This was the story that was in the Philadelphia Inquirer and then discounted by a more complete investigation. Apparently the shots were not execution style but consistent with shots that would result from being in the crossfire.

The Times of London loves stories of rampaging US soldiers.

“She had been shot with a dumdum bullet,” he claimed.

To my knowledge we don't use dumdum bullets.

Benefit of the doubt needs to be given to these Marines.

In war many accidents happen, and they often are ugly.

A man with a CAR 15 can mistakenly end a dozen lives in a few seconds just by having selected auto fire and thinking that he had switched back to semi auto.

Because it's illegal. So what they are accusing the Marines of is smuggling illegal ammo into theatre so they can shoot civilians. Yeah right.

I guess the defense against these people being killed by terrorists is that their heads are still attached to their bodies.

"Iraqis killed by US troops ‘on rampage’"

How can dead Iraqis be on a rampage?

The only people on a "rampage" here are the American-hating leftists who write this bile.

This is my second attempt to send this, linking is not my strong suit.

This is the Philadelphia Inquirer trying to walk back its front page massacre story from the week before. Too late, the damage has been done.

I would expect that this was committed by insurgents who go ahold of US uniforms.

We do not execute women and children. We do not tie their hands behind their backs and we certainly do not use Dumdum bullets.

This is pure BS.

"I guess the defense against these people being killed by terrorists is that their heads are still attached to their bodies."

Exactly what I was thinking. This crime scene has the hallmarks of a terrorist operation minus the beheading. i suspect it is designed to inflame tensions on the ground and sway US public opinion against the war even more.
