U.S. forces opened fire at a car near the rebel-held city of Fallujah killing two young Iraqi girls according to an Iraqi who helped rescue four people wounded in the attack on Friday.

Villager Mahmoud Mohammed said the mother of the two children and the driver of the car, both wounded in the attack, described the incident to him, saying that a U.S. tank had fired at the car in Naamiya, six miles southeast of Fallujah.

Two other Iraqi children in the car were injured.

Hospital officials in Fallujah confirmed the casualties.

The U.S. military didn’t comment immediately on the attack.

Right, we get to live with the consequences of our actions.  Have you tried travelling internationally lately?

In war, innocent people die.  That newsflash is probably pre-Sumarian.  When you cite one side and not the other you are being biased.

that doesn't make it right and seems like a vaild argument against war.

Is it a valid argument against World War II, the Civil War, or the American Revolution?

For some reason I am having a very difficult time equating the Iraq War with our American Revolutionary war for independence.
