All signs point to: They did it. If they are found to be innocent, then you are right to assume that they didn't. If it turns out that they did murder a bunch of civilians, then the rest of us were right to consider it 'bad'.

Why is it that it is considered inappropriate for such 'negative' news to be spread and commented on? Everyone knows damn well that nothing is proven yet, but that doesn't mean that it should not be looked at based on the evidence available at the moment and tentative conclusions drawn.

How many people assumed that Islamic terrorists were to blame for 9/11 before there was any confirmation? Oh, oops, that was one you wanted to believe.

Everyone jumps to conclusions. The only trick is to reserve !final! judgement until everything is on that table. There is nothing in this thread to suggest that this is not the case.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

The cover up could have happened for various reasons, true. All of the reasons I can come up with boil down to "I (or We) were just involved in something bad. And we don't want to get caught." This right there, is an indication of someone being a bad person.

If it was an accident, and all those people were shot while the marines were trying to shoot the lone gunman behind them, then that'd be bad. If they deliberately shot those people, even worse. Trying to cover up the truth is wrong in and of itself, there is no reason for this, even if one can rationalize it to themselves.

Current climate would excuse neglecting one's duty to report on issues such as this? How so? If things were going well, or you were at least following SOP, you'd have nothing to fear from being open about it. Unless you are openly proposing that bad news, even if it is true, should not be spread because it would hurt 'the cause' or some such thing.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
