military video today showing the killing of more than a dozen Iraqis

military video today showing the killing of more than a dozen Iraqis, including two Reuters employees, with a spokesperson for the whistle-blower group slamming the soldiers involved for their “video game” like behavior.That video, which is incredibly disturbing and graphic, shows a group of Iraqis walking the streets of New Baghdad, identified as armed “insurgents” by military personnel. The group, which reportedly included Reuters replica Vacheron Constantin 47120.000R-9099 Men's Watch photojournalist Namir Noor-Eldeen and assistant Saeed Chmagh, is gunned down by a pair of Apache attack helicopters. Later, a minivan that appears to come to the assistance of the wounded is fired upon.Australian journalist and WikiLeaks advisory board member Julian Assange released the video at the National Press Club in Washington.

“The behavior of the pilots is like they're playing a video game,” said Assange, according to a report from Fox News. “It's like they want to get high-scores in that computer game.”Assange may be referring to the detached, casual nature of the dialogue between military personnel and the excitable language following the attack.
