Blogger Unmasks Fake "Special Forces Ranger" Anti-War Professed War Criminal
2006-05-24
Continues yesterday's mockery and derision...
Jesse Adam MacBeth Was Born Jesse Adam Al-Zaid.

"I was in the Third Ranger Battalion. Our job was to strike fear in the hearts of the Iraqi people.

We would go into peopleÂ’s houses and plow down entire families. We would interrogate people. If we didnÂ’t like the answers that they gave, then we would kill the youngest child. If they gave more answers that we didnÂ’t like, then weÂ’d move on to the rest of the family. They couldÂ’ve been innocent people.

We would leave the bodies in the streets and blame it on the ShiÂ’ites or the Sunnis. [In Fallujah] we were ordered to go into mosques and slaughter people while they were praying. I wonÂ’t go into full detail because IÂ’m still haunted by the memories."

What was the assault on Fallujah like?

"Fallujah is where we slaughtered people in mosques. We provoked the people there. Some people escaped from the mosques and saw us. We would dig holes and leave mass graves of children, women, and old men. We were ordered to let people die on the street. We were told that the Geneva Convention means nothing to us in combat..."

(much, much more at link)
Some of the problems with Jesse's pic and story, plucked from the DU itself! You gotta love it when they eat their own.

Claim: Attended Ranger School. Truth: would be awarded the Ranger tab, worn on the left shoulder above the 3/75 scroll.

Claim: Attended Special Forces Qualification Course. Truth: Would be awarded the Special Forces tab, worn on the left shoulder above the 3/75 scroll. SFQC from start to end takes about 1.5 years to complete, without any breaks. In a 11-03-2003 interview with the Eastern Arizona Courier he claims to have been home 2.5 months, making it 08-20-2003. He claims to have spent 14 months in Iraq and Afghanistan, making it 06-20-2002 when he departed for overseas. Special Forces is a total of 18 months making it 01-20-2001. Infantry combat training (boot camp) is 13 weeks, Jump school is 3 weeks, and Ranger school is 8 weeks (total of 24 weeks) making it 07-20-2000. A total of 3 years and 4 months of training and combat. If he was 19 years old in the interview then he was 15 or 16 when he enlisted. Minimum age of enlistment is 17 with parental consent. He also claims to have joined when he was 17, so the training and combat timelines do not work out. And this is if the system worked perfectly and the day he finished one school he started another, which is impossible because these schools are not collocated.

Claim: Fought with 3/75 in Afghanistan and Iraq. Truth: Would be wearing former wartime service 3/75 scroll on right shoulder.

Claim: Wearing Special Forces shoulder sleeve insignia on right shoulder, with Special Forces Qualification tab. Truth: No claims of being assigned to any Special Forces Group. The Special Forces Qualification tab is not worn on the right shoulder as a part of the former wartime service insignia.

Claim: United States Army Soldier. Truth: Rolls his uniform sleeves inside out not authorized in the Army.

Claim: Combat Infantryman Badge 2nd award. Truth: CIBs are issued during qualifying eras. The two most recent eras are Persian Gulf War, 17 January 1991 to 11 April 1991 and Somalia, 5 June 1992 to 31 March 1994. He would have been 9 years old to qualify for a second award.

Claim: Combat Action Badge 2nd award. Truth: IF he was an infantryman, he would not qualify for 1 CAB, he would have had to change his MOS prior to the incident awarding the CAB. There has not been a second qualifying era to award a second CAB, so it is impossible for him to have a second award.

Claim: Ranger. Truth: His beret is the correct color, but he is wearing the flash for the 1st Special Forces Group (wrong) and no distinctive unit insignia (wrong), which is required.

Claim: Operation Iraqi Freedom/ Battle of Fallujah. Truth: The Battle of Fallujah (Operation Phantom Fury) began on 11-08-2004. As we read about our intrepid “Soldier” was at home protesting coffee prices. Operation Vigilant Justice began on 04-05-2004 and did not include elements of 3/75.

#48  I so tired of blatently obvious pseuds like Jessie/Jesse MacDuff-whatever, I am kicking around the notion of doing a one-stop-shop blog entry on detecting the faux-veteran, and what you can do to check him/her/it out, and expose him/her/it to a couple of weeks or decades of exposure, mockery and humiliation. I am totally serious about this, I have a daughter (not Desert Blondie, BTW--- just Cpl/Sgt Blondie) who has already been asked impertinant questions while in uniform in a fast-food place in San Diego, about killing babies. Up with this, I will not put. Suggestions about what to look for, and where to contact to check out possible pseuds are invited, here or wherever.

There are a lot of losers out there like this guy. But just look at this mutt. I was never pretty (my mother loved me though, I'm told) but these losers really look the part. And to think they thought they were dressing for the part. God help us.

