Murder from above

On April 5, 2010 WikiLeaks released a classified US military video depicting the indiscriminate murder of over a dozen people in the Iraqi suburb of New Baghdad — including two Reuters news staff. The video, shot from an Apache helicopter gun-site, clearly shows the unprovoked slaying of a wounded Reuters employee and his rescuers. Two young children involved in the rescue were also seriously wounded.

Anyone who doubts that war is anything other than organized murder should watch this video.
