Not quite admiting to it

Post #91,972 by JayMehaffey 3/26/03 7:38:02 PM Reply	Not quite admiting to it [link\|http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A32299-2003Mar26.html\|Washington Post] The Pentagon acknowledged striking targets in a residential Baghdad neighborhood that may have caused civilian damage or deaths Wednesday and blamed Iraqi forces for placing military equipment there. U.S.-led air strikes targeted nine surface-to-surface missiles and launchers in Baghdad at about 3 a.m. EST, said a statement from the U.S. Central Command. It was unclear whether they were in the same area the Iraqis were talking about. We still are not quite admiting to it. But it's pretty obvious that it was us. Of course, if it's true that Iraq had anti-air missle launchers hidden in the area, then it's more Saddam's fault then ours. And given the tactics that Saddam is using, I see no reason to doubt that we at least thought there where launchers there. Jay

Hence, without regard to whether it was an AA missle detonating on the ground or one of our own "smart" bombs that missed its intended target, IT IS OUR FAULT. Let's not take our eye off the ball, shall we? bcnu, Mikem Osama bin Laden's brother could fly in US airspace 9/15/01, but I had to wait for FBI and CIA background checks, 'nuff said?
