Aren't MEDICS supposed to HEAL PEOPLE, not KILL THEM?
"US soldier guilty in killing of Iraqis" by George Frey, Associated Press | February 21, 2009
VILSECK, Germany - A US Army medic was convicted of murder yesterday for his involvement in the execution-style slayings the deaths of four Iraqi prisoners [who were] bound and blindfolded Iraqi detainees [and] whose bodies were dumped in a Baghdad canal in 2007 after they were shot in the back of the head in spring 2007.
The court sentenced him to life in prison.... with the possibility of parole....

Leahy, 28, was acquitted of murder in a separate incident involving the death of another Iraqi in January 2007....

One, I heard the guys liked it over there now and two, we justify war crimes and mass-murder here in AmeriKa!

Later that night, patrol members took the Iraqis to a remote area and shot them in retribution for the attacks on the unit, according to testimony....
Try to think of it as a LIBERATION PROGRAM, Iraqis.
