This should boost Irey on her challenge to Murtha.

The Dan Rather School of Fake But Accurate Journalism strikes again.

Pretty soon the MSM will drop the whole thing and pretend it never happened, other than the Loonies on DU who will continue to rant about it as if it were real.

Can they now CM that gasbag Murtha, even though he's retired? (CM=Court Martial, for those in Rio Linda)

Better yet, leave the bag alone. Let's just defeat him by voting for Ms. Irey in November. (Sorry I can't fulfill the "rules" by posting a picture of her, perhaps someone else can.)

I never believed a word of it, and whatever happened didn't happen the way they say it happened.

Remember these are the people who strap explosives to themselves and their children and blow themselves up in public places to take out as many innocents as possible,

Remember these are the people who stage secondary explosive attacks to target the aid-workers as they rush in to help the victims of the initial attacks.

Remember that these people hide among civilians, and hospitals, and mosques to stage their attacks, knowing full well that this ties our hands due to the fact that we are good and decent people.

Remember this is the news media that reports only stories that are negative about the American role in Iraq.

Superb.

Assuming this is an ON THE RECORD comment, and those "two defense officials" are eventually named.

In contrast to the unofficial, unnamed (or highly dubious) source crap spewed by the anti-military Left in the past week.

Once these crap accusations started, it's now open-season on any and all claims of abusive behavior. Heck, I'd be willing to bet that there are now lawyers (Iraqi and ours) encouraging some to claim abuse by US troops.

Thanks, Murtha, Durbin, Kerry, Pelosi, and the rest of you liberal 'appeasers'.

Just an FYI- this is a DIFFERENT story than the one about the Marines in Haditha in November.

Furor grows over civilian deaths in Iraq
By KIM GAMEL, Associated Press Writer 1 hour, 9 minutes ago

BAGHDAD, Iraq - A 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 officials.

"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 March on the Iraqi village of Ishaqi north of Baghdad.

The truth never gets in the way of what the Left and their buds in the radical Islamist movement want the world to believe.

Which city? Is this any way related to the infamous so called "massacre"?

It's not. This one happened in March of this year.
