They should use Edwards more. He is an experienced and effective trial lawyer. How can they give them a pass on the video editing in the latest swift boat ad?

The following article is from the Tehran Times. I have about as much faith in what they say as I do the shifty vets that Rove/junior hired to do their dirty work.

The reason I am posting it is to see if any neocon's believe it for the simple reason that someone says it like they do with the equally unproven and ridiculous claims of the shifty vets for junior.

37 captured Iraqis summarily executed: sources

Tehran Times Political Desk
TEHRAN (MNA) –- Thirty-seven civilians and militiamen loyal to rebel Shia cleric Moqtada Sadr were summarily executed last Monday in camps established by U.S. army intelligence units on the outskirts of Najaf, informed sources in Najaf have said.

Afterwards, the bodies of the victims were abandoned in the rubble of the battles in the city, added the sources, who requested anonymity.

The sources also reported that the U.S. occupation forces tortured the captives before summarily executing them.

In addition, some former Iraqi police officers who recently deserted their posts have said that U.S. troops have been killing people for entertainment.

The sources corroborated the report, saying a number of former Iraqi Baathist officers who are serving in the Iraqi National Guard receive money from U.S. forces for killing people in Najaf.

Some Iraqi officers have also revealed that mass graves containing the bodies of Iraqis killed by U.S. occupation forces will soon be unearthed in Iraq.

Some of the over 200 deserters from the Iraqi police have also said that U.S. forces have been looting houses in Najaf.
