one of them pregnant. :cry:

"I investigated this incident myself, and both of these women were shot from behind," said the investigator. "Nabiha's brains were splattered on her brother who was driving the car, since she was in the back seat."

The U.S. military said soldiers fired on the car after it entered a "clearly marked prohibited area near an observation post" after failing to stop despite "repeated visual and auditory warnings." The U.S. military said in a statement that "shots were fired to disable the vehicle."

The brother of the pregnant woman, Redam Nisaif Jassim, who was driving the car, told IPS that he neither saw nor heard any warnings by the U.S. military. Two men who witnessed the incident from a nearby home also said they saw no signs of any warning.

"These kinds of killings by the Americans happen daily in Iraq," said Jassim, "They gave no warning to us before killing my cousin and sister. Of course we know they have no respect for the lives of Iraqis."

1. As my devout Catholic Republican parents would say. So what

They never miss mass either. But they wonder why I don't attend mass with them any more.

They thought Vietnam was a great idea too.

They would have been damn proud to have seem me have get drafted to go off and die like a dog in a rice patty for their hero Richard Nixon. They claim Nixon got a bad deal to this day.
