US army kills two Iraqi sisters in Baquba
http://english.aljazeera.net/NR/exeres/F9EAD9BE-BC2D-47B3-9C24-4276D6C99B4B.htm

I have two opinions about this article: first, the US explanation may or may not be true, but the fact that they are shooting down teenagers is not good. I happen to think they were killed unjustly given the recent past of trigger-happy, scared soldiers.

second, pro-US marches in Baghdad tend to revive images in my mind of CIA sponsored marches/riots in Tehran back during Mossadeq's time. The Bush administration is totally unworthy of accepting anything of news value on its face. I trust them about as far as I could throw them.
