Yes, I read that article by the journalist who filmed the soldier shooting the quiet, unarmed man. It sounds like the soldier who fired was just really scared and hopped up by all the violence. Young guys like that are going to be coming back with post-traumatic stress disorders, and never really be the same again mentally. It is really a shame.

I thought it was disgraceful that there was commentary in America suggesting that the cameraman should have just "lost" the film, that he was not a patriotic American. I heard someone voicing that opinion on Imus last week. I guess some people don't understand the ethical code of journalists very well.
