The UN’s call for investigation came on the same day that video emerged showing a U.S. Marine shooting dead an injured, unarmed Iraqi who was lying down in a mosque. Video of the murder has been broadcast around the world. While the military has vowed to investigate the killing, Marines interviewed by Reuters downplayed the incident and some suggested the shooting was justified. Sgt. Nicholas Graham of Pittsburg said, “I would have shot the insurgent too. Two shots to the head. You can’t trust these people. He should not be investigated. He did nothing wrong.”
