"I don't think there would have been an investigation if I hadn't said something. You have to make it public."

5-17-06: al-Murthawi accuses our Marines of "killing innocent civilians in cold blood."

____________________________________________________________________________

5-19-06 The Situation Room with Wolf Blitzer aired:

BLITZER: He was responding in part to you, because you've suggested this week that there in effect was a massacre.

MURTHA: Well there was. There's no question about it. I know, in talking to a number of people, and the information,.....When this thing's all over, you're going to see exactly what I've said to be true.

BLITZER: The marines say they're still investigating. They don't know what happened yet. The pentagon says the same thing. How do you know what happened?

MURTHA: Wolf, you read the "Time" magazine articles. There are pictures, there are photos. You don't have to talk to the military about the proof.

In January, after Time presented military officials in Baghdad with the Iraqis' accounts of the Marines' actions, the U.S. opened its own investigation, .....

The military announced last week that the matter has been handed over to the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (ncis), which will conduct a criminal investigation

Because the incident is officially under investigation, members of the Marine unit that was in Haditha on Nov. 19 are not allowed to speak with reporters.

Excellent post and excellent work Justa.

Murtha doesn't need proof, he only needs "Time" magazine to slander Marines that put their lives on the line to defend our freedoms and our judicial system which by the way is the finest in the world.

The slandering and his presumption of guilt of our Marines by the despicable Congressman Murtha is unforgivable.

Really? Murtha says his source for these slanderous comments against the military was a Time magazine article? That's just nuts.
