Insurgents kill two U.S. troops in western Iraq

Baghdad - Insurgents have killed two U.S. soldiers in two separate incidents in the west of Iraq, Iraqi and U.S. security sources reported Tuesday.

In Fallujah, an insurgent sniper shot dead a U.S. soldier in a patrol in the centre of the city late Monday, policeman Mohammed Ahmed said.

Ahmed said that U.S. troops retaliated but accidentally injured a civilian in the vicinity of the shooting and arrested six others at the site.
U.S. military sources said they had no information on the incident.

Meanwhile, the U.S. military said a U.S. soldier was killed in action when his vehicle was attacked with a homemade bomb while conducting combat operations in the vicinity of Habbaniyah on Monday.

1. The Fallujah incident is new
The Habbaniyah incident has already been added, and refers to a Marine, not a soldier.

2. According to the article the Fallujah incident hasn't been confirmed
by the DOD, so I guess we'll wait and see?

5. Stay And Die.
The Stay And Die party controls leadership positions in both the Democratic and Republican Party organizations. They are callous killers who want to send our children to die so that their corporations can get rich. We need to root them out of all positions of power and make the corporations subservient to the people of this Republic. We need a second American Revolution.
