Why do you say that? Sounds like the opposite to me.

The big question is: How did there happen to be a camera man on location to film the terrible event? The lead vehicle was blown up before our eyes! Then the camera went to blood stains in the close-by houses, with acusatory narrative accompanied.
I'm sorry, but I don't blame the Marines, if they did do this. They didn't deploy to wipe noses, they deployed to fight a war, and the enemy hides behind the faces of women, children and old people as well as hooded insurgents. Much as the traitorous press argues otherwise war is war, and sometimes bad things happen in war. The press, and Congress, are so quick to judge! But, again, how come the scene happened to be filmed?

The Mariens? Isn't that an order of Catholic nuns?

If you meant Marines, then yes, the AP is playing up the typical MSM BS that shows them in the worse possible light.

The terrorists don't wear uniforms..let's go further and say they were hiding in a house filled with purely innocent women and children, and the were firing on the Marines. What are the Marines supposed to do?..Stay there and NOT return fire, and get killed? It's the "fog of war"..it's tragic..and in every conflict...innocents will always get killed..
