New video of new Iraq massacre. US forces killed entire family, including 6-month-old baby, 75-year-old grandma. Iraqi police say family was executed

There is a new BBC story, and video, about yet another alleged US massacre of Iraqi civilians.

The US military says the family of 11 was killed when their house fell on them during a firefight with US forces. The Iraqi police say the US soldiers entered the house, lined up the entire family, including a six-month-old baby and a 75-year-old grandmother, and shot them all.

The BBC says that, from the video they have of the victims, the bullet wounds didn't look to be shot at close range - casting doubt on the execution story - but the video also made clear that the American version of the story, that the building collapsed and killed everyone, was simply untrue.

Gee, who could have ever imagined that Rumsfeld and General Pace would let the Pentagon lie to the American people and the world about the war in Iraq?

I'm sure this is just another "isolated incident."
