AP Story on Charges Against GIs on the Rise
BY Herschel Smith

The Marine Times is carrying a story from the AP on the number and gravity of charges against GIs increasing. It is worth the read, but I still contend that it isn’t happening the way it is portrayed (at least, not in the absence of compelling evidence which we should be able to ascertain after a trial, and not in the main; if it is happening, it is not to the extent that it is purported to be). It is entitled “Experts: Put Atrocity Accusations into Context.”
I float a view in two earliers posts (Haditha Hoax and Future Knee-Jerk Reactions, and New Taliban & Al Qaida Strategy) that this is part of an overall pattern of propaganda by the enemy.
Time will tell who is right.
