#1 The attacks were carried out overnight Monday into Tuesday morning.

When they are parked and not occupied.

#2 When GHWB sent the men into the mid-east to push back Hussein, we got almost hourly video from CNN on the air attacks including things like the bridge being blown just after a vehicle passes by.

Where are the pictures now?

We were always at war with Eastasia.

BTW, you notice all the anti-war demonstrations starting up? And the constant evening ~~propaganda~~ news coverage of them? It wasn't just political theater was it? /sarc off

#6 There's gotta be some kind of joke in there about bombing our own MRAPs and Humvees. Oh well, I guess it's better than them ending up over here with a new paint job and a local PD decal on the side. As the great one said, "Weapons of war do not belong on our streets." Right guys?

Also better than IS using them as VBIEDs around Baghdad (which already has occurred.)
