Ex-Marine platoon sergeant says we are committing genocide in Iraq

Forced to resign his position after complaining to superiors about the way they were waging war in Iraq, Jimmy Massey explains the "rules of engagement", tells stories of his own experiences, and says he gave up his career after 12 years in the service because he is not willing to kill civilians for the U.S. Marine Corps. He explains why he wasn't surprised about what was happening in Abu Ghraib.

Listen to this seven-minute BBC interview, courtesy an excellent website, Bushflash, authored by the very talented Eric Blumrich.

And here is a May 24, 2004, Democracy Now! interview (written transcript) with Jimmy Massey.
