Great...! They're dying left and right and then we kill them while they're mourning...!

this is inexcusable...
A U.S. helicopter fired on a funeral party in Baghdad, one of dozens taking place after Thursday's devastating bombings in Sadr City, in response to ritual shooting, the Iraqi Interior Ministry said.

A ministry official said two people were wounded in Friday's air strike, which came after mourners fired into the air.

we've only occupied the country since march 2003 and we still can't seem to figure out what the local customs are, so, instead of taking a moment to radio in and find out what the hell is REALLY going on, we start indiscriminate firing into a crowd... we so desperately need to get out of there...
