  • Tape showing US soldiers killing an unarmed and wounded Iraqi

    I haven't been to these forums in a bit, so I don't know if it's already been posted.

    Today on the news here we were shown footage of US soldiers in Fallujah. The entered some building filled with dead and wounded Iraqi's. One of the Iraqi wounded got shot by one of the American GIs (we weren't shown who it was who pulled the trigger).

    It was quite shocking to say the least... does anyone know any more about this?

        shooting unarmed prisoners...

        surely this is the way to achieve democracy as well as win the hearts and minds of the iraqi people!
        To us, it is the BEAST.

          Do you have any link? It doesn't seem to be a top story on www.cnn

              The cnn commentator expressed fears that this may encourage insurgents to fight to the death, instead of surrendering.

                I can't find it on CNN either. Or are they just slow at updating their site?

                    Seems CNN.com has been hacked. They now feature a brief between page when you open cnn.com in a new window.

                      Of course, in the face of such a brutal enemy what else can they do?

                        Isn't killing an unarmed and wounded soldier generally recognized as a war crime? Isn't capturing the act on tape generally considered irrefutable evidence of said war crime?

                          Sure it is. There are always those who flip out.

                            And yet this somehow makes it right? I don't know what your definition of murder is, but it isn't mine...

                              Did you still think that all US soldiers are saints?
