Wikileaks US Apache helicopter

[-Kel-]

Wikileaks has obtained and decrypted this previously unreleased video footage from a US Apache helicopter in 2007. It shows Reuters journalist Namir Noor-Eldeen, driver Saeed Chmagh, and several others as the Apache shoots and kills them in a public square in Eastern Baghdad. They are apparently assumed to be insurgents. After the initial shooting, an unarmed group of adults and children in a minivan arrives on the scene and attempts to transport the wounded. They are fired upon as well. The official statement on this incident initially listed all adults as insurgents and claimed the US military did not know how the deaths ocurred. Wikileaks released this video with transcripts and a package of supporting documents on April 5th 2010 on http://collateralmurder.com

Warning this video shows all of it. So, some might not want to watch.

I don't see anything improper, though I probably wouldn't have authorized the shots on the van.

Supposedly the van was media, but I'd want something to back that up.

Why were there two small children in a media van?

More likely, the van was some poor slob who tried to stop and help.  That'll teach him.

Kind of hard to learn from something that involves death by gunshot.

Just watched the videos.

Fuckers. They opened fire on
1. Civilians
2. Civilians trying the recover the dead bodies of the inncocent men they just killed.

Laughing all the way, treating it like a fucking Counterstrike game. Chances are they'll get medals and an honourable discharge, although all they deserve is a bullet in the brainstem.
