Ex-US marine: I killed Iraqi civilians

[GHOSTDANCER]

A former US marine has said his unit killed more than 30 innocent Iraqi civilians in just two days.

In graphic testimony presented to a Canadian asylum tribunal on Monday, Sergeant Jimmy Massey's evidence appeared to bolster war crime claims made by fugitive US paratrooper Jeremy Hinzman.

The 26-yea-old Hinzman said he would face persecution if sent home to the US, in a politically charged case which could set a precedent for at least two other American deserters seeking asylum in Canada.
