The American military launched some 50 air strikes designed to kill specific targets during the Iraq war, it emerged yesterday, but none of them found its mark.

Instead the air strikes had a high civilian toll, according to military officials serving at the time.

Murder on a grand scale, many knew of this whilst it was happening or feared this at least. Still many others scoffed at the idea of murder in their names and were jubilant while this was going on.

Supporters of war rejoice in your army’s handy work.

They keep saying they use and used 'guided weapons' to minimise the civilian death toll but still over 50,000 people are dead so far.

More crap.

Please either cite a reputable source, or edit this out.

We must now be approaching a point where the INSURGENTS have killed more of their own people than the US did.

everything not in line with right wing amerikkans views are called crap or conspiracies.

Next thing they will claim that no civillians got killed like there usual propoganda line.

Or how about only bad people die at a wedding masscre committed by the disgraced US military!

Self denial a virus affecting the right wing brigade it seems!

3 Million Vietnamese people were killed and they weren't killed by other Vietnamese. Even a new born baby knows that.
