by Sher Zieve, Accuracy in Media: As charges against U.S. Marines - regarding an apparent fabrication of the “Haditha massacre” - continue to be proved false and based upon unsubstantiated “evidence,” only some of the leftist media appear to be standing by their original spin on the story. This media’s bent was based upon their proposition that the Islamist terrorists were telling the truth that the accused Marines were guilty of murder. . . . former Marine and House Rep. Jack Murtha (D-PA) - helped their media spread the poison. Based upon no evidence at all, Murtha said that the accused Marines had “killed innocent civilians in cold blood” and “I know there was a cover-up someplace!” Neither of these ill-advised statements has proven to be true. In fact, they have been confirmed to have been bogus. . . . The AP reports that one of the hearing officers, Lt. Col. Paul Ware, “said murder charges brought against Sharratt were based on unreliable witness accounts, poor forensic evidence and questionable legal theories.” In an 18-page report, Ware wrote: “The government version is unsupported by independent evidence. To believe the government version of facts is to disregard clear and convincing evidence to the contrary.” Charges against the Marines are in the process of being dropped. However, to date there has not been even a hint of a slight apology from those who blatantly and unconscionably accused these Marines of murder - including accusatory members of the Democrat-run U.S. Congress. . . . elected Democrat officials refuse to apologize to those soldiers who fight and die to protect these same officials and their right to vilify them. These are revolting behaviors from those electees who should know better . . . [Read More]
