May I add, one that does not seem to have made the press much previously, not until the Marines were found innocent.
There was some BBC coverage on it IIRC.

"Let me break this down for you, fresh from algebra II. A 95% chance to win 5 times means a (95*5) chance to win = 475% chance to win." Wiglaf, Court jester or hayseed, you judge.
So wait... they killed 13 people trying to get "a suspected Al-Qaeda terrorist"? 13:1, that's not a very good ratio, is it?
But regardless, this isn't about Haditha. Obviously not every Iraqi civilian death is the fault of the Americans, the disturbing bit are the ones that are ANDcould have been prevented (The ones that rush checkpoints in their cars are really asking for it given the nature of insurgent tactics).

This has to be the third dumbass in this thread which has confused two different events. Personally, I rate tecu-what ever worse then the other two since since this error has already been pointed out several times yet techu still did the exact same thing.

Well, in our defense, it is getting harder to keep up with all the screw ups.
Since when are we supposed to read the OP in the first place anyway.
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - Epicurus

I'm referring to Ishaqi, Oerdick. There were too many witnesses to Haditha for it to be covered up.

A U.S. ground force conducted the Ishaqi attack, said two defense officials in Washington. After being fired upon from the targeted building, the soldiers pulled back and called in airstrikes by an Air Force AC-130 gunship, which attacked and collapsed the building, they said.
One of the officials said the investigation into the circumstances of the Ishaqi attack found that four people in the building were killed by U.S. forces, including two women and a child. The main target of the attack, said by U.S. intelligence to be an al-Qaida figure, ran from the building but was later captured, the official said.
Caldwell said that a search found "the body of Abu Ahmed plus three noncombatants," while the "investigating officer concluded that possibly up to nine collateral deaths resulted from this engagement but could not determine the precise number due to collapsed walls and heavy debris."
Local Iraqis said there were 11 dead, contending they were killed by U.S. troops before the house was leveled.
The bloody aftermath of the attack was captured at the time in the footage shot by an AP Television News cameraman. The video became the focus of attention Friday when the BBC aired it in the wake of recent allegations of U.S. troops killing unarmed civilians.
The footage shows at least one adult male and four of the children with deep wounds to the head that could have been caused by bullets or shrapnel. One child has an obvious entry wound to the side and the inside of the walls left standing were pocked with bullet holes. A voice on the tape said there were clear bullet wounds in two people.
