#3 Nine kiddies were killed when ground troops came under fire and called in air support.

Did they get the terrorists cowering behind them?

#4 I think so:

The air force scrambled into action after being tipped about a group of gunmen poising to assault a residence in the western sector of the capital. The aircraft radars detected the armed elements as they were assembling at a location close to the target. Back-up aircraft opened fire on the gunmen, instantly killing 10 of them. Shortly later, American ground forces arrived at the scene and radioed to the overflying air force about location of three gunmen trying to hide. The trio were also killed immediately after they were shot upon.

The wimminz and kiddies were in the house where the final three gunnies holed up.

#6 The AP is practically ululating.

saw that yesterday..
and the Hate America Harpies Started Another Round of Condemnation... Wot a Surprise..

We Repeat: da simple math.. USA/Coalition are Saving Iraqi Men, Women and Children by the thousands every month..

Because we are rolling up the Gross Murderers, the Terrorists that use multiple VIBEDs in food markets, hotels, government buildings and religious gatherings.

Suicide Vests in lines, weddings and funerals etc.

And shoot em up drive bys and kidnappings.

#7 ..Because the strategy is paying off in Iraq look for AP, MSM, and other anti-USA organs overseas to pour it on.

Wouldn't be surprised to see another breathless Abu Ghraib Series by WAPO or the NYSlimes... LOL!
