| SEATTLE TIMES Friday, June 8, 2007 - 12:00 AM Man who lied about actions in Iraq admits faking forms By David Bowermaster Seattle Times staff reporter Jesse MacBeth stoked opposition to the Iraq war in 2006 when he spoke out about atrocities he committed as a U.S. Army Ranger serving as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. MacBeth, 23, of Tacoma, claimed to have killed more than 200 people, many at close range, some as they prayed in a mosque. He spoke at an anti-war rally in Tacoma and appeared in a 20-minute anti-war video that circulated widely on the Internet. Trouble is, none of MacBeth's claims was true. He made it through only six weeks of Army basic training, was never a Ranger and never set foot in Iraq....

Phony Soldier Charged With Making Up Claims of
Atrocities in Iraq
Sunday, May 20, 2007
SEATTLE — 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.Macbeth’s public defender, Jay Stansell, declined to comment.
