Giuliana Sgrena and US "targeting"
Here's an interesting round up of info and commentary on the killing of an Italian security officer and wounding of Italian journalist Giuliana Sgrena by U.S. forces.
The upshot seems to be : We still don't know exactly what happened or why, but the idea that she was targeted by US forces is ludicrous if for no better reason than this: If they wanted her dead, she would be dead.
Also, by her own word the car she was in was not going slowly, it was careening out of control, at least at times. Even if the 25-30mph the driver admits to is accurate, that is hardly a smart way to approach a checkpoint in a war zone full of car-bombers.
