i am sorry ALL of the deaths happened. they shouldn't have. it's NOT making us safer (how is it if you disagree with me?). it's NOT because of 9/11 (you know MOST people believe it IS because of 9/11. however, iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11. ask our good buds saudi arabia who was responsible). it had NOTHING to do with al qaeda because al qaeda WASN'T in iraq until AFTER we 'liberated' it.
U.S. Journalist Photographs Grisly Aftermath of Attack in Iraq, Gets Booted by Military
By Dahr Jamail, IPS News.
U.S. journalist Zoriah Miller says he was censored by the U.S. military in the Iraqi city of Fallujah after photographing Marines who died in a suicide bombing.
On Jun. 26, a suicide bomber attacked a city council meeting in Fallujah, 69 kms west of Baghdad, between local tribal sheikhs and military officials.
Three Marines, Cpl. Marcus Preudhomme, Capt. Philip Dykeman, and Lt. Col. Max Galeai, assigned to 2d Battalion, 3rd Marine Division based in Kaneohe Bay, Hawaii, died in the attack.
The explosion also killed two interpreters and 20 Iraqis, including the mayor of the nearby town of Karmah, two prominent sheikhs and their sons, and another sheikh and his brother. All were members of the local "awakening council," one of the U.S.-backed militias that have taken up arms against al Qaeda in Iraq, according to U.S. and Iraqi authorities.
Miller was embedded with Marines on a patrol one block from the attack when it occurred. He had originally turned down the option of going to report on the city council meeting that was bombed...............
