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.

Hey nOOb troll, You are an idiot if you think ANYTHING done to the taliban by our men is gonna ramp up or regulate their hate and rage against us westerners, military or civilians. Yeah, like they need reasons. They are muslims! that is what they do, hate, hate, hate. Remember our men strung up on that bridge? Oh I suppose that was okay with you? Get a clue nOOb.
:)
Heck, when you gotta “go”, you gotta GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.....
Anybody who in any way defends this kind of behavior is insane.
Somehow, I seriously doubt that ma’am.
Very easy, people like this dishonor the uniform. I suspect the court martial will see likewise.
You are 100% correct. When we dehumanize our enemies it is easier on our conscience when we kill them. I carried a pic of the WTC when I was in Iraq. Made myself a little angry prior to going on patrol.
MAybe they should have decapatated them after they were killed.The taliban and the other terror groups would have done it while they were alive.
It's only January, but I would like to nominate you for the POST OF THE YEAR AWARD!!!!!
People like this are who I’d want serving beside me.
PC cowards like you are why we’re still fighting these Godless, civilian killing, child raping, women beating, goat humping, low life worthless pieces of dirt.
You are in the wrong place and on the wrong side.
No smoldering hardwood, Hilary Clinton dishonored the Marine’s uniform when she was in the whitehouse. Maybe you were too young.
She treated the WH Marine Guard, responsible for protecting the WH from attack (as opposed to the praetorian secret service who do not do that). She treated them like waiters, in fact asking them to bring her drinks and canapes on trays. They did it, but never forgot.
Just off hand you can take your “concern” and wipe it on the 7 day sh***ers caftan. You get this “leak” from the concerned pvt gaga manning? Wuss.
this practice could be improved by adding some sort of “point system” so scores could be kept.
Boys will be boys, or in your case, girls.
My apologies, Jim, but this newbie p***d me off.
Well, I guess that makes me, and all of the other FReepers on this thread calling out you and your limp wristed post, insane. IBTZ you nOOb troll.
I cannot imagine the outrage at the stuff that went on in the Trojan War. Good thing they did not have cameras back then.
Well, at least they weren’t pissing.
Genghis dealt with these people the most effectively. Emulate him.
no offense...but....http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_does_Don’t_judge_a_man_until_you’ve_walked_two_moons_in_his_moccasins_mean Just saying...
As poster #18 in a thread about Marines who did nothing wrong, you are really, really, really in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Incidentally, the liars at Reuters-Rooter have been caught manufacturing videos and stills several times. The Jew-hating Nazis at Reuters are especially fond of manufacturing stories about how evil Israel is toward bombers, mass murderers and terrorists. If you get a chance to read Reuters Middle-East edition, you’ll think you’ve been transported back to Nazi Germany, and you’re reading Julius Streicher’s hate-sheet called Der Juden.
Say you’re sorry and maybe we’ll let your leftist ass hang around for our amusement another day or two.
