The video, which was posted on YouTube and other websites, shows four men in camouflage Marine combat uniforms urinating on the bodies of three dead Taliban.
One of them jokes: "Have a nice day, buddy." Another makes a lewd joke about a shower.
A copy of the video can be seen here
"While we have not yet verified the origin or authenticity of this video, the actions portrayed are not consistent with our core values and are not indicative of the character of the Marines in our Corps," the Marines said in a statement.
"This matter will be fully investigated."
Two U.S. military officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the video appeared to be authentic at first look but Reuters could not independently verify the video or its source.

GET OUT SOME BACON GUYS!
Before anyone starts wailing about this, let’s not forget that these are the Taliban we’re talking about, here. They don’t care a whit how they’d behave, if the situation were reversed. Their atrocities are far, far worse.
The Koranimals are bipedal automatons, and do not deserve to be dignified by being considered human.
What a waste of pi$$!
Love all the sappy handwringing on the site. “Oh, this is so shameful!” “How can the Marine’s investigate themselves?”
Seriously?
We are at war.
These are US Marines peeing on dead Taliban.
This is a good thing.
Very good point.
Let’s rename the Marines “Occupy Taliban”... then they can poop on them too.
I doubt it. Most Taliban don't have time for youtube. Cutting off girl's noses and executing adulterers doesn't leave time for much else.
Coincidentally, both Reuters and Islam aren’t worth pissing on....
I agree with him.
However our Freedom is protected by hard men that do an unpleasant job.
In the course of that job our troops encounter people that do much worse things to our soldiers. The fellow soldiers of these men may have be maimed or killed in cowardly ways by the friends of these dead Taliban.
We who are not in the line of fire must remember that is not possible to see your friends maimed and killed and not feel anger and hatred to those doing these things.
When Sherman said war is hell it was not a joke. These men have been to hell. Do not judge them until you have walked in their shoes.
Aww lookie there, somebody threw away 3 perfectly good talibans.
Those disgusting little scum supported the death of 3000 Americans, shot at our troops and somehow this is going to get more of our troops killed. Give me a break. If I was in charge there wouldn’t even be a Afghanistan person alive to kill one more American. To many people loss sight of the fact that they want our brother sisters son and daughters dead.
Congradulations. you said the secret word "72 virgins" and you win $200 and deal with this..>>>
Piss on their faces and tell them that it’s raining.
I think the whiners need a special "right to bitch" one week training course after which they're dropped of in the middle of bad guy country with whatever ammo they can carry, fifteen year old rations, a compass, and part of the map they need. Tell them that if they find their way back to friendlies that are, "just sixty miles over yonder", and they're still upset about the corpses of the people who tried to kill them their complaint forms will be stuck at the bottom of the pile of paper the VA routinely takes a decade to process.
JMHO
Lets rename the Marines Occupy Taliban... then they can poop on them too.

Triumph, the insult comic dog, agrees.
“I like Taliban...FOR ME TO POOP ON!!!”
Note for future reference: From now on we should p!ss on them while they’re alive. Then kill’em.
Some folks here disagree with you.
General Pershing was never censured.
And I don't think the Marines should be, either.
I encourage everyone to look at your posting history.

Promote those men... see if any of them want to run for congress
BINGO !!!!!
I’m trying to care about this. I just can’t manage it.
