So you think the soldiers knew who she was, where she was sitting in the car, and so on? Then why didn't they finish her off after the car stopped? This is ridiculous. A car tried to run a US military roadblock in the dark and the soldiers opened fire. They obviously fired only a few rounds, or everyone in the car would have been killed instantly. I'm not one of the people here who wishes the woman journalist had been killed, but I doubt if the soldiers knew the identities of anyone in the car. The shooting was entirely the fault of the people who tried to run the roadblock.

Her boyfriend is claiming that this was a hit. He speculates that she had information that the military didn't want leaving the country.

Sgrena also needs to get her story straight. First she claims the military used a flashlight, then a spotlight, then:

in an interview with Italian La 7 TV, Sgrena said "there was no bright light, no signal, and at a certain point, from one side, a firestorm erupted." http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory?id=554726&page=2

Well, she is a communist so I suppose the truth ain't in her.
