Bush Wars Title: TLBSHOW - the gift is to see the truth before the truth is seen - U.S. troops have deliberately killed civilians is fueling a furor in Iraq and drawing strong condemnations from government and human rights official third set of allegations that U.S. troops have deliberately killed civilians is fueling a furor in Iraq and drawing strong condemnations from government and human rights official. "It looks like the killing of Iraqi civilians is becoming a daily phenomenon," the chairman of the Iraqi Human Rights Association, Muayed al-Anbaki, said Friday after video ran on television of children and adults slain in a raid in Ishaqi in March.
Al-Anbaki's comments came a day after Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki upbraided the U.S. military over allegations that Marines killed two dozen unarmed civilians in Haditha, calling it "a horrible crime." They were his strongest public comments on the subject since his government was sworn in last month. U.S. commanders have ordered new ethics training for all troops in Iraq. But the flow of revelations and investigations threatens to undermine Iraq's new government and public support in America for President Bush's management of the war. Iraq's government also began its own investigation of the deaths in Haditha. Poster Comment: To: Jhoffa_ (#12) What's the fucking problem here, exactly? if it did happen then the war is set back 100 times one hundred which is why the powers that be are all over that thread... TLBSHOW posted on 2006-05-29 22:07:27 ET To: TLBSHOW (#13) "...if it did happen then the war is set back 100 times one hundred" That's pure, unadulterated nonsense...if some Marines freaked out and killed innocent Iraqis, they will be court-martialed and severely punished. If someone higher on up the chain of command helped cover this up or facilitated the event occurring, they will also be dealt with harshly as well. But this is NOT U.S. policy and is totally out of character for our Marines...we must let justice take its course...MUD Right Since Birth!!

That's true, Todd...this unfortunate event is only news becuz of how rare this sort of thing is...in WWII, it was Allied Forces' WarPlan to kill as many German and Japanese citizens (men, women, and children) as technologically- possible.
These days, we are attempting to win over the hearts and minds of those we are liberating and killing innocent life queers our quest...MUD Right Since Birth!! #2. To: TLBSHOW (#0) Iraq's government also began its own investigation of the deaths in Haditha. I think this is the best news coming out of this Haditha massacre. Everything else I've read didn't have any positive outcome.
