Why did you spell it An Bar?
I do think it's ridiculous to be so upset about one particular incident of murdering civilians. We do it all the time. It's called collateral damage and its yet another item on the long list of 'acceptable losses' that we agreed to when we invaded Iraq.
Mistakes happen in war, which is one big-ass reason it should be avoided at all costs, not used as a political tool by some mental midget who wanted to get a little excitement and a chance to wear a real-live flight suit out of his four years.
I can't blame these marines, they thought they were shooting bad guys. I
can blame their intelligence apparatus and their leadership, but when you send out a group of guys whose job it is to kill, don't get mad when they kill someone.
