I have just witnessed a murder on my TV screen

We have all let this occur, but there is hope and it will manifest it's self soon. We will see the results of our actions and what our way of life will bring.
As I sit here and write this I have tears streaming down my face, I am shaking and my heart is pounding. I have just witnessed a murder on my TV screen.
While watching Lateline on Australian ABC television there was a report from Fallujah. In the story they showed a marine saying, “I’ve just injured one, he’s between the two buildings”. At that moment another marine walks over to the gap between the two houses, he then climbs on a forty four gallon drum aims his gun at the injured Iraqi and fires one shot.
The marine then climbs back down saying, “He’s done”.

Execution apparently endorsed by uk journalist

on Sky News
During the action, he says 'the Americans can take no chances the insurgent may have a twenty pound bomb strapped to him'.Clearly being embedded with the marines has made him go native.

It surely must be a watershed for the UK and global public who witnessed this atrocity. As moral human beings we simply cannot stand by and let this happen.
I haven't yet read any newspapers today, but, if it is not reported for what it quite plainly is and I repeat, murder, or even at all then I'm sorry but I will have lost whatever little respect I had for journalism and the media in general in the UK.
We owe it to ourselves not to let this incident disappear without a trace.

So, less a journalist than someone seeking an appropriate 'response' to befall them!
Like those Fallujans trapped by the fascist blizkrieg, who reported that they are speechless at the destruction & violence poured upon them - I am speechless but for one word:
REVENGE.
Soliders, politicians, 'journalists' - targets.
Revenge.
Revenge.
Revenge.
Revenge.
Revenge.
