OK
The suicide bomber was Iraq's fault. I have no doubt in my mind about that.
You happy?
The story about the truck, we may never know. I have an idea, though. I've been in a minivan with a bunch of screaming kids. I can attest that I would, on occasion, have had trouble hearing Gabriel blow his trumpet under those conditions, and I was not myself terrified by explosions, rifle fire, etc.
What would be tragically ironic is if it turns out that they were fleeing to American lines -- just as all the Administration spokespeople have been saying -- with the hope of safety, only to misread the signals because of their own distracted panic and be killed accidentally by the very people they hoped would save them.
Any money on that one?
