Which bombing was this?

R.L. — 1/8/2006 1:31:34 AM (archived)

Sunday, January 9, 2005 BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- At least five people were killed when a coalition F-16 mistakenly bombed a house south of Mosul, Iraq, the U.S. military said Saturday.

U.S.-led multinational forces were searching for an insurgent cell leader and hit the house with a 500-pound bomb, the military said in a statement.

The correct target was nearby, the military said.

Or was it one of the many others that killed innocents?

Things in Ramadi are about to get interesting.

Yeah- I bet the civilians are real happy about that...
