NTV: Peter Arnett reporting that about 6 miles from downtown, 3 homes in a residential area were destroyed (American bombs) and the families/residents buried in rubble. [Implied that the residential area was targeted and that this is one of MANY similar instances where civilians have been injured/killed--because of American bombs.]

Arnett says he doesn't know, but "all those bombs must be targeting something." [well, duh!]

Min of Info--- he was defiant this morning.

Local camera men have "taken off" so is hard to get a crew for video--and the ministry restricts coverage.

It is really too bad in America. [have no idea what that was about---am getting his responses, but not questions being asked him---getting 1 side of a 2-sided conversation.]

While we were getting exciting feed of great fireworks a few minutes ago (still ongoing) on either FOX or PMSNBC, CNN's Wolf Blixer was busy with an endless bit about the Russian ambassadorial convoy being shot up by those reckless American troops.

Do we know this is Arnett? I'm just getting the audio but no people in the usual Baghcam view. This guy says he's been back and forth across the river. More than I can say for Mr. Chicken who was primping for his report on cam during the night. He whined that it was too dangerous "over there", so I don't guess he leaves the hotel.

I thought all of the civilians left. Except for a handful of them. RG and Fedayeen living in someone else's home does not count for civilians. Mediots.
