CAMP FALLUJAH, Iraq — A video posted to a terrorist website and aired by some media organizations purporting to show the improvised explosive devise attack that killed 10 U.S. Marines Dec. 1 is disinformation. The circumstances of the IED attack near Fallujah do not match those shown on the video. While we are unable to discern if the video is authentic, the statement claiming that the video shows the Dec. 1 IED attack near Fallujah is false.
