Five killed in suicide attack
2005-04-14
A second suicide car bomber struck near a US military convoy in Mosul, wounding at least four Iraqis yesterday, within hours of an attack that killed five Iraqis and hurt three, police said. There was no immediate report by the US military on the attacks, which occurred before US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld's visit to the city. The latest attack occurred at about 4pm in the old Al Sinaai neighbourhood on the western side of the city when the suicide bomber detonated his charge near a US military patrol. A local hospital said it received four wounded from the attack and that one was in critical condition. Earlier five Iraqis were killed and three wounded in a similar suicide car bomb attack against a US military convoy.

#1  Notice that there is no mention that the Iraquis were civilians. Since the MSM usually mentions when injured/killed Iraquis are civilians when it comes to US military action, OR if they are part of the Iraqui security services, it is obvious that these were indeed civilians.

CAN'T MENTION THAT! No Siree! No need to remind anyone that the insurgents are violating the Geneva Conventions! It doesn't apply to them, because they didn't sign it, even though the latest annex DOES apply to nations that didn't sign IT.

Pharisaical hypocrites.
