<A war-torn region is easy pickin's for slave traffickers, and their opening fire on military aircraft while passing a village that was celebrating a wedding may not be all that far-fetched for a bunch of paranoid international criminals -- and may take some time to investigate. It's like troubleshooting a system with more than one problem. It takes time.

The most reasonable thing I've seen written on this subject in a while.

The point I was making is that if some of the victims were tied up (and I have seen no other source on this), there is a lot more to this story than the Left's assertion that we went and bombed an innocent, exuberant wedding where some guests were only shooting randomly into the air.

If someone was actually shooting at the planes trying to hit them, we have a different situation, don't we?
