"Only we're allowed to do things like that," Bush said, alluding to the bombing of an Afghan wedding party by American planes two weeks earlier.

rofl. too true. I remember that we also took out the Taliban's anti-aircraft guns, even though they situated them on top of civilian housing.

This strike was troubling though. There's been an increasing cat-and-mouse game in these strikes, as Israel tries to take out the Hamas leadership and Hamas leadership goes underground and surrounds itself with human shields. Israel has called off raids before to avoid civilian casualties. I don't know whether this was just bad luck or if they decided to strike despite the casualties it would cause. Time is running short before the northern front opens up, imo.
