The New Republic Investigates Itself
Pulp Fiction?
The New Republic magazine says it is conducting an investigation into questions about a series of disturbing articles it published supposedly written by a U.S. soldier in Baghdad. The liberal publication is responding to objections first raised by The Weekly Standard -- which alerted bloggers who have come up with many 
skeptical observations.
The articles are written under the pseudonym "Scott Thomas" and detail offensive behavior such as one soldier's use of a Bradley Fighting Vehicle to crash through concrete barriers and kill dogs, another soldier's wearing of part of a human skull as a crown and a group of soldiers ridiculing a disfigured woman over a facial injury sustained in an IED attack. Many of these allegations have been challenged as unlikely or impossible by bloggers identifying themselves as troops in Iraq.
Weekly Standard editor Bill Kristol tells The Washington Post that it appears the articles are frauds and that not one individual has confirmed any part of them. The New Republic says it has corroborated details in the articles with members of the soldier's unit, but continues to look into the matter.

I would highly recommend reading some of the responses to the article posted at the Weekly Standard.
This fucktard is slandering our troops and may be trying to set the stage for a new Winter Soldier debacle. This garbage cannot be allowed to stand.
