Central Command also said a U.S. soldier was wounded in a firefight with "an unknown number of individuals" who attacked the forces guarding the dump and fired an "unknown incendiary device" into it, causing the explosion.

Oops, I overlooked this sentence. Still, it's just stupid to only say "exploded" in the first paragraph, and only give the cause of the explosion later. I can't help believing that the intent is to make readers think that the ordnance was blown up by coalition troops on purpose. Typical biased CNN reporting.

OK, my bad for calling you an idiot.

The only idiots right now are the former Ba'athist slime who deliberately planted these caches in civilian areas and the sneaky jihadist foreign mercenaries who are stuck in Iraq to fight for their "holy" hero Saddam and get their reward of 72 vrigins for killing US soldiers. If a few innocent Iraqi civilians purposely die in the "martrydom" process, it's no big deal to an ignorant religious fanatic who wants his orgy in paradise.
