Phil Brennen at News Max:

A video taped from a Scan Eagle unmanned aerial vehicle purported to show the action that took place in Haditha when 24 Iraqi civilians and insurgents were killed was heavily edited by government investigators, a NewsMax investigation reveals.

The reason, according to an inside source: to avoid showing anything that exonerates the Marines who were accused of murdering the victims.

According to CNN, the video appears to show that, throughout that day, Marines engaged in fierce firefights and called in air strikes to level buildings – often with no definitive idea of who was inside.”

Had the entire video been shown it would have revealed that the Marines knew exactly who was inside – insurgents were clearly shown entering the target buildings before the structures were bombed. If CNN had been able to review the whole video, they would see that we did indeed have a definitive idea of who was inside,” an intelligence officer told NewsMax.

Gee… I wonder if anyone will care?

Harry Reid, call your office.
