- Go to Are Haditha “Massacre” Allegations Fraudulent?
Interesting to see the lack of liberal, anti-war comments!
Damon, FW, have you nothing to write about this? Or have I beaten you into submission again?

Writer,
this is an excellent post! I followed up on some of the links you provide, and the whole thing gets 'curiouser and curiouser'. I do hope we will get the truth in the end, and I am beginning to suspect that it will look quite different from the 'truth' that has been presented to us by the Washington Post, the Toronto Star, etc., etc....

I would be thrilled
if it turns out that the allegations are fraudulent. That could possibly turn out to be the case, although even pro-administration and pro-war sources seem to be indicating that the investigation isn't fully completed yet, but it doesn't look good.
I think the more important point is that one incident doesn't invalidate the effort in Iraq, and doesn't mean that our military is on the same level as Saddam's, where massacres were standard operating procedure.

I would think this post will go down as one of your classics when
all the "facts" are uncovered. I like the way they left the corpses around to fester for the photo-op at the scene.
