Fox also reporting:
Arab television and The Associated Press aired video showing the bodies of small children in a truck full of bodies and people digging graves as they quoted witnesses and Iraqi officials who discussed the attack. But senior military officials in Washington said U.S. and coalition forces conducted a strike on "anti-coalition vehicles" along the Iraqi-Syrian border. According to the military, at 3 a.m. local time Wednesday coalition forces conducted an operation against a suspected foreign fighter safe house in the open desert. The house was 25 kilometers from the Syrian border, 85 kilometers southwest of Husaybah, military officials said. Coalition forces came under hostile fire and called for support from the air. After the strike, coalition forces recovered numerous weapons, foreign passports, a SATCOM radio and two million Iraqi and Syrian dinars, military officials said.

It would be the first time Arab TV & US sockpuppets believe staged events. Video from where and when, is what I would ask.

Am I the only person on earth that remembers that this SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED IN AFGANISTAN A FEW MONTHS AGO?

There were all these cries of victimizing immediately after dozens were murdered "at a wedding", and the media picked up on it and reported it as fact.

Then a week later it came out that not only was the US not guilty of murder, but it was a lie that it was a wedding, because the attack happened at 3 in the morning on a convoy.

As soon as this happened, I saw this on Fox's website-and instantly thought of this similar story, and lo and behold, it sounds like the terrorists dared to lie...again.

Stupid media.
