I don't know why anyone responds to any of your posts on the issue.
You have bought every story from the start, a simple query on your post history can reveal the dozens of comments defending the various haditha stories over the past week.
Not that its anything nefarious or anything wrong with that, but it seems highly unproductive to engage you at all on this topic which you are, and have been, so committed in your POV since the start.
Sorry, it's the cop reflex. When the witness gets caught changing his story, he graduates to "suspect." And the word at Camp Pendleton is that this whole question arose because the after-action report had some serious discrepancies with other reports.
This has been under investigation for three months. Generally, investigations are either very short--a matter of days (nothing to see here, move along) or very long (which means someone's in a ton of trouble).
There are enough lawyers (prosecution and defense) showing up on the base to start a national government. (The Republic of Pendletonia?)
The final straw for me? When the defense attorney (an anti-war activist, BTW) said that HIS clients weren't the target of the probe. When that happens, it's even money that the client's getting indicted.
