Here is the source story for the recently killed checkpoint runners: worldnetdaily.com But nothing appears on Fox News as far as I can tell, so I wouldn't place a lot of faith in it. Clark

03:09 PM EST/11:09 PM Iraq: Checkpoint Deaths due to Iraqi Terror Fox just reported that the vehicle which ran a checkpoint, resulting in the deaths of many of women and children, was filled with hostages. The driver was ordered to speed up when approaching the checkpoint. Her family was being held hostage to her successful completion of the mission. ... All of this information is via a prominent muslim cleric from the area, Mohammed Barkir Al-Mohari, who got the information from opposition members in Njava and Karbala. You would have thought that the survivors would have mentioned that small detail to the US troops after the incident....and the US troops would have mentioned that to the press. Instead we learn it from Fox, who learned it from a cleric, who learned it from the opposition forces. I guess you can believe it if you want. jttmab
