'According to the Associated Press, Reuters and MSNBC News, a US military investiagtion is to show that US marines killed several Iraqi civilians in cold blood in Haditha, Iraq last November:Great now they will paint the entire military with this one brush.
From the beginning, Iraqis in the town of Haditha said U.S. Marines deliberately killed 15 unarmed Iraqi civilians, including seven women and three children.
One young Iraqi girl said the Marines killed six members of her family, including her parents. “The Americans came into the room where my father was praying,” she said, “and shot him.”
On Wednesday, Rep. John Murtha, D-Pa., said the accounts are true.
Military officials told NBC News that the Marine Corps' own evidence appears to show Murtha is right."

madtom,
Well, lets see how the investigation (still ongoing) pans out. The MSNBC report cites unnamed sources. The Marines are certainly not backing the story as they shouldn't.
Murtha however is a jackass. He IS painting all the troops with one brush based on this incident, before the Marines in question have even been indicted.
