Video Shows 2007 Reporter Slaying in Iraq

 


NEW YORK (TheStreet) --WikiLeaks on Monday posted on the Internet a classified U.S. military video showing what appeared to be the arbitrary killing of more than a dozen people in the Iraqi suburb of New Baghdad by Americans, including Reuters photographer Namir Noor-Eldeen and his driver Saeed Chmagh, in July of 2007.

The video was recorded from an Apache helicopter gun-site and features the unprovoked attack of an injured Reuters reporter and those coming to or involved his aid, which included children.

WikiLeaks managed to get ahold of the video and related documents through military whistleblowers, and it was made viewable after cracking a video encryption. Its authenticity has been confirmed by members of the military, according to reports.
