"The deliberate shooting of unarmed and wounded fighters who pose no immediate threat is a war crime under international law and there is therefore an obligation on the US authorities to investigate all such reports and to hold perpetrators of such crimes accountable before the law," said Amnesty. "

Of course, the US IS investigating.

But no comment as to the reporter, Sites, who was there and did nothing to stop a "war crime." HE knew that there were likely to be wounded there, apparently the Marines did not.

Don't lets let HIM off the hook. He was recording a supposed "war crime" on video - when, if he thought it was one, he should have taken action to stop it.

Good point that! Strangely in the audio you don't hear the lone voice shouting:"please don't do it, he's a wounded terrorist????" Sites was just waiting to get that type of footage and make some money with it. On another post it says that last year he was taken hostage in Iraq,and then miraculously released......Very strange
