Yes, and more. They were properly prosecuting a military action for the benefit of all of us. As they were commanded to do.

Reprehensible, yes. Beyond understanding, no.
This was a put up job from the start. This was a product of an enemy propagandist and a traitorous enemy sympathizer.
Since betrayal and treason carry zero pain or punishment in our current degeneration of culture, it is predictable that such occurs and we’ve not seen the worst of it yet.
A 12-year old survivor of the alleged massacre of innocent civilians by U.S. Marines patrolling Haditha has admitted she had prior knowledge of the plot to detonate an IED as their convoy was passing by her house on the morning of Nov. 19, 2005.
In a CNN interview broadcast Wednesday, Safa Younis - who says eight members of her family were killed by U.S. troops - recalled that she was getting ready for school as the Marine Humvee approached.
"I was planning to go to school. I was about to go out of bed. I knew the bomb would explode so I covered my ears," the youngster said, according to a CNN translator. "The bomb [then] exploded," she explained. "The bomb struck an armored vehicle. I don't know if it was a Humvee or an armored vehicle. When the bomb exploded, they came straight to my house."

Why a Senator would use enemy testimony to make these accusations is beyond understanding unless he is plain stupid.