#30  Speak for yourself OS; I was a Sniper/SpecOps/Marine/SEAL/Fighter Jock/Tank Commander. I served with the 101, 102, 103 Airborne Super Secret A-Team. I personally lead the attack force that captured the high ground and saved the day, all the while caring for my fallen comrades, and calling in air strikes to decimate the enemy. I was awarded the Silver Star with special 'BS' device, A Bronze Star with for battle stars, a CIB while serving in the Air Force, and most treasured procession is the floppy hat that some CIA pussy gave me after I saved his ass in a Da Nang whore house. The preceding message is a good example of what you will hear from a "War Hero" or after a few stiff drinks at the VFW.

#28  "Either way, nobody who does super-secret stuff talks about it, ever. "

Well some do, but only to reporters it seems. /snark

The rest of us will tell you some "war stories", gloss over some parts with "then we did some stuff we can't say" (or more likely, not even mention those parts at all), and move right on. Usually the stories at the VFW and Legion Hall get bigger with more alcohol, and invariable start with "This is no shit, there we were...". LOL

Most of the time, we just say we did our duty overseas, drop an UNclassified person or place name (that others would know), and others who are in the know can mentally fill in the blanks from there - no need to talk about it because if you've been there done that, you will get the context. Plus there's stuff that I don't know, and to be honest, I dont want to know - I don't want the responsibility for keeping anything more in my noggin than whats already there, stuff I did is enough to watch out for, much less some stuff some other ops did.

Beyond that, NOBODY ever speaks specifics. You hear that, its a dead giveaway that someone is lying to you unless you know them personally and are in a cleared area.

"I wonÂ’t go into full detail because IÂ’m still haunted by the memories."

Dead giveaway. Soldiers move on. Thats why we have chaplains. Killing is not a normal thing, but all your training prepares you for it. And once you get over the shock of dealing death to an enemy, you go one of two ways - either you go buggy (and a few do - these days with an all volunteer force, probably the nubmers are mega-low), or you adjust and keep going. Just like all sodliers have done from the Spartans where you came home with your shield or on it.

If you were to talk to me in person, you'd find my stuff pretty boring - I am no super solider, jsut a guy doing the job I was trained to do, for the country I love, and also because I enjoyed the hell out of it. But the stories I can tell are funny at times, because I do have some funny stuff to tell when people messed up. Like a combat egress from the upper part of a barn that landed our platoon leader in 3 feet of liquified pig manure (he managed to somehow hit dead center in the sump in a pig sty, instead of hitting all the muddy but non-liguid area nearby). And what makes it better is that we had a 5K road march back to the AA in stinking soggy fatigues and boots: crap was soaked into his trousers, socks and boots, and half way up his chest, all over and in his ruck and butt pack, in his hair and on his arms from the inital splash. Even after hosing him off, we had to make sure we stayed upwind from him if we didnt want to gag. Had wind coming over our shoulders for most of the march, so that was the first and only time I've ever seen a West Point ring-knocker pulling point-man duty. He was noisy as hell, but thats OK - they'd have smelled him long efore they heard him.

Patrick S Lasswell is a Navy veteran of Operations Southern Watch and Uphold Democracy. He once sailed by Operation Restore Hope and went to the location of Operation Just Cause only seven months after it was over. He very nearly got to go move cargo for Operation Desert Storm and might someday get mobilized for Operation Iraqi FreedomÂ…or not. http://pslasswell.blogspot.com

For those of us Rantburgers who never did the military thing (and there are about as many of us as of you-all, just because of between-wars X-generation), your comment is valuable, Cyber Sarge. Thank you. May I suggest you copy the whole thing and paste it over at IndyMedia or Kos -- some of the smarter ones will absorb the lesson, and it'll speed up the cycle the next couple of times. (As for me, I wouldn't go over there even just to look -- my skin is too delicate for the scrubbing required afterward.)

