'Iraq Veterans Against the War recently learned of a video interview with Jesse MacBeth that directs viewers to IVAW’s website and phone number. IVAW was not made aware of the creation of this video program and our input on it was never sought by its producers. Jesse MacBeth is not a spokesperson for IVAW and any claims made by MacBeth about his service have not been verified. We are currently investigating these claims and will have a full statement pending its resolution.'

Remember Kelly Dougherty from the 2nd Ploughshares Trial? http://www.indymedia.ie/article/68972 - IVAW is her group. If her group says hold off on believing this video, then I'd say its good advice.
I was just looking around on google video when I came across this (like millions of other people no doubt). Guess I was fooled. Not that they will ever read it but I'll send an email to google about it. They should take it down if it is a fake.
Thanks for your vigilance folks. Should have checked it properly before posting. Definitely don't want to help rumsfield et al wiggle out of Haditha !!!

"Questions have been raised about Jesse MacBeth and his claims of service in Iraq. MacBeth came to Iraq Veterans Against the War in January 2006 asking for help, and the organization and its members extended itself to help him in various ways. Assisting veterans is one of the founding principles of IVAW and it is a mission that we take seriously. After looking into his recent claims, we have learned that Jesse is not what he represented himself to be. Accordingly, IVAW does not in any way endorse Jesse MacBeth or any of his accounts involving military service. He -- and he alone -- is responsible for them. IVAW was not aware of the creation of the video program featuring MacBeth, and did not authorize use of our logo in the program.
The timing of the widespread circulation of the MacBeth video interestingly coincides with the ongoing military investigation of the recent Marine massacre of two dozen civilians (including women and children) in Haditha, – what is being termed as an atrocity by one member of Congress (R). MacBeth’s false statements unfortunately have played into the hands of those who would deny that any atrocities whatsoever are occurring in Iraq. While such murders by military personnel are reprehensible, ultimate blame for these actions must be placed on the responsible commanding officers, Donald Rumsfeld, and the Bush administration who have created the context for chaos in through an illegal and unjust war and occupation which they admit has no end in sight. "
A man who tried to position himself as a leader of the
anti-war movement by claiming to have participated in war crimes while
serving in Iraq is facing federal charges of falsifying his record.
Jesse Adam Macbeth, 23, formerly of Phoenix, garnered attention on
blogs and in some alternative media after he began claiming in 2005 to
have been awarded a Purple Heart for his service, which he said
included slaughtering innocents in a Fallujah mosque. His story was
contradicted by his discharge form, showing that he was kicked out of
the Army after six weeks at Fort Benning, Ga., in 2003 because of his
''entry level performance and conduct.''
A complaint unsealed Friday in U.S. District Court in Seattle charged
him with one count of using or possessing a forged or altered military
discharge certificate, and one count of making false statements in
seeking benefits from the Veterans Administration.
