The video tape obtained by the BBC shows a number of dead adults and children at the site with what our world affairs editor John Simpson says were clearly gunshot wounds.

What caliber/cartridge was used to inflict the woulds?

Were they inflicted before or after death?

Look, that doesn't matter. John Simpson, who has had a long career finding ways to undermine America, says who did it.

Why let details get in the way.

Why do we let this organisation in the country ?

Zimbabwe has banned them, and i haven't seen any BS about that country for a while.

Its time for leadership Mr President. Take a stand.

These are the things I want to know both here and in Haditha. Are we able to do the basic ballistic/forensic work that would be standard here stateside, or are we going on rumor and chatter from the 'street?' Frankly, I would like to see hard evidence, not testimony or conjecture.

Let me preface this by saying I know just as much about the merits of this case as the MSM and Murtha...which is to say I know NOTHING. We'll know when the investigation is complete.

It wouldn't be a great stretch to imagine that the local jihadis have captured M-4's or M-16's with which to fire 5.56mm ammo.

I wonder if a postmortem was even performed on the shootees due to the muslim insistance on planting the body in the ground asap.

This whole damn thing is smelling fishy -even moreso now that it's come up that the muz reporter that "broke" the story has a history of being detained by the US military.
