And how would the culprit know they were leadership? Don't the troops go without rank insignia when in battle so as to avoid the leaders being captured? My dh could tell me but he's not available right now.

Sgts. don't run around with a trail of aides and bodyguards behind them.

Tony Snow on FNC says they just confirmed this story and will be back with a report when they have live audio on it.

Tony doesn't have the details. Maybe he should logon to FR. Then he could finally report this incident.

One of the bad aspects about advertising so broadly and so constantly that we are attempting to avoid civilian casualties (and that our societies get so upset about civilian casualties) is that we open ourselves to assymetrical or guerrilla warfare conducted by those who pass as civilian -- I thought this the other day when Diogenesis posted a photo of Iraqi prisoners being taken who had civilian clothes on over their uniforms.

We are inviting these tactics, and that won't be lost on our enemies.

now, from baer at the pentagon: at least 10 people wounded. he's quoting sly news; pentagon won't say anything until it goes up the chain of command.

saying grenades and small arms fire; obviously vamping. too bad. if they don't know, they shouldn't guess.

We should take lessons from the Israelis. They deal with this everyday.
