IRAQ

Islamonline: Reuters Cameraman
Killed For Filming US Graves


AL-KHALIL, West Bank (IslamOnline.net) -- The brother of Reuters cameraman Mazen Dana said he was deliberately murdered for discovering mass graves of U.S. troops killed in Iraqi resistance attacks.

"The U.S. troops killed my brother in cold blood," Nazmi Dana told IslamOnline.net in exclusive statements.

"The U.S. occupation troops shot dead my brother on purpose, although he was wearing his press badge, which was also emblazoned on the car he was driving," he said.

Mazen told me by phone few days before his death that he discovered a mass grave dug by U.S. troops to conceal the bodies of their fellow comrades killed in Iraqi resistance attacks," Nazmi said.

"He also told me that he found U.S. troops covered in plastic bags in remote desert areas and he filmed them for a TV program. We are pretty sure that the American forces had killed Mazen knowingly to prevent him from airing his finding."

Aon: Secret Burials in the desert
Ultimate disrespect for U.S. Army personnel in Iraq

Did the Pentagon order the assassintaion of a Journalist in order to cover up secret mass burials of dead U.S Soldiers in the desert around Baghdad ?

What is really behind the killing of my colleague, the Palestinian Reuters Cameraman Mazen Dana, in Bagdad? Is the Pentagon really scared of the media telling the U.S public what is really going on in Iraq? Do the criminals in the Pentagon want to cover their crimes against their own soldiers by killing journalists in Iraq? If, then this is what can be called organized terror.

He could ultimately develop a source, a U.S. mercenary, who told him that those buried were not Iraqis, but mercenaries who had been promised green cards and U.S. citizenship in return for serving in the U.S. army. According to this source, not few of those interred were americans who had been killed in combat.
