So as to create doubt and discredit all the rest of the ones that were real? That is these criminals MO.

I say it won't be long before they begin Swiftboating a whole bunch of dead Iraqi people.

1. Negroponte will get right on it
He certainly has plenty of experience in setting up death squads. It would be child's play for him to give some US uniforms to a bunch of Sunni criminals and pay them to massacre some Shiites (or vice versa), wait for the outcry, then "discover" the real killers.

U.S. clears troops in Iraqi deaths in Ishaqi

WASHINGTON, June 2 (Reuters) - A U.S. military probe has exonerated U.S. troops in the deaths of Iraqi civilians in the town of Ishaqi in March, finding American forces followed standard procedures and committed no misconduct, defense officials said on Friday.

The Ishaqi incident was one of a handful involving civilian deaths being investigated by the U.S. military, including the deaths of 24 civilians in the town of Haditha last November.

Police in Ishaqi, 60 miles (100 km) north of Baghdad, have said six adults and five children were shot dead in a U.S. military raid on a home on March 15.

The U.S. military maintains there were four dead in the incident, including a guerrilla, two women and a child, and said they died after troops were fired upon from the house as they arrived to arrest an al Qaeda suspect.
