The Boston Massacre happened when British soldiers in the Massachusetts Bay Colony in Boston opened fire on a group of American colonists. This resulted in the death of 5 of the American colonists. The soldiers were there to stop demonstrations against the Townshend Acts and keep order, but they failed and instead, ended up making people mad.
Technically, I don't think the soldiers are guilty of murder. This is because the definition of murder is: '<span>the unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another.' War is lawful so... no I don't think they are guilty of murder. I am not 100% sure about whether or not they are guilty though.</span>

Explanation:
Islam is the 2nd largest religion in the world, with 1.6 billion people declaring their faith in Muhammad and Allah. The largest religion? Christianity. With today's birth rates and conversions to the religion, Islam is the fastest-growing religion in world.
Causes: According to Muslim sources, the Muslim soldiers attacked the native Jews who had barricaded themselves in forts. Muslim sources accuse Jews living in Khaybar of a plan to unite with other Jews from Banu Wadi Qurra, Taima', Fadak as well as Ghatafan Arab tribe to attack Madinah.
Events: The Muslims set out for Khaybar in March 628, Muharram AH 7. According to different sources, the strength of the Muslim army varied from 1,400 to 1,800 men and between 100 and 200 horses. Some Muslim women (including Umm Salama) also joined the army, in order to take care of the wounded. Compared to the Khaybarian fighting strength of 10,000, the Muslim contingent was small, but this provided an advantage, allowing them to swiftly and quietly march to Khaybar (in only three days), catching the city by surprise. It also made Khaybar overconfident. As a result, the Jews failed to mount a centrally organized defense, leaving each family to defend its own fortified redoubt. This underestimation of the Muslims allowed Muhammad to conquer each fortress one by one with relative ease, claiming food, weapons, and land as he went. Just a small summary, I would be here for hours writing about the whole thing:)
