  • I would say it was the only one that got any media airtime.I am sure there was many more that we are unaware of.
  • Well, two years after it happened, the prosecution's case has pretty much fallen apart. As of this date (9 July 2008) seven of the eight accused Marines have been cleared of charges and the last defendant will probably be clear soon as well. What we have here is an example of what happens when a biased press doesn't present the full story. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080617/us_nm/usa_iraq_haditha_dc http://www.military.com/NewsContent/0,13319,151677,00.html?ESRC=eb.nl What I would like to know is when are those that accused these men of war crimes (Jack Murtha for example) are going to apologize for their libelous statements.
  • Most of the Marines have been cleared of all charges. The Marines are now suing Rep. Murtha for libel and ruining their careers. These guys have been ruined and they acted within the rules of war. I know a guy in that company of Marines. The chain of command knew EXACTLY what was happening when it was happening.
