Coalition killings and abuse is " a phenomenon that has become common"

Advertisements [?]

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) — Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki upbraided the U.S. military over allegations that Marines killed two dozen unarmed civilians in Haditha, calling the killings “a horrible crime” in his strongest public comments on the subject since his government was sworn in last month.

“This is a phenomenon that has become common among many of the multinational forces,” the prime minister said. “No respect for citizens, smashing civilian cars and killing on a suspicion or a hunch. It’s unacceptable.”
