An American Scandal: The True Story behind the Killing of 14 U.S. Marines 
in Haditha.

Dijla Waheed/ Communicated from Baghdad by Dr. Fadhil Badran


Today, Pentagon officials have concluded it was a massive roadside bomb 
that killed 14 Marines in the western city of Haditha! Some people were 
astonished and surprised by the announcement of this news. Many of us have 
multiplied this number by 4. All people were correct with respect to their 
surprise and expectation. But where is the truth?! Why did the American 
Administration and the Pentagon officials go out now and acknowledge this 
big loss in one operation?! What’s next to this declaration which 
disappointed the American’s public opinion including those who were 
pro-Bush and those who were beating the drums of war?

The key answer for these questions is the people of Haditha who had 
witnessed the whole event or some of it. Here is what they had to say – 
yesterday- and their stories have been confirmed today by the American 
pronouncement.

Following the retreat of the American troops from the areas of Haditha and 
Haqlania as a result of a massive fire and brave assault by the Iraqi 
resistance forces, the American Marines have kidnapped some old men, a 
little girl and some men who were praying in nearby mosques and held them 
as hostages. The Americans have also observed the retreat and redeployment 
of the resistance fighter around the towns and behind the enemy lines. The 
defeated Marines have tried the day before yesterday to trap the resistance 
fighters in ambushes installed in places they expected the fighters would 
pass through. The best of the Marine’s engineering officers have 
participated in the installation of the ambushes. However, they did not 
know that they were being watched ever since they entered the area by the 
resistance reconnaissance. The resistance fighters then attacked the 
Marines and killed three and took ten of them as prisoners of war, five of 
them were engineering officers. The resistance fighters have released one 
wounded Marine soldier in order to let him go and inform his commanders – 
who were in the neighbouring area- that the fighters were ready to 
negotiate the release of the Americans if the Americans were ready to 
release the old men and the little girl from Haditha who were taken 
hostages by the retreated Marines.

The criminal Marines have answered the resistance fighter by a new attack 
using all kinds of weapons including helicopters and cannon boats in an 
attempt to surround the freedom fighters. The brave Iraqi freedom fighters 
responded to the attack and lost four of their comrades. They then 
retreated and took with them the ten American prisoners. The freedom 
fighter realised that the Americans forces did not respect or even tried to 
preserve the souls of the best of their officers and soldiers. They also 
remembered the crimes committed by the American forces and their 
intelligence against Iraqi prisoners of war a few months ago. Namely, the 
Americans have tortured and killed in cold blood some captured Iraqi 
resistance fighters and threw them in the river over the Haditha-Haqlania 
Bridge  which is now call the martyr’s bridge. The Iraqi freedom fighter 
had then no choice but to kill the American prisoners of war and threw them 
in the river the same way as the Americans previously did -over the same 
bridge- just to remind them about the crimes they have committed against 
the Iraqi prisoners of war and to let them bear the responsible for the 
lost lives of their comrades as a result of their refusal to negotiate the 
terms for their safe release.

Now, what the American forces gonna do when most of their officers have 
already been informed about what had happened? The death of the ten 
American officers – who were considered to be some of the best-, could have 
been prevented. How would the American Administration stop or prevent the 
spread of this scandal among its forces? How would it cover up the killing 
of ten of its best officers which had occurred before the naked eyes of 
hundreds of Marines and inhabitants of Haditha and Haqlania? They were not 
mercenaries from Latin America, South East Asia or Africa, they were 
Americans?! Therefore, the criminal American Administration has chosen to 
announce about their death today, 36 hour after their killing! The faked 
story about their killing by a roadside bomb was designed to cover up the 
failure to save their lives. The next step expected to be taken by the 
American occupation force following this announcement is the commitment of 
a new war crime against the innocent civilians in Haditha and Haqlania as a 
cowardly vengeance act in order to deviate the attention of the mass media 
away from their failure and unwillingness in rescuing their colleagues.
