With 8 Marines charged in the murder of 24 Haditha civilians people need to review all of the information which brings up serious questions as to the validity of the charges and testimony.  Please remember these Marines and their families as we all are enjoying our Christmas.  I doubt there is much joy for them knowing that the media is having a field day at their expense.

Euphoric Reality has an extensive roundup of the circumstances, events, testimony over the last year.  Apparently the media has now labeled these Marines as Butchers!   I also suggest you read Heidi’s posts about Taquiyya along with the Arab culture regarding lying. 

Captain’s Journal has a posting on Room Clearing tactics which is what these Marines were doing. 

Blackfive boils this case down to one question.  Do they think they were in danger?

Jason at Counter Column concurs with Captain’s Journal on room clearing.
