Remember this guy?

He was celebrated by the left and promoted by the media because he accused the military of atrocious crimes in Iraq. He even said he participated in them. One problem, he made it all up.

He's been arrested...
‘Abusive veteran’ charged with falsifying record
Man who never served in Iraq told anti-war groups he committed atrocities

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.”
