"Brig. Gen. Ron Kitrey said the soldiers were from two separate forces operating in the area. One of the forces was hit by boobytrap explosives and a suicide bomber".

The shoe drops... it's out of the bag buddie... it was a suicide bomber... NOT an ambush... NOW we will wait for the age... netanyehu reportedly said ten years of age... what do you think.. closer to eight, thirteen, or exactly ten?

I figure between 9 and 12, myself. With no reporters in the area, it's too good an opportunity for lying opportunists to pass up. Strap the bombs on the babies! I wonder if the bomb belts the Israelis found came in size extra small? Bet they did.

NOT an ambush... I should have said NOT JUST an ambush.. me bad.

It sounded like a suicide bomber and an ambush the way I heard it reported. Soldiers had entered a building and a booby trap had gone off. As more soldiers entered the building to try to rescue their fellow soldiers that were either dead or injured, the bomber set himself off. As they ran out the sniper fired from the roof.

Now I admit, I'm going from memory from about 4 hours ago, so it may have been the suicide bomber first and then the booby trap, but it clearly was both an ambush and a suicide bomber.
