Communist newspaper reporter Giuliana Sgrena is back in Italy and she is giving her version of the events that led to the shooting death of Italian intelligence officer Nicola Calipari. Calipari was riding in a car with the reporter after she was released from the Islamofascists that had held her captive when they were fired upon by American soldiers at a Military checkpoint in Iraq.
The U.S. Military states that the car was speeding toward the checkpoint and ignored warning shots and other various signals for the car to stop as it approached. The U.S. Military released this statement, "Soldiers shot into the engine block after trying to warn the driver to stop by "by hand-and-arm signals, flashing white lights, and firing warning shots in front of the car."
But Giuliana Sgrena is telling a different story.
The communist newspaper reporter for Il Manifesto says she refuses to rule out that the shooting was deliberate. "The fact that the Americans don't want negotiations to free the hostages is known," Sgrena told Sky Italia TV. So I don't see why I should rule out that I could have been the target."
She offers no proof.

The commie b*tch is lying.
Hardly he said, she said. Sounds like the MSM is just realizing it bought another pig in a poke...
LOL!!! They never learn.
That's not really a picture of the car, is it?
Communications Minister Maurizio Gasparri urged Sgrena to be more careful about what she said.
"I understand the emotion of these hours, but those who have been under stress in the past few weeks should pull themselves together and avoid saying nonsense," ANSA quoted Gasparri as saying.
Ummmm.....The bullets all went throw the same hole.
It's a Robin Hood thing.
Since she's a communist I see no reason to believe anything she says...
Because if you were the target, you would be dead.
SO9
Okay...windshield not destroyed, no bullet holes there, headlights mostly intact...lets count...

She claims the car wasn't going very fast, but let's be realistic here. If I'd just been released from being held by terrorists, I'd be speeding my ass as fast as I could, to get the hell out of the country.
Too late...
By the way...can anyone find a real picture of the car???
300-400 rounds would have turned her into hamburger. The mere fact that she is alive shows that she is lieing.
And we are surprised by this because...? *Scratches Head*
Well, the commie trash IS a much better target than a military intelligence officer. Thus, the refutation of her claim is that it would require an abominable marksmanship, too substandard even to be considered.
Did they accidentally hit a camel as they were speeding toward that last checkpoint? LOL!
"Ah got better"
