This news made me think of this cartoon from the great Cox and Forkum.
When news first broke about Haditha - I recall some journalists calling it worse than Mai Lai. People like John Murtha were quick to call it murder. Now that the facts are in and have been reviewed. I'm guessing it will get very little coverage in the media - nothing like the frenzy that originally greeted the news about Haditha. And I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for anyone to apologize for the slurs they made about the Marines who were putting their lives on the line in Iraq.
