Smith also reports that the story is several months old and that other journalists have reviewed it and cast doubt on the idea that U.S. troops massacred civilians. Imagine that.

"Hardline Sunni group" -- the new BCC euphemism for terrorists!
I wonder what these guys would have called the SS - a "hardline Aryan group?"

Well, all things considered, if forced to choose, I'd take the "insurgents" word over a domestic liberal's any day. At least those guys apparently believe in something.

Additionally the MSM have now given every terrorist in Iraq (who hasn't thought of it already) a new idea: commit massacres and blame it on the US.
The MSM is making it clear they are all too happy to report it that way.

Capt. Kimber, one of the three officers initially accused by Murtha of being relieved of command over Haditha (later we found out this accusation was not true for Capt. Kimber).

Additionally the MSM have now given every terrorist in Iraq (who hasn't thought of it already) a new idea: commit massacres and blame it on the US. It is not a new idea.
Terrorists have been doing this all along, specially in Afghanistan and Iraq. Claiming mass murder by their own forces is the work of Americans is as old as the first gulf war, probably older.
Remember the Iranian airliner full of "pilgrims" which was shot down by the US Vincennes?
It apparently was loaded with bodies, as "passengers". Having our navy Shoot it down was just part of their insane plan.

Funny how that works. But par for the course for Time, the 60 Minutes of print journalism.
