Photos Show Marines Burning Bodies in Iraq 
-------------------------------------------


 
The Pentagon has opened a probe following the publication of graphic
photographs appearing to show U.S. marines burning dead bodies in Iraq.
The website TMZ says the images were taken in Fallujah in 2004. They
show U.S. soldiers pouring gasoline on the bodies of victims described
as slain Iraqi militants. Others show the bodies' charred remains and a
U.S. soldier posing next to a skull.
