Haditha Marines were props for anti war left smear
Michelle Malkin:
Democrats have taken a vacation from history when it comes to counterinsurgency warfare. Historically insurgents lose 90 percent of the time, but Democrats have a belief that counter insurgents lose 100 percent of the time unless they are willing to practice genocide against the insurgents. Professor William Polk has written the book on this thesis called Violent Politics. For Democrats Haditha fit this "inevitable" premise.
As the cases are falling apart, Democrats and anti war activist should take another look at what Haditha is like today after a successful counterinsurgency.
Quoted material removed. You may read the original at the link above.One reason Murtha won't apologize is that he was portraying the Marines as murderers and victims at the same time. The victim meme was meant to argue as another reason for retreating from the war in Iraq.
