There's not much to defend, Apeman. These asshat Jarheads took video and still photographs, for God's sake! These pictures even show large quantities of what is easily identifiable as 5.56mm rifle brass ( which the Iraqis don't use ) on the floors of the houses in question. Nobody gets to bitch about being called a murderer when they took boastful videos and photographs of the aftermath of the murders in question.
I'm not surprised. After all, dehumanizing the enemy seems to be an inevitable behavior in warfare. Certainly the wannabe-sailors are guilty of such a thing.

(Yes, I am insulting the Marine Corps. Deal with it.)

The point is, warfare is the greatest tragedy imaginable in human experience. We would do well if we took care to avoid it at all costs.