#23  Let me first apologize for the bandwidth I am about to take up, but I think the LLL needs this information:
How to Avoid Getting Caught as a Fake Veteran
Recently a man named Jessie MacBeth was caught lying about his military service in a video where he described various atrocities committed in Iraq. Within one day, every aspect of his claims and public life were examined and found severely wanting. His attempt to discredit the war did a great deal of harm to the credibility of anti-war organizations that embraced his claims. If you want to avoid a similar fate, there are several basic steps you can take to avoid discovery.
1. Do Not Lie About Your Military Service. This step is so basic that many people forget it altogether. The easiest way to avoid discovery of your lies is not to lie. The truth is a much easier story to keep straight than lies and it often has a useful paper trail that you can point to when confronted.
2. Do Your Research. If you must lie about your military service, it will take a lot longer for you to be caught if you take some time and make sure the story holds together. Regrettably, the more detailed and factual your story is, the more likely it is that the people who were there will be contacted and out you for the fink you are. When discovered, you should be ready to disappear, even if you are in Congress. The easiest way to do your research accurately is to spend several years in military serviceÂ…okay, maybe not the easiest, but certainly the best.
3. Do Not Say Your Unit Activities Were Classified. Especially if you are claiming a war that is more than ten years old, nothing is worse than the old line "I can't tell you, it's a secret." Real veterans grit their teeth the instant that line is told and start their search engines. A certain Republican Congressman from Oregon discovered the hard way how badly this line is received. If you were involved in a special-ops black bag program, you're probably either dead or making six figures still doing it. Either way, nobody who does super-secret stuff talks about it, ever.
4. Do Not Play Dress Up. There are these things called "uniform inspections" that everybody in the military goes through, a lot. In them, the slightest imperfection in uniform appearance is noted and commented upon. This is called "attention to detail" and the military is really big on it. They act like their lives depend on attention to detail, mostly because their lives depend on attention to detail. Showing up in costume may make you feel important, but it makes you look like a fool to real veterans who can spot an imposter from a mile away. Once again, the best way to avoid this faux pas is to spend some quality time in the military, learning by doing.
5. Do Not Slander The US Military. If you are going to lie about the military, do not give veterans, their friends, families, loved ones, and survivors a burning desire to discredit you. Military people have been known to carry grudges for decades after being slandered and libeled. They get really touchy about getting called "baby-killer", "rapist", "murderer", "mercenary", "traitor", and "coward". Actually, they get more than touchy; they become enraged by this kind of thing, especially because it is almost always a lie. Lying like this will tend to get you caught and publicly exposed at Internet speed these days. Veterans and their families will drop everything to shut this kind of slander down. Not just because this is hurtful, but because it saps the morale of those who need it most.
Some people, including many who have actual military service, just can't help lying about their serviceÂ…or at least improving on the truth to make things more interesting. Jessie MacBeth is only the latest to be caught lying about his service to gain attention, he won't be the last. Everybody has access to an Internet search engine if they don't have access to a real veteran, and fake veteran stories just don't hold up they way they used to. If you want a veteran who is opposed to the war speaking at your rally or for your organization, you owe it to your cause to make sure that they are authentic and actually speaking truth when speaking to power.

Ok only the last two items are actually true, but does that mean anything to the left? By the end of the week we will hear from a team of shrinks that IF young Jesse ACTUALLY joined the military he would have done everything that he claims he did, so that kind of makes it true. FYI I hear he is joining Veterans for Kerry 2008.

#15  Fraud - just straight generic fraud charges. Set up a baseline prosecution - all these lies vs. 1st amendment rights to free speech and free press. A whole lotta lying is covered under those protections (James Frey, the NYT, network television), so you need to throw in a very specific and very small crime (find something about improper uniform) and then load up on the fraud evidence.

If nothing else, how about something under the military code, so federal courts are avoided altogether? That's where the uniform abuse would start.
Posted by: Ebbogum Sheresh6836   2006-05-24 09:31  

#14  Here is a telling quote from this turd.

“When I was growing up, everyone thought I’d be a criminal, but they were wrong. I’m gonna be one of the leaders of the revolution.”

I’ve read some opinions about this guy dismissing him simply as “so committed to his cause that he fabricated his credentials”. This is not like lying on your resume. It is more akin to intentionally torching a house so you can rush in and pretend to save the occupants. His mental instabilities do not warrant any sympathies and his actions demand only contempt.
Posted by: DepotGuy   2006-05-24 09:30  

#13  I'm maybe naïve, but doesn't imperonnating a military man, claiming false ranks and so on constitute a felony?

Beside the sheer sleaziness of all that mess, I mean check this guy's bio, there is a distinct and persistent attempt at slandering the US Army and aiding the ennemy IN A TIME OF WAR.

The military brass should really, really ask for legal actions against this pos, perhaps this would dissuade the next bunch.

#4  more beret-bashing comes in a quote from Army spokesman John Boyce via LGF:

“...There are also numerous wear and appearance issues with the Soldier’s uniform — a mix of foreign uniforms with the sleeves rolled up like a Marine and a badly floppy tan beret worn like a pastry chef."

#3  amend above to "I heard in an email..." about the beret - havent seen ti for myself. But if he did have the Beret on wrong, then its funny as hell, because thats one of the first thing any one does when they get thier first REAL beret (Airborne Maroon in my case) is to learn how to get jus thte right drop, angle and "mash" on it to make it look good.
Posted by: Oldspook   2006-05-24 00:45  

#2  He's wearing his beret mashed on the wrong side - and in the wrong way too. Thats the most obvious thing of all, even plain leg REMFs can get that one right.

No way that skinny little ratbag would have made it thru RIP, much less the 18 branch Q course.

I invite him to come visit 3/75 Rangers and give a little talk on "war crimes" comitted by the Rangers. I'm sure they will find the time to even take him up and renew his jump wings. I'm sure he remembers his training and how to check his main. mwahahah!
