Did the U.S. Military Lie About 4 Executed Soldiers in Iraq

How is that possible? Four Americans are abducted by insurgents and then shot execution style:
The U.S. command on Friday confirmed that four American soldiers were abducted during a sophisticated sneak attack last week in the Shiite holy city of Karbala. It said three were shot to death and a fourth was fatally wounded with a gunshot to the head when they were found in a neighboring province.

Did the military try to coverup the shocking death of those soldiers:
On Jan. 20, the day of the highly sophisticated raid on a security meeting in the Shiite holy city of Karbala, the military said five soldiers were killed repelling the attack.

Within hours of an AP report that four of the five dead soldiers had been abducted and found dead or dying about 25 miles to the east, the military issued a long account of what took place.

It tells you how bad things are going in Iraq when U.S. troops are being abducted and murderered. Another reason why we should get out of there.
