Some folks just won't let Haditha go. initially the Government prosecuted eight Marines, but as facts emerged, they dropped six of those cases after having their asses handed to them on the first one. The final case was settled with a plea deal. my take is that the defendant is tired of this endless dragging and want to get on with his life. The government offered the plea deal as a means to save a little face after getting smacked like a baby's butt at birth in the first trial. Seven years? hell, they violated his right to a speedy trial long ago.
Haditha was a hotbed of pro iraqi shit heads. That the new government wants to continue dragging it into the muck just shows how bad its gonna get there now that we have left. Its looking more like we made a major mistake in pulling out after only ten years. We should have stuck arround until Iran was a democracy instead of a thugocracy. Too bad we didn't plunder the country of its vast oil reserves like dumbascraps claim we were gonna do.
