AP Skewing The News To The Left View

This news head line caught my attention on the Internet: Marines announce murder, other charges. My first thought was about the accusations relating to the American military and Haditha.

Here is the opening sentence:

Seven Marines and a Navy corpsman were charged Wednesday with premeditated murder in the shooting death of an Iraqi man and could face the death penalty if convicted.

After reading the first sentence, again I am thinking Haditha. My thinking was amazement because non-leftist sources were beginning to point to evidence that much of the accusations were staged by Islamofascist insurgents and bought into by the MSM. There have been huge indications that the violence at Haditha was the fault of insurgents and anything pointing toward Marines was from unsubstantiated sources.

So, I keep reading. In the second to last paragraph (the lucky 13th paragraph) I read:

The case is separate from the alleged killing by other Marines of 24 Iraqi civilians at Haditha last November. A pair of investigations related to that case are still under way and no criminal charges have been filed.

Nearly the entire article is complete and the AP reports that the horrendous murder charges have NOTHING to do with Haditha. In fact the charges being brought up on the seven Marines and Navy corpsman have to make it past Article 32 proceedings before a Court Martial is considered.

The AP is doing its best to convict military personnel in the public media. In fairness the AP should try to uncover facts as to why Americans would be so belligerent. It might have something to do with a brutal enemy that hates us and itself practices no military rules of engagement. Why is not the AP and other MSM not reporting about possible war crimes from Islamofascist insurgents? Could it be the AP and the MSM are discreetly rooting for the success of the Islamofascists and for the failure of American boys protecting such rights as the freedom of the press? Hmm...
