Finally, a defense of our marine by a Brit hero is published.

SAS ace defends trooper
By MARTIN PHILLIPS

A WOUNDED US soldier seen on TV shooting dead an Iraqi prisoner was defended last night by SAS hero Andy McNab.
The US marine — shot in the cheek earlier — machine-gunned the man in the head as he lay bleeding in a mosque in Fallujah.
The soldier feared the Iraqi was pretending to be dead to draw him into a trap.
Just before the killing, a fellow GI yells: “He’s f***ing faking he’s dead!”
The marine faces a murder probe.
But McNab — who has stared death in the face — said: “It’s easy for people sitting comfortably in their armchairs in front of the TV to take the moral high ground.
"They are not there in Fallujah, in that killing environment.
“We don’t know what is going through that marine’s head. The Iraqi could have been hiding a weapon or explosives.
“Troops are fighting an enemy that doesn’t stick to any rules.
“The insurgents use mosques to launch attacks. They come out under cover of a white flag, then attack the Americans. They plant booby-trap bombs on dead bodies.
“Every soldier has a right to defend himself, and if that is a grey area — then so be it.”

Glad to see this but people must stop referring to this scum as insurgents or victims. They are terrorists. Murdering, savage terrorists. Link to the article with photos
