The Video Of The Year

This video should be nominated as the video of the year worldwide , you have probably heard about it by now : "Collateral murder" is a leaked video showing the American army murdering Iraqi civilians including two Reuters news staff : Journalist Namir Noor-Eldeen and driver Saeed Chmagh.
 You can see the video below. "Warning : graphic content"





Some people will defend the Apache pilots and say that they thought that they were killing a group of militants as they had mistaken the cameras Noor-Elden and Chmagh were carrying as weapons , well this is not an excuse , it is not an excuse at all.   Honestly it would have been more honorable if they were killed because they are reporters not to be slayed like that in a cold blood by mistake for carrying their cameras !!
I respect Wikileaks , seriously hats off to their wonderful efforts and their courage to publish stuff thing.  I feel angry because I know as Arab citizens , we will be able to restore back the rights of these Iraqi citizens as it should. I feel angry because I know no Arabic official will be brave the matter and address it as a crime of war !!
Now I wonder what Reuters will do.
