"As sensitive as this is, we want to make sure the world has an accurate picture of the events," the photographer, Kevin Sites, an American freelance cameraman working for NBC News, said to a reporter at the military base near Fallujah where he is staying." ///// you should have thought of that before you turned in the tape. you are the best guy these criminals have. greg

Sites you are a scumbag. these men probably saved your sorry butt more than once (I'll bet they don't make THAT mistake again). I have a suggestion for you sweetheart. Use your pulitzer money to buy a house in germany. You don't deserve to live in America anymore. Ricardo Birmele
I notice that each of these prisoners still has his head. An interesting distinction when comparing the behavior of our brave soldiers with the cowardly islamists who kidnap and murder innocent -- and unarmed -- people. Attila
I reject the premise that terrorist is a ‘soldier’.... Senor Akbar
Idiotic statement from some leftie on this site reads: Im exhausting of stand that kind of shit. (You mean to say stand in this shit of a foreign country) Why dont better adopt the multiralism over the unilateralism. (Multiralism?? If you mean multilateralism, you should say that. Also the word "don't" is a contraction. Stick with Spanish, amigo. I dont like the holy roman empire. You like the loser country you are in south of the border? AllahJ.AkbarJr.
Loser site. You guys probably take this place seriously. Kevin, leave the brave men alone and go home to mommy. seajay

The marine in Fallujah deserves a pat on the back - not a trial.You didn't see what the marine saw and I'm not sure you would recognize the danger if you did. If the "dead feigning" insurgent so much as twitched he deserved what he got. Apparently there was no danger (hindsight) but everyone in that room including yourself could have been in extreme danger. THINK! Robert Kuta
These "Images of War" suck........what the hell are these photos about anyway........so let me get this straight....somebody takes a black and white photo of a McDomalds sign and calls it art...."Images of War" no wonder Im not in the field of so called "arts" I prefer to do something a little more challenging in life.

Judy, Ben Franklin (the "real"?!? one) has too much hate for America, the president and our military to ever understand the constitution or just about anything. Funny how they can never defend our fighting in WWII, but would complain if we were living in a Nazi Germany. Or maybe they wouldn't. It is difficult figuring out how they "think". God Bless America, and the military. Jessica
John American is completely correct about the Geneva Convention. Ben Franklin ("the real??? one"???) is living in a little dream world if he thinks we're there for Amoco and Halliburton. That is getting quite old, give it up. And the hate-Bush crowd is in the minority, give that up, too. I suggest you go live in one of those blue states -- oh, I mean, counties, because you can live in your own little world of hatred toward the military, the president, and America. Well, maybe you aren't American. To think that (if you are American) many soldiers died for your freedom to express your ill thoughts. Judy
To "Ben Franklin (the Real One)": I read your post, and I suggest you re-read the Constitution, if you ever read it. The Constitution does NOT require Congress to declare war. The president has the power to declare war. Congress , however, has to vote to PAY for it. P.S: for your enlightenment: We never declared war on Germany. We declared war on Japan on Dec 8th, 1941, but not on Germany. By the way, Germany never attacked us prior to our getting into the war. Judy

I am also a Muslim and I too am ashamed...I must admit that the entire World is owned and controlled by the White Man....He is the smartest on the planet and he deserves to own it...I just hope Bush forgives us all and allows us to live...under his rule!! John American
I reject the premise that terrorist is a ‘soldier’. Soldiers wear a uniform of some established government which these terrorist do not. As such, the terrorist are not covered by the Geneva Convention rules, other than the part about being armed combatants without uniforms, and as such, are considered spies or saboteurs and can be shot on sight. The marine did exactly what is called for in that situation. When an enemy, soldier or terrorist, does not surrender (for those of you are not in France and country which is very familiar with surrendering; that means putting your hands above your head to show you have no weapons) and hides his hands from view while pretending to be ‘dead’ then the soldier /terrorist is still considered to be a combatant and should be shot. Other wise, the honorable U.S. Marine would be putting himself and his unit (along with the reporter) at risk for a grenade or improvised explosive attack. By the way, this marine unit lost a soldier the day before in this exact situation tending to a wounded terrorist that set of an explosion upon examination. Further, note the fact that the other injured terrorists were not shot because they did show their hands; thus, no longer an active combatant. Mind you, I wouldn’t have shed a tear if the Marines had removed those scum bags from the gene pool at the same time, but I can respect the fact the Marines took the risk the remaining injured would no longer poise a threat. The fact the terrorist (by the way, don’t call them insurgents which is merely a romantic term used to generate sympathy for the enemy, call them what they are – foreign Syrian or non-Iraqi Arabs terrorists) did not actually posses a weapon of Improvised Explosive Devise doesn’t change the fact that he could have and as such, ought to be shot. Just FYI for terrorist, in the future to avoid death remember to properly an without question surrender; i.e. put hands in the air,or better yet, simply return to their native country and find a job.

I am an Arab & a Muslim, and I must admit...I, like MOST Arabs and Muslims am ASHAMED of the way we have behaved around the World. The last comment was correct...We have acted like ANIMALS, and I just hope the Marines and George W. Bush take MERCY on us all!!! John American
