MSNBC showed an Iraqi boy killed by US airstrike |
|
Near the start of "Countdown with Keith Olbermann," they showed people killed by the US airstrike which killed at least 40.
Then they showed US General Kimmit saying they had "sattellite equipment" and "passports" and "weapons," so they must be insurgents or the relatives of insurgents.
According to Kimmit, if the military thinks there is an enemy soldier inside a house, it's ok to bomb the house and kill everyone inside.

1. Yep. Dead children, another lie by the military |
|
I just wish Olberman had done a currency conversion on the 2 million Iraqi dinar. That's worth less than $2,000 U.S. Among 45 people, that ain't a horde of munitions money.
Oh, and those "satellite communications devices?" Satellite phones. The only way you can talk in IraqNam with the bombed out phone systems.

2. So now it's okay to kill 'relatives' of enemies of the Bush* government? |
|
- What about distant relatives? Friends? People walking by? Children playing?
- The Bush* fascists should be honest: they'll kill anyone they damn well please.

5. A "suspected safe house", so... |

I guess the US has instituted the death penalty for being a suspect.
