In these images from television, a bullet riddled car in a street in Fallujah, Iraq is seen Tuesday, April 29, 2003 , after a shooting incident Monday night in which U.S. soldiers opened fire on Iraqis at a demonstration after being shot at with automatic rifles by some in the crowd, Col. Arnold Bray of the 82nd Airborne Division said Tuesday


straight from your site.
Whenever death may surprise us,
let it be welcome
if our battle cry has reached even one receptive ear
and another hand reaches out to take up our arms.


Nobody's gonna miss me, no tears will fall, no ones gonna weap, when i hit that road.
my boots are broken my brain is sore, fer keepin' up with thier little world, i got a heavy load.
gonna leave 'em all just like before, i'm big city bound, your always 17 in your hometown

What a suprise, more anti-American feelings from a Canadian.

Anyways, Reno is right. The website clearly states that the Americans were shot at. But, I must say, the pictures were horrible. If the Iraqis didn't allegedly fire at the troops, then maybe they wouldn't have been shot at. It works both ways. You try to kill some one, the other person is going to defend him or herself.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

first off i find it hard to believe that these individuals got a bed to lay down on at the hospital. isn't there only one hospital in the country right now that's operational? and if that is the case they must have filled up a long time ago. yet i see pictures of people in the hospital. i find it hard to believe that those are the same people who got shot at for protesting. either way, those people are war casualties, they are a result of the war, but i have reason to believe they are not from this one massacre.

The pictures with the Iraqi people in it are out of focus and not even centered on the people, let alone in good enough detail to find a gun. I am sure if the person took in depth photographs, there would have been a gun present. Not all Americans are cruel bastards. We don't go killing Iraqis in their homeland for fun.
