Sure, I believe the "journalists" didn't know what was going to happen. They just might be that stupid. Odds are against it, though. Anyone that stupid would be too dumb to breathe. Too bad the Iraqi police didn't detain them and interrogate them about the terrorists. The "journalists" obviously know who did the attack. Why should "journalists" be exempt from the law?

Here are some close up photos of the damaged plane. It's interesting that the missile hit pretty far outboard of the wing instead of homing in on the engines like most heat seekers do. The crew did a hell of a job getting the plane down safely, but of course, they were highly motivated (and skilled).
