Yup, most things we see are "propaganda", but remember people, that doesnt mean its faked, but means they are using it to their advantage.

Questioned on the "Market Attack" Coalition air power was attacking in a seperate area of the city. It's possible that this was a SAM missile falling back to earth. Further evidence for this is the size of the crater. Its too small for a bomb or cruise missile which hold between 500 - 300 pounds of expolsives cf tens of pounds for a SAM

I have often thought about this. (well before the war)

About a year back we attacked Bagdad and I saw all this AA fire comming from the roofs all I thought was What goes up must come down. I didnt know how far these rockets went but I assumed that they may not quite reach city limits.

hmmmmmm, he has said the same thing at least 5 times in the last 12 years, from his days when he was nuclear inspector etc.

I don't like to say it, but i no longer respect him.

Yup, Iraqi SAM's dropping back to earth was actually a very big thing in the 1991 Gulf War.

any word on those US soldiers executed? Someone mentioned something above.

EDIT: nevermind the post above I didnt see. Is there any other source other than Iraq itself, I really dont rate them highly
