<Pentagon officials took issue with Iraqi's treatment of captured U.S. forces, saying the airing of taped interviews with some of them was a violation of the Geneva Conventions. By contrast, Clarke said about 50 Iraqis, soldiers and civilians, were aboard U.S. naval vessels receiving medical care and treatment. > I hope the USA isn't asking the prisoners they've taken anything other than name, rank and serial number. I wonder why they don't just hold them ashore in a POW camp. Cheaper that way. Ooops, a bus full of civilians? But the Coalition of the Willing was bombing a bridge and got the bus by mistake. Hang on, that means they were trying to blow up a bridge?!! But they say with pride how they have managed to stop the Iraqis blowing up bridges and stuff and how the Coalition has rescued civilian infrastructure from the evil Saddam regime. So, how come they are blowing up buses by mistake, instead of a bridge, which they were trying to save from the Iraqi army? Does not compute. Meanwhile, they killed a busload of civilians. That won't win hearts and minds. My mind is confused and if it was my children on the bus, they'd lose a bit of my heart too. Mqurice
