Fallujah: Video shows US soldier killing wounded insurgent in cold blood

The US Marine Corps launched an investigation into possible war crimes last night after video footage taken inside a mosque in Fallujah apparently showed a Marine shooting dead an unarmed Iraqi insurgent who had been taken prisoner.

The footage showed several Marines with a group of prisoners who were either lying on the floor or propped against a wall of the bombed-out building. One Marine can be heard declaring that one of the prisoners was faking his injuries.

"He's fucking faking he's dead. He faking he's fucking dead," says the Marine. At that point a clatter of gunfire can be heard as one of the Marines shoots the prisoner. Another voice can then be heard saying: "He's dead now."

The whole invasion of Iraq is a crime, and the U.S. is responsible for all who get injured or killed, either directly or indirectly, as a result of this invasion. It is not as if this case is a war crime and the rest is not. All of it is a crime.
