"A Samarra policeman, Captain Sabti Awad, said American troops had opened fire at random in response to the ambush, killing and wounding civilians."

This is a job for Lt. Col. West.

...accusing American soldiers of spraying fire at random on the city streets, killing several civilians.

Maybe because our troops came under attack from random locations.These locals that are loyal to Saddam might think twice about hanging around when their Fedeyeen butchers show up for a fight.

As a veteran of the battle of Al Khafji, where I was assigned as an advisor to the Saudi motorized rifle brigade which re-took the city, I can say from personal experience that Arabs are masters at "spraying fire at random" and have absolutely no ammo discipline (both sides).
