"and that the Italians had advised the Americans they were carrying diplomatic personnel." If true, that would be compelling evidence on the Italian side that the US screwed up big time. I don't buy the argument that US forces were gunning for her, though.

"The driver of the car has insisted that the Toyota had been driving slowly (no more than 40km/h), and had received no warning from the American soldiers, and that the Italians had advised the Americans they were carrying diplomatic personnel." Yes that is what the Italians are claiming. The Americans are claiming the opposite, that the vehicle was traveling fast, that it didn't stop when signaled, or even after warnings shots, and that there had been no prior communication about the car.
