Good Scoop, Boys! (NOT!!!!)
The Drudgereport breathlessly links to its own report of a French TV station's intention to air "stolen" footage allegedly smuggled out of Iraq only recently by a civilian contract worker.
The three-and-a-half minutes of footage were taken from the helicopter firing at the three individuals, who were considered by the US military to be suspicious.
Conversations between the helicopter pilot, the sharpshooter and their commanding officer -- who had a video link and is giving orders in real time -- can be heard on the tape.
The footage shows how the three men were killed one after the other. After the deaths of his two companions, the third attempted to hide under a truck, but was hit by helicopter gunfire.
"Got the guy right here," says the sharpshooter, as the wounded man is seen crawling on the ground.
"Good. Fire. Hit him," replies the officer.
Hey, sounds like a real good get.
It is a good get.
I hope they paid rhe guy who stole the tape a boatload of money.
It's so good that ABC News aired it in January.
Splash, out
