Probably another Iraqi weakling. Had a weak neck.

Now this story is starting to make sense.
Having known several Marines, the whole "Evil marines deliberately wacked some innocent slob" didn't jibe.

Not saying it couldn't or doesn't happen, just that most of the Marines I knew were extremely decent folk. Not the sort who get their jollies shooting some poor farmer in the desert.

A hostile captive, the use of force, probably gets a lil over the top, then something get wierd...then someone realizes it got a lil F'd up. this sort of story makes sense to me.

This sort of thing probably happens in war zones.The reason I find it believable, and if not excusable at least understandable is that we are actually hearing about it.
We are one of the few nations that actually looks into these sorts of things....not all the time, but much more than others.
How much press would this get if it were a Russian unit in Chechnya, or Chinese in Tibet, etc etc
