SO your point is that both cars had insurgents in them and that is why they shot and killed them, because normal people don't drive through their own neighborhood?

Discrediting the source doesn't help in this situation, you have to prove the story is fake. I don't trust FOX news, but that doesn't mean I will refuse to accept every report they make I just don't swallow propaganda.

Oozy,
You do realize that most Americans aren't like the propaganda paints us, right?
We're just people who work, live, love, raise our kids, and try to exist as peacefully as possible.
I'm American and I try hard to stop blind hatred whenever I see it in my own country.
Yes, soldiers do horrible things. On both sides. War is ugly like that. But please understand that I am no more the killer of innocent civilians than you are a suicide bomber. It's propaganda both ways.

The United Nations secretary general, Kofi Annan, declared explicitly for the first time last night that the US-led war on Iraq was illegal.
When pressed on whether he viewed the invasion of Iraq as illegal, he said: "Yes, if you wish. I have indicated it was not in conformity with the UN charter from our point of view, from the charter point of view, it was illegal."

Iraq was invaded. Saddam is gone and we are pulling out.
edit on 29-9-2010 by SLAYER69 because: (no reason given)
Iraq has between 25 and 50 percent unemployment, a dysfunctional parliament, rampant disease, an epidemic of mental illness, and sprawling slums. The killing of innocent people has become part of daily life.
Five years of occupation have destroyed Iraq as a country. Baghdad is today a collection of hostile Sunni and Shiite ghettoes divided by high concrete walls. Different districts even have different national flags. Sunni areas use the old Iraqi flag with the three stars of the Baath party, and the Shiite wave a newer version, adopted by the Shiite-Kurdish government. The Kurds have their own flag.
Iraqi bishop says U.S. betrayed country, Christians suffer most Do you consider the war in Iraq a failure? After toppling the regime of Saddam Hussein, the United States never achieved what they promised to the world. Now there’s only rubble. We’ve become targets, we’re afraid to even leave the house. The situation is worse for everyone, but especially for us Christians. The withdrawal of the United States is a disastrous flight from responsibility, which will multiply the atrocities and increase the instability even more.
