The New York Times Bestseller list is "pure propaganda", says Elon Musk. The newspaper even admitted in court it is "editorial content", not factual. But what about the Sunday Times version? Steven Tucker investigates.

Getting away with murder

U.S. Marine is CLEARED!

A US marine, captured on film killing a wounded Iraqi at point blank range during November's assault on Fallujah, will not be formally charged because of a lack of evidence, CBS News reported yesterday.

The November 13 shooting occurred during a search of a mosque in a widely broadcast incident that sparked worldwide outrage.
The International Committee of the Red Cross said it showed "utter contempt for humanity".

An embedded NBC cameraman filmed a trooper raising his rifle and shooting at point blank an apparently unarmed, wounded Iraqi slumped against amosque wall.

Although the insurgents were found to be unarmed, investigators said one of the marines believed he had seen one moving possibly for a weapon.

The rifleman was withdrawn from combat during the investigation but the graphic footage enraged many, even months after the Abu Ghraib prisoner abuse scandal.

Fallujah was raided to beat key rebel enclaves ahead of January's election.

I haven't seen anyone come on this site and say that it wasn't a murder and that these people should be brought to justice. Since you have such a problem with this site feel free to piss off. This site can do without your idiotic and racist statements.
