If it is verified that the events occurred as described, then the perpetrators should hang.

Oh, goody! Now the AP and the ACLU can sue for the pictures and plaster them all over the planet as a testament to how evil America is.
What joy.

Now I am sure this rag doesn't have the pictures. So how can they make these statements?

Interesting who gets to be guilty before being proven so.
I wonder how the journalist knows that terrorists did not kill this family.
We can trust the media.
I also wonder what the ethics investigations among Al Qaeda forces are showing?
For that matter, how are the ethics investigations on UN peacekeepers going?
To: MinorityRepublican
the "appalling" reports of the massacre could undermine British support for the war. The AP can only hope. BTW, perfect story for Memorial Day.

Not saying it is true or not, but if it is, it was bound to happen. This is what happens when you use men and machines of war to do things other than what they were trained to do. It saddens me as a warrior from that other war we fought with one hand tied behind the back. While I feel bad for the innocents killed I also feel bad for the Marines who were put in the situation. Not justifying it at all. Just feel old, deep, bad feeling.

If it is verified that the events occurred as described, then the perpetrators should hang.I am not making a statement before the investigation is to take place. I want to wait for all the facts to come out.
However, this is very troubling and if it is true, this is a huge PR coup in the Muslim World.
If this is true, and like you say..............

One photograph shows an Iraqi mother and young child, kneeling on the floor as if in prayer. They have both been shot dead at close range. Odd, a kneeling person if shot would still fall over.
To: KoRn
Even George Washington had to shoot his troops when they weren't behaving properly.
It happens in war, I suppose.

I guess it will not be enough to punish the Marines if they are found guilty ?
Of course the enemy is free to do whatever they want,kill as many as they want, and they are blameless in the eyes of the world?
I pose both things as questions asI do not want to believe this is the way theDemocrats, the world and the media see things

"The stain on the US military could prove harder to erase than the photographs of sadistic abuse and torture by US guards at the Abu Ghraib prison in Baghdad. "
The above was silly. I guarantee you, Nick Berg would have loved to have panties on his head rather than having hsi head lopped off.
"Comparisons are being made to the My Lai massacre in Vietnam in 1968, in which US troops slaughtered 500 villagers. "
This I remember, growing up. I say it was wrong but I also understand how people can lose it.

The pictures of the dead, which are being closely guarded by the US military criminal investigation service, were taken by a military photographer who is believed to have arrived on the scene moments after the shootings. Okay, so we have a crazed bunch of American Marines shooting and rampaging and things suddenly quiet down "moments" later just in time to allow a photographer to capture the scene?
Sure.
I'll wait for a little more info on this one.

Meanwhile, Islamic fanatics who want us all dead are laughing their asses off all over the world. Ain't that special.
