Haditha – why was there no outrage about “massacre” from local Iraqi city leaders?

Marine Captain James Kimber is aptly upset since he has been relieved of his command and has been included in the Haditha "massacre" fallout.  He says he was in another city at the time of the event.

I found one of his comments interesting though.

Kimber said he first learned about the shootings in February when he heard that a Time magazine reporter was asking questions about civilian deaths.

Kimber said he heard nothing about a civilian massacre during city council meetings and talks with local leaders.

"It would have been huge, there would have been no question it would have filtered down to us," he said. "We reported no significant atmospheric change as a result of that day."
