U.S attack destroys Hospital in Falluja

Apparently a hospital and many structures in the city have been destroyed in the preperation for a massive attack, which im sure you have heard of.

US troops using 155mm howitzers pounded a number of pre-planned targets in Falluja on Saturday.

now someone please inlighten me as to why it would be neccesary to destroy a hospital along with an unknown number of inhabitants in order to prepare for an assalt. The structures around this hospital that were damage, if not destroyed, includes houses and a medical supply storeroom.

dont we have those smart bombs that are suppose to be able to target an aproximate location and use gps to navigate. if so them why is this happening.

Dont you know hospitals are the first place terrorists hide?
Just ask the comander in chief
Seriously, the city is supposed to be empty of civilians- you think?
Are they lying to me again in the news?
I hate being lied to.

i guess it wasnt empty considering the witnesses but alot have left more leaving .
find it curious that the hospital did happen to be run by 'Saudi Arabian Islamic charity'

im still wondering wtf happened if it is that they didnt plan to take this hospital down (not so smart bombs?)
