Marine apologises

From Democracy Now!:

[A] US marine has apologized for a widely-viewed video that shows him singing a song about killing Iraqi civilians. The marine, Corporal Joshua Belile, is seen performing the song to applauding troops. In a statement Wednesday, Belile said the song was intended as a joke and bore no connection to the killing of Iraqi civilians by US Marines in Haditha.

Corporal, if that song [lyrics including "As the bullets began to fly, the blood sprayed from between her eyes, and then I laughed maniacally."] constitutes comedy for you, you need a few decades in a padded cell.
