US accused of killings

<snip>Television footage showed the bodies of five children, two men and four women in the Tikrit morgue. One infant had a gaping head wound. All the children seemed younger than school age.

"Troops were engaged by enemy fire as they approached the building," U.S. spokesman Major Tim Keefe said. "Coalition Forces returned fire utilising both air and ground assets.

"There was one enemy killed. Two women and one child were also killed in the firefight. The building ... (was) destroyed."

Keefe said the al Qaeda suspect had been captured.

Your tax dollars at work;
this was done in YOUR name, America!

How many more is it going to take?

2. We all have blood on our hands if we allow this to continue!
Those poor babies. I'm in shock... and in awe of the stupidity and evil this administration shows on a daily basis.

3. Explain to me again how the Iraqi people are better off now that
we have "liberated" them. Is it any wonder that 85% of them think it's OK to kill American soldiers? So much for winning the hearts and minds.
