US marines pressing an offensive in this Iraqi town west of Baghdad bombed a mosque in the center of the town Wednesday and killed up to 40 insurgents inside, a marine officer said.
The attack came from a jet aircraft at a high angle to minimize the impact, the officer said.
"We wanted to kill the people inside," said Lieutenant Colonel Brennan Byrne.

As far as I am concerned all so-called "mosques" are targets if people with AK47s and RPGs are hiding in them and using them as so-called protection. If you are there, you die there, that simple. The leftist in this country certainly would bomb a baptist church to kill a bunch of red necked conservatives that voted republican!

Are really dirty/20 kton nuke from an UMV crawling out of the Red Sea? Green glass and real terrorism courtesy of the US of A? Leaflets in Arabic taking the claim? What would be their reaction then? A thought to entertain anyway....
