The two civilians killed in the American air attack on Sadr City were two civilian Red Crescent workers. Six other civilians were wounded.

    And this is what our President refers to as a surgical strikes/bombing? The killing of aid workers? (Despite, that these workers are a “threat” (doing something humane)to our “soldiers” (convicted felons (rapists, convicted thieves, child molesters, since no citizen with 1`/2 a brain would be stupid enough to join our armed services given where they’ll be shipped to. http://consortiumnews.com/2008/050208a.html )to the “progress” (killing of civilians to subjugate the people of Iraq to Bush’s not America’s ideals, and (lack of) principles.) If these were U.N. Peace Keepers, or any other humanitarian effort workers other than actual Iraqi’s the rest of the world would be questioning much more loudly just what in the holy fuck is going on.
