| Haditha falling apart? |
| 2006-06-10 |
| In the original version of this story, TIME reported that "one of the most damning pieces of evidence investigators have in their possession, John Sifton of Human Rights Watch told Time's Tim McGirk, is a photo, taken by a Marine with his cell phone that shows Iraqis kneeling — and thus posing no threat — before they were shot." While Sifton did tell TIME that there was photographic evidence, taken by Marines, he had only heard about the specific content of the photos from reports done by NBC, and had no firsthand knowledge. TIME regrets the error. More interesting evidence. Interesting they bury this at the end of a story titled "The Haditha Scandal's Other Casualty" They think it's America's image overseas. It will surely be somebody's image. |

| #8 It's all a wet dream on the part of the looney liberal left--chalk it up to wishful thinking on their part. |

| #7 Piss on the treasonous Time magazine and any other MSM who carried the story as fact. |

| #6 I do not have a copy of the UCMJ in hand today but are they a flight risk? And if not, why are they presently confined? Maybe I should butt out. Maybe they are guilty as sin. Who knows. They better have credible witness against them if they are locked up because the media is not AT ALL credible. Investigation is not done yet either. |

| #5 Meantime, 8 marines pine away in confinement, nervous families await their soldiers' fate. |

| #4 Guess they'll need some new troop-smearing BS for next week's cover story. |

| #3 It looks like Time is out of time with me. Those straws beak and nothing gets mended. What a farce of a news organization. They spend more time damning our soldiers more than anything else. Maybe Time "inc" should convert to Islam immediately and have sharia law imposed onto all of its employees as a test case for it's beautiful vision of utopia. I would love to see margret hansan in a burka. Maybe make Turner personally repave the west in buffalo money? The Sky is the limit. Karma may be extra bad on some people. |

| #2 ed: Hey, is that NVA Secret Police Colonel still heading up Time's foreign bureau? Nah - probably someone from some Arab propaganda ministry. |
