From WaPo on Haditha
Josh White of Washington Post reports "Marine Says Rules Were Followed" on today's website Page 1.
Gleeful anti-Americanists aren't going to approve of WaPo's reporting anything that may detract from Haditha as Bush's My Lai. One can credit the Pentagon for probing both the action and the alleged cover-up. One can also credit the Post for covering this development.
My concern is that Congress may decide to interfere (in typical knee-jerk fashion) with military SOP rules of engagement. Look to John McCain to lead the charge in the Senate and John Murtha in the House.
