===> "Two cruise missiles struck a residential area in Baghdad on Wednesday, killing 14 people, Iraqi defense officials said in the worst reported instance of civilian deaths since the U.S. bombing campaign began a week ago" <===

This is still much less than the number of Iraqis killed and tortured, per day, by Saddam's brutal thugs.

There are still 600 missing Kuwaiti civilians, taken by Saddam's thugs, when they were chased out of Kuwait by our brave American freedom fighters.

Where are your tears for the 600 probably murdered and tortured Kuwaitis?

You do make a good collaborator for Saddam's brutal regime. He really appreciates your help. If you get your way, and America fails to liberate the Iraqi people, how many thousands would Saddam butcher the day after our soldiers leave?

It took them 2 hours, but the western media got the news:

Oh and by the way, in the footage I saw, Iraqis covering their dead and carrying the wounded did not look like they were in, or anywhere near, the mood to throw flowers and cheer when US & UK soldiers enter Bagdad...

Iraq: 14 Dead in Baghdad Missile Attack

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - Two cruise missiles struck a residential area in Baghdad on Wednesday, killing 14 people, Iraqi defense officials said in the worst reported instance of civilian deaths since the U.S....


I saw a group of Iraqis cheering the arrival of the US. They were all standing around the downed Apache cheering.
