A "trophy" video appearing to show security guards in Baghdad randomly shooting Iraqi civilians has sparked two investigations after it was posted on the internet.
I have to wonder how the spin on this is going to shape up. If at all it's going to shape up!!

I think the music and sound are added to the video and are not real. I noticed that at a transition in the video, the music was not interrupted. I think the “shooting for fun” is evident, however. I don’t see any proof of the identity of these sick minded people. It looks like they were in a civilian car because other cars approached them without fear before they got shot at.

Well yeah the music is most probably added, but the firing is definitely there, you could clearly see bullets hit the cars and the cars even ran into each other at one point.
I remember having a quick conversation with an American contractor in Amman once as he was on his way back to the US. He said, word for word, “they give you DoD cards, if you have a DoD card, no one can touch you. You can walk up to any guy and kill him, the worst they’ll do is get you out of iraq”
Really? What does DoD stand for?
