  • Where’s The Outrage?. 2006-05-30. I guess even bloggers have a hard time getting back into the swing of things after a 3-day weekend. The blogosphere seems to be working hard to manufacture outrage today.

  • Haditha Thoughts. 2006-06-01. So Michelle Malkin and her subsidiary Hot Air are still out in front on defending the marines of Haditha. Their “citizen journalism” machine is really working overtime. Oddly enough, though Malkin et al frequently cite moonbats slavering over the incident, I haven’t seen much of it myself.

  • Haditha Marine Speaks. 2006-06-11. Good news from Haditha for a change: Marine Says Rules Were Followed. I’d like to officially apologize for initially jumping to the conclusion that those marines were guilty, based solely on initial media reports. (They could still be guilty, but I should know better than to rely on the media for facts.) Anyway, I’m more and more hopeful that the civilians in question were collateral damage instead of murder victims.

  • Monday’s Informative Links. 2006-07-10. Another in my new series of lazy blogging link-fests, otherwise known as “the things I didn’t have anything to add to.” Feel free to skip if you don’t care what I think is informative reading.

  • Year End Loose Ends: Haditha. 2007-01-01. I’ve been meaning to write about this for some time, since it was a story I was following with some interest throughout the year. I read recently that four Marines involved in the alleged killing of 24 civilians at Haditha are now being charged with murder.

  • Haditha Testimony. 2007-07-18. I saw a post go through the Virginia blogosphere yesterday declaring that the “Haditha hoax is falling apart.” It turns out this was actually the declaration of noted journalist Rush Limbaugh, after having read some opinion column at a newspaper nobody has ever heard of. I have also seen several reports this year from a place called “NewsMax” repeatedly stating that the Haditha Marines will be exonerated any minute now, but I haven’t given them much credence since the NewsMax organization has a very clear bias in this case. At any rate, the accumulation of conservative-themed rumors finally inspired me to investigate what we really know about the Haditha case.
