Today the U.S. military targeted four "suspected" insurgents in Iraq, not even proven. They got them, guilty or not, but also killed three innocent Iraqi women and injured at least one person, a child who probably lost his or her mother. The true price of oil is the number of innocent Iraqi lives lost in pursuit of oil, plus the lost lives of the military from America and around the world who were coerced into fighting this senseless war.
US: 7 Iraqis killed in raid north of Baghdad
1 hour, 14 minutes ago
BAGHDAD - The U.S. military says seven Iraqis have been killed in a raid by American troops backed by attack aircraft targeting al-Qaida in Iraq.
A military statement says those killed Friday in the Sunni town of Adwar include four suspected insurgents and three women. It says a child has been pulled from the rubble and is being treated at a nearby U.S. base.
The military says the U.S. troops were targeting a man believed to be the leader of a bombing network in an area north of Baghdad.
It says ground forces killed the main suspect and called in an airstrike that killed three additional suspected insurgents along with three women.
Iraqi officials and neighbors say the family had no connection to the insurgency.
