You are inventing BS. The Apache was firing on what it thought was enemy combatants. It did not intentionally target a Reuters news crew - that's ludicrous, unfounded and, frankly, disconnected.
I never said it intentionally fired upon a Reuters crew, never once. YOU said that, attributing it to me.
No sir, probably unlike yourself, I actually listened to the tapes. Having been in the Army, and still being a radio monitor, I understand exactly what happened. It was certainly unfortunate, and to some degree understandable.
The crew lost all benefit of the doubt with the remark to the effect "they should not bring children to a gunfight". That, as they fired on the van full of good samaritans who were there only to render aid to the wounded from the first burst.
You would be amazed at what you might discover when doing your own research instead of just repeating government talking points.
