no such thing as an Ex-Marine" but I'll make an exception for this Muslim dirtbag. [:(!]

An ex-Marine from Virginia has pleaded guilty to charges that he fired shots at the Pentagon, the Marine Corps museum in Quantico and other military-related targets.

A plea-agreement hearing was held Thursday for 24-year-old Yonathan Melaku (meh-LAH-koo) of Alexandria. He agreed to a 25-year sentence in the case.

Prosecutors charged Melaku last year, saying they had evidence linking him to a series of overnight shootings in 2010 at a number of military buildings in northern Virginia. No one was injured.

Melaku was arrested in June when he was spotted after dark in Arlington National Cemetery with a backpack containing potential explosives material and notations referring to jihad and Osama bin Laden. He apparently intended to spray paint tombstones with Arabic graffiti.

    Actually I believe it was established and confirmed by McVeigh that he was an atheist or agnostic. Several sites say he was raised a Catholic, but was a professed agnostic.

    Thankfully, a dead atheist. As he burns in hell, maybe he'll realize the errors of his ways. [}:)]

    Add these two to the murdering scumbags of the Nation of Islam back when riots and the million man march was on people's minds like Malcolm X, and such to include, the black panthers, and the scumbags involed in the NAM fraggings, and the non-religious get their fair share of infamy as well.

    I thought the Corp has always made it clear that there is only ONE "EX-Marine", and his name is Lee Harvey Oswald.

    He may have declared he was an Atheist, but nonetheless, he was a White american citizen, ex military, Nut Case.. Would he have been denied service because he didnt have a religious preference.. That was my point.. On my dog tags it said under the Religion stamp,, No preference..Atheist, christian, muslim,, those that do what they do are still NUTS ......

    with all these muslims shooting at our military personnel & equipment, you'd have to be pushing the boundaries of stupidity to to try to claim Islam has nothing to do with it.

    Any dishonorably discharged Marine or a former Marine who disgraces the Corps in a despicable, dishonorable, felonious and unforgivable manner is forever branded as an "Ex-Marine".

    Charles Whitman, the "Texas Tower Sniper" who killed 16 innocent civilians at the University of Texas at Arlington in 1966, also wore that well-deserved brand.

    But if you are a currently active duty Marine, you can do no wrong and all actions are condoned. [:D]

    I also include John Murtha in the company of ex-Marines.
