Patterico’s Pontifications » Hagee’s Office Responds: Contradicts L.A. Times: "I heard back from General Hagee’s office yesterday regarding my inquiry about when Gen. Hagee briefed John Murtha about Haditha. The bottom line: Gen. Hagee’s office has directly contradicted an assertion by the L.A. Times that Gen. Hagee briefed John Murtha on Haditha before Murtha accused Marines of killing civilians in cold blood. Gen. Hagee’s office confirmed to me that the General’s first briefing to Murtha took place a week after Murtha had already made his public accusations."

No one has been charged and no Article 32 proceedings have been instituted. Wuterich's lawsuit in my opinion forced Hagee to state publicly that he never briefed Murtha about the case until more than a week after Murtha claimed the men had engaged in "cold blooded"murders.
Well I think that the rules of engagement may be questionable, but so far it seems that whatever happened was not cold blooded murder. More like being in the wrong place at the wrong time. I did hear that the military has stated there was "no knowing cover up"...of course that does not keep Murtha from shooting his mouth off that there was. I wonder if he realizes that this is not about Bush, it is about a former Marine accusing active duty Marines. The lack of honor is stunning.
