Talk:Frank Wuterich

message: The article only gives one version of the incident, and after an initial phrase "according to Wuterich" it goes on as if facts were presented. The version of those close to the victims is very different from this, and even US senators have described the incident as a massacre, based on official investigations. Please give equal weight to both sides. Furthermore, I see no information in the fact that family members have spoken out in his defense. They were not there. Socafan 22:55, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I just added several lines about news reports refuting Wuterich's story, and am going to remove the NPOV tag.  Please feel free to expand the section as much as possible.  As for the family members, considering Wuterich has not spoken for himself, I don't see any reason not to include the info, so long as it doesn't come to dominate the whole article.

replies: text: Thank you. I still do not see why we need family members who were not there defending him in the article, but that is just my opinion. Socafan 07:41, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

text: I removed the disproportionate amount of information on Wuterich's view of events so that the article can be NPOV. I kept the reference to the washington post. Vorpal Bladesnicker-snack 07:01, 22 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Apparently these are not to be taken too literally. I read several articles about the hearing and every one of them used different wording. This could be due to English not being Dela Cruz' native language, so these could be translations. Or they could be similar statements made at different times in the testimony.

message: *POV tag added -- that is a no-brainer regardless of what anyone may personally think!!
*Also, image rv -- that image was not of Frank Wuterich. I just saw Wuterich on TV, and that is not the same guy. 216.194.2.12 23:53, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

message: Maybe F.W. is of German descent. The Word Wüterich means berserk, madman in German. nomen est omen. --91.60.181.111 (talk) 09:54, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Yep, that's what I thought of, too. Other online translators render the German word Wüterich as brute (see here) or violent madman (see here). --Consputus (talk) 22:25, 10 April 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Wuterich = Wüterich 

message: A Marine Corporal who took part in the Haditha Massacre was quoted but not named in the Sunday Times (UK):
“While in the house which I identified as House No 2, I did identify some targets as children before I fired my weapon killing them. My reason for this is that House No 1 was declared hostile. While in House No 1 I was told that someone ran to House No 2 making it hostile... While in House No 2 Staff-Sergeant Wuterich fired shots into the room. This again made me think the house was hostile. I went to assist him and saw that children were in the room kneeling... My training told me that they were hostile due to Sgt Wuterich firing at them ... I am trained to shoot two shots to the chest and two shots to the head and I followed my training.”
Does anyone know who this Marine is?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.213.171.98 (talk) 08:05, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

message: As per this Anonymous hacked into Wuterich's lawyers servers, taking nearly 3gb of email and duly dumping them online, and defacing their website. Tweet with more info here. This obviously should be included in the article in some form. Y u no be Russavia ლ(ಠ益ಠლ) 09:25, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
