phantom dead

there were nine women and one child who were being buried. the iraqis said they died when a bus was bombed (NOT by the us i want to add). HOWEVER, the us military said NO ONE WAS KILLED ON THE BUS. sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, the actual casualty figures of iraqi citizens are being altered by the military. NO WONDER THE SURGE IS WORKING!

perhaps they can use the logic in the us cities with the highest murder (and other crimes) rates? sounds like a plan to me!

BAGHDAD, March 12 (Reuters) - It was an incident that aptly summed up the fog of war in Iraq -- relatives burying nine women and a child they said were victims of a bomb attack on a bus in which the U.S. military said no one died.
In Iraq, acts of violence are almost always accompanied by multiple accounts from witnesses, police, health officials and U.S. forces. But even by Iraqi standards Tuesday's attack on a bus full of mourners was a puzzle.
The U.S. military said in a statement on Wednesday the bus was hit by an explosively formed penetrator, a particularly deadly type of roadside bomb normally used against U.S. armoured vehicles. A nearby U.S. convoy was also caught in the blast.
"Operational reports confirm one U.S. soldier and one civilian were wounded in the convoy," the military said in a statement that came after a day of conflicting casualty reports.,,..........
