"The shooting happened Saturday, one day after the Marine, who has not been identified, was wounded in the face and after another man in his unit was killed by the booby-trapped body of an insurgent."

I'd have shot the guy too. What's the problem here?

The most likely reason the Iraqi was pretending to be dead - especially if he had been lying there since the previous day and should have by then been more than ready for some help - was that he wanted to entice the Marines to come closer.

And what would be the most likely reason for that?

The problem is embedded enemy propagandists. What's next, embedded Al Queda terrorists?
