notice how headlines leave out this small detail!

Reuters cameraman Mazen Dana, 43, a Palestinian who has worked for
Reuters for a
decade, was filming outside Abu Ghraib prison when he was shot,
witnesses said.

Reuters soundman Nael al-Shyoukhi, who was working with Dana at the
time, said Dana
was shot by a U.S. soldier on a tank.

"I cried at the soldier, telling him you killed a journalist. They
shouted at me and asked
me to step back and I said 'I will step back but please help, please
help and stop the
bleed'," Shyoukhi said. The soldiers tried to help but Dana died.

The U.S. military acknowledged on Sunday that its troops had "engaged" a
Reuters
cameraman, saying they had thought his camera was a rocket propelled
grenade launcher.

"Army soldiers engaged an individual they thought was aiming an RPG at
them. It turned
out to be a Reuters cameraman," Navy Captain Frank Thorp, a spokesman
for the
chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told Reuters in Washington.

How can the Iraqi's be expected to trust the US soldiers when American don't
trust this US administration. We should have exited by now. I guess they
have their eyes set on the surrounding countries. However, I don't feel safer in
NYC knowing that we are stirring up more and more antipathy. Iraqi's didn't
even believe that we had a blackout of the entire US northeast.

We live in interesting times.

I suspect that eye care isn't part of their health care package?

the main one that he was shot by US troops. it was interesting to see what others pulled out of it. Soon afterwards
this 'detail' came out but not at the beginning. On the other hand, the pohotographer was Palestinian which might
make his a target in the same way that Al Jazeera HQ was hit "accidently" and twice not once
