The Conservative Party urges you to sign a Petition to Free the Seals.
These three men are charged with abusing a terrorist they captured in a daring nighttime raid on or about 1 September 2009. On that night, they — as part of a platoon from SEAL Team 10 — captured and detained Ahmed Hashim Abed, one of the most barbaric and dangerous terrorists in Iraq. The terrorist — in a move that is literally right out of the al-Queda training manual — complained of abuse, apparently alleging he was struck in the stomach.

It appears the CPNY decided to appeal to emotion rather than give the actual facts. The charges that matter are that the men lied to investigators which will land you in trouble regardless of what you are accused of. Punching the terrorist in the face would have likely earned them nothing.
