37. This is absolutely true, even the NBC photographer says so...
...Kevin Sikes, on his blog says the same thing. "Marines were told it was a "weapons free zone" meaning shoot any male". Ended up he even saw women and children being shot. Then that video came out and he got a ton of hate mail on his blog. It was disgusting. All these freepers leaving comments that he was "a traitor" and "you should have been shot instead", and "you don't know what you're talking about, the soldiers best friend had been blown up by a booby trapped body the day before." All these comments from guys here in the US to a guy who was embedded with those troops for months! And they're telling him he's wrong?

Also, there was that AP photographer who barely made it out alive, a week after the Fallujah assault started.. He watched families crossing the Euphrates trying to flee with white flags held overhead, getting slaughtered by Apache helicopter machine guns as they swam across. It definitely happened
