Another image provided by a lawyer for several of the victims, Khaled Salem Rsayef. It shows a house in Haditha where citizens were allegedly killed by US Marines.

The Haditha killings have been compared with the My Lai Massacre in Vietnam, where hundreds of innocent civilians were killed by US soldiers in 1968. Like My Lai, the killings in Haditha are believed to have been motivated by revenge.
