US Marines could face the death penalty after one of their number took horrific photographs of a massacre in Iraq on his mobile phone, The Independent on Sunday has learned. The photographs, seized by the US Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS), show many victims shot at close range in the head and chest, execution-style, according to sources who have seen them. One image shows a mother and young child bent over on the floor as if in prayer. Both have been shot dead.

- It is absurd and misleading for the mainstream media to focus on the one crime at Haditha, when thousands of such instances have occurred but not been exposed except in the alternative media. Present estimates are that around 300,000 Iraqi civilians have been murdered. They did not have the fortune to get publicized in the mainstream media, and hence their murderers - US soldiers - will not be sentenced. But, there are hundreds or thousands of US soldiers that should be sentenced for their crimes against the Iraqi people. And the non-soldiers in the White House need to be sentenced to life imprisonment for starting the war and perpetrating the mass murder of the people of Iraq.
