Is This A War Crime?

On Newsworld International yesterday afternoon a reporter interviewed one of the US troops present at the horrible scene in Fallujah.

According to him they fired only after being fired upon and were very careful about who they shot at.

However as the reporter informed us, there were no bullet holes present in the schoolhouse the troops had occupied, nor were any troops injured. As well, there was countless damage done in the direction the troops were firing, in fact a woman was shot while sitting in her house nearby.

As well, this soldier's account doesn't hold up considering the many people who required treatment in the aftermath. Some of the victims were very young children.

It appears to be a knee-jerk reaction and outright abuse of power. Whatever the outcome the people of Fallujah will never forgive the US for it.

Update: For the second time this week U.S. troops open fire on a group in Fallujah. They were protesting the previous shooting.
