Time to start shooting first and looking for identity second.

Didn't Sniperboy's "father" have a grenade incident in Kuwait too?

Kudos to those on the other thread who called this one.

[FryingPan101]

Hiding, wounded, American soldier being questioned held and questioned. Fragging?

Wow. Can you say "court martial followed by a damn fine hanging?"

[F-117A]

I'm sure this scum is happy!

Works for me. Interesting how good the Radio coverage was of this event about half an hour ago. TV coverage looks completely stifled and changing the subject. Radio coverage (FOX? & CBS?) had the perp a US Sargeant who was caught hiding, holding injured hands. Asked by those who found him "did you hurt your hands when you threw the grenades" he reportedly said "yes". Nothing like this on TV that I've seen so far.

Aparently I'm late to this topic- my first thought (I go all the way back to the late unpleasantness in SouthEast Asia) was "Fragging". I would have started looking for low-IQ, low-performing soldiers who possibly had charges pending against them, or had recently been disciplined.

Now that's pretty sharp!

Fragging?

Probably not, it the report is right about the two Kuwaitis. Fragging, in the classical sense, is usually done to eliminate unpopular officers by a single soldier (possibly with the support of other men in the unit). Usually the acute symptom of serious morale problems. This sounds more like an enemy attack with an American collaborator.

Again, if the report is correct and if the Kuwaitis and the Soldier are all involved.

At Al Yarmouk Hospital, one of the critically injured was Amal Hassan Kamel. She was in the hospital with her 8-year old son Wa'ad Hashim, who was injured in both legs by shrapnel.

"The Americans have no conscience," Kamel said. "What have our children done to deserve this?"

I'm sorry, but if I had a 48hr. warning that there was a even a remote chance my town would be bombed (and for these people it was hardly remote), I'd get my kids the HELL out of there!!!!! What is wrong with these people!!!

[dennisw]

Good call!!!

[MonroeDNA]

Thanks!

Only one taker, though.

[CatoRenasci]

The people holding this sign should be identified, and if the Muslim solider is indeed guilty, they should be charged with conspiracy to commit treason, tried, convicted and executed.

}should be charged with conspiracy to commit treason, tried, convicted and executed.

In any order.

First I've heard that none of the injuries are life threatening just came from Dana Lewis, the CNBC imbedded reporter on the scene with the 101st. I'm so relieved!

As for the disgusting human being who would throw gernades on his fellow soldiers, I hope his court martial is swift, his punishment, death.
