More on the Fallujah marine

Two must-read columns. NRO has posted a column by our friend Mac Owens — former Marine platoon leader in Vietnam, current professor of national security affairs at the Naval War College — arguing the case that the Fallujah shooting was an act of war rather than a war crime: “A shooting in Fallujah.” Sunday’s Telegraph carried a column by Kevin Myers providing necessary context: “A marine’s gotta do what a marine’s gotta do.”
