although i can certainly agree with the decision to shoot im guessing it may not have been a vbied since there doesnt appear to have been a secondary explosion. i could be wrong.
Yes, and why would they wait until the truck was parked in front of a building, instead of engaging it on "Route Jennifer" before it got to "the canal" or "the tanks"? Also looks like the truck had time to back in through a gate. Maybe the bombers live there or maybe it's just some guys who own a truck.
