Falluja, Iraqi for Tragedy
Yeah, we've all heard that a US Marine shot an unarmed Iraqi and killed him. Understandably, his fellow troops are defending him, but the video that has apparently been released isn't going to help his case.
A Marine can be heard saying on the pool footage provided to Reuters Television: "He's f***ing faking he's dead."
"The Marine then raises his rifle and fires into the man's head," Sites said.
NBC said the Marine, who had reportedly been shot in the face himself the previous day, said immediately after the shooting: "Well, he's dead now."
Need visual aids of the horrid conditions? Check out this site for unadulterated images that prove this war isn't just affecting soldiers and terrorists. Many thousands of ordinary Iraqi's are being maimed or killed every day:

A fucking two year old! Want to see how bad it gets? Click more for the closer shot of what happened to him.
I can't even begin to tell what the heck is going on with him, but just imagine you're two year old in that same situation. Now you truly understand what horrible people the Iraqi's think we are. It makes my stomach turn, just thinking about all those poor, innocent people. No "freedom" is worth this. This isn't a democracy, nor is it leading to one. We've got to get out of there.
