"I'm speculating here, but it's certain that the US military was aware of some form of Russian assistance to the Iraqis prior to and during the war, and it's possible that Coalition Special Forces may have actually taken intentional military action against the Russians in an attempt to disable portions of a "diplomatic" convoy that moved towards the Syrian border. If the attack was purposeful, it may have taken place under the assumption that the Russians were transporting weapons, WMD components and/or other evidence that detailed any illegal pre-war relationship between Russia and Iraq."

Remember we all thought they were carrying away the Mukhabarat files? Well, maybe they were carrying something away after all...
