We need to know if we were launching weapons at this time.
These ragheads are getting too much media milage from "market attacks", which they are probably doing themselves.

[denydenydeny]

The first one worked so well, they are trying it again.

[ladtx]

Killed more and probably made the crater bigger this time.

[CHICAGOFARMER]

Have anybody figured out this stupid lie??

The missile so claimed by the IRAQI mouthpiece always hits the local food market. The local food market makes up less than .005% of the total land mass in and residential area.

Pass the word.

I smell BS. I just saw a couple of the 'victims' in the hospital. Some observations:

1) They were both young men of military age
2) Neither had any visible wounds, scratches, contusions, etc.
3) Their eyes looked like they were dissembling
4) They both stopped screaming in pain long enough to smirk at the camera.

in air raid on market in Shula neighborhood of Baghdad

Is that the neighborhood by Don Shula's Steakhouse?

We need to know if we were launching weapons at this time.

What difference will it make? People will believe what they want to. Case A: We f'd up and we're sorry. Case B: Either the claim is completely fabricated, or its an Iraqi friendly fire incident.

Regardless of which is really true, the Al-Jazeera/Reuters/Peter Jennings axis will blame the US.

[Tatze]

Let me guess.. a Shiia neighborhood?? More Iraqi lies. It was an Iraqi missle or car bomb. Bomb the muslim shiia and blame the US. A two-fer for Saddam.

LOL!

[Hillarys Gate Cult]

I hate to state the obvious, but i'm sure our intelligence agencies know exactly what happened there and have pictures, but can't give it out without compromising how we got it. That's part of Saddam's plan.

TAlso, the alleged stray missle hit the Ba'ath party headquarters at which people were known to be working. Of course there were casualties. And a good example of how not all civilians are innocent sheeple.

I noticed exactly the same thing. In fact the one kid, quits "crying out in pain" and then realizes the camera is still on him, and starts yelling again.

[ameribbean expat]

not only that but...
51 (killed) + 49 (wounded) = a very nice round number. These guys are pathetic. The longer all-Queersherea stays on, the longer the Arab world looks like a parody of itself.
