Collateral Murder, another U.S. massacre, this time caught on tape. When you watch the video bare in mind the U.S. military claimed the victims died in a battle that took place between U.S. forces and insurgents:
“There is no question that coalition forces were clearly engaged in combat operations against a hostile force”
—Lieutenant-Colonel Scott Bleichwehl,
spokesman for U.S. forces in Baghdad. (New York Times)
The reality is a bunch of coward rednecks flying around in helicopters committing murder from high above.
When the Nuremberg Tribunal described a war of aggression as the supreme war crime, because it “contains within itself the accumulated evil of the whole,” this is the kind of thing they were talking about. These trigger happy rednecks flying around in helicopters just shouldn’t be in Iraq in the first place.
And this redneck nation wonders why people want to fly planes into their buildings.
