A sad letter

Zeyad, from Healing Iraq, brings to attention the letter from a mother that lost her son to an stupid game from occupation forces:

Yes, they killed him and they broke my heart, try to imagine that dear sirs and ask your wives how hard it is for a mother to see her fruit ripen only to be thrown by sinful hands and to be swept away without any mercy or humanity. Those soldiers have turned everything America has ever stood for into one big lie. I was a victim, and there are and will be many more.
Of course, the whole thing has been already characterized as a hoax, as an innocent game gone horribly wrong, as just one bad apple among 130 thousand, etc., all excuses.
A murder is a murder, no matter what.
The mother, in her letter, asks for an investigation and resolution fo that crime. Let's hope that a real investigation and results come forward soon.

Damn.
Let me guess, the "flag waving/pie in the sky/why aren't they thanking us for liberating them" crowd is calling it a hoax?
