That might explain why they waited so long....but why release the info as part of a staged propaganda opportunity?
Why not just tell the media? The Army (if they believe what they did was a crime)? Their congressmen?
Do we have ANY independent corroboration that these asshats were even there? I recall the media falling all over themselves during Desert Storm about some AF Sergeant claiming that she and hundreds if not thousands of other female military had been repeatedly raped in the sand box....and it turned out she had never been raped, and never even deployed overseas. The media was strangely quiet on that. Just like John Kerry claiming to have committed war crimes - in places he never was.
As far as innocents (if there were any there, except the kids) being killed, WAR SUCKS. Which is a damned good reason to avoid it. If you can't avoid it, you should be pretty good at it.
