Marine "scandal" debunked

The latest "scandal" is that a marine was videotaped shooting a wounded Iraqi that he believed to be faking dead. Now the left is screaming war crimes. However, another marine was killed by an terrorist faking dead and then shooting the marine. So with these things actually happening, do you think other marines would be likely to play liberal politics with other terrorists?


"Marine Lance Cpl. Jeramy Ailes, 22, of Gilroy was killed Monday in Al-Fallujah by small arms fire. ``They had finished mopping up in Fallujah and they went back to double-check on some insurgents. From what we gathered, somebody playing ossum jumped up and shot him,'' said his father, Joel Ailes, who learned of his death Monday evening. ``It's extremely hard.'' Mercury News

Shame of NBC for lack of discretion. Now this incident will be a newest recruiting tool for Islamofacists (succeeding the Daily Mirror's fake pictures from earlier in the year).

However, where's Bush or Rummy defending the marine, or at least making a statement saying not to rush to judgement? Instead their ambassador is expressing regret. Why doesn't Bush just go apologize again, perhaps this time, to the Syrian "President"? Yahoo News
