RAMADI, Iraq, Sept. 27 (Xinhuanet) -- US troops on Tuesday opened fire randomly at civilians in central Ramadi, a western city of Iraq, killing four people and wounding five others, medics said.

"We have received four bodies and five wounded people," Ayad Khalaf, an official in Ramadi Hospital, told Xinhua.

"Two roadside bombs struck a US military convoy in the city, destroying an armored vehicle and a Humvee, prompting the US soldiers to open fire randomly at civilians who happened to be at the scene," Khalaf said.

About a dozen civilian cars were damaged by the US armored vehicles when they passed by the scene after the blasts, he added.

8. When will the rest of America admit to what is going on in Iraq?

We have a failed President leading a failed policy in Iraq. How many more of our children will have to become murders or be murdered before we pull out of Iraq.
