Jack Murtha Owes Some Marines an Apology

The Guardian reports that the murder case against the Marines at Haditha has completely fallen apart.

The case against US marines involved in one of the most infamous incidents of the Iraq war, the killing of civilians at Haditha in 2005, appeared to have fallen apart last night.

None of the marines originally accused of carrying out the killings, which ranked alongside the 2004 Abu Ghraib prison abuses in terms of infamy, is likely to face murder charges, after a recommendation from the investigating officer that the last remaining suspect be charged with a lesser offence.

Will Congressman Murtha apologize? (H/T Amy Proctor)

Apparently not. Shame on him.
