In the words of Kevin Sites....

Just saw his post of his account in Fallujah and found it very interesting.

"He's fucking faking he's dead -- he's faking he's fucking dead."

Through my viewfinder I can see him raise the muzzle of his rifle in the direction of the wounded Iraqi. There are no sudden movements, no reaching or lunging.

However, the Marine could legitimately believe the man poses some kind of danger. Maybe he's going to cover him while another Marine searches for weapons.

Instead, he pulls the trigger. There is a small splatter against the back wall and the man's leg slumps down.

"Well he's dead now," says another Marine in the background.

More follows, and it is a glimpse of the difficult decisions that are made by all parties involved in this war.

1. A very heartfelt account about agonizing decisions. It rings true.
