U.S. forces behind deadly children bomb: Iraqi experts

Friends,

You may recall our posting of 25 May: " Suicide bombers? No - 
U.S. planted explosives". In the report below, which appears
to be credible, we find another smoking gun: the U.S. staging
a savage terrorist incident in Iraq, and then exploiting it in the
media to show how terrible the "insurgents" are, and explaining
why we must "stay the course."

U.S. forces behind deadly children bomb: Iraqi experts

7/18/2005 11:00:00 PM  GMT

Iraqi experts are saying that the recent car bomb that killed
some 18 children was not the work of the anti-occupation
fighters but of the U.S. occupation troops.

A traffic lieutenant who asked not to be identified said to a
media source that U.S. solders crazily raced out of the street
less than a minute before the explosion and that after the
blast they did not return to the bomb scene but continued to
hurry out of the area.

Furthermore, a captain in the fire department said the
explosion was extremely powerful and left a big crater in the
earth - something that other car bombs do not do. The captain
stated that this was because the bombs used by the Iraqi
resistance are made from Russian-made TNT that was in the
possession of the Army of the Republic of Iraq before the U.S.
occupation.

According to the captain former soldiers are very familiar
with the effects of such explosives, and know that during an
explosion it blows upwards, not downwards, and for this reason
U.S. forces prohibit the taking of photographs from the scenes
of attacks where the effects of explosions are obvious.

When the fire captain was asked to clarify his remarks and
whether he was accusing the Americans of setting the blast, he
replied, "The Traffic Stop Director for the area, Ahmad Kamal
was fired because of his statement one hour after the
explosion in which he said the U.S. forces were behind the
blast. This was regarded as an 'irresponsible statement' by
him and attributed to the fact that he had lost control of
himself and had a breakdown after the bombing and to the fact
that he is a Sunni and does not want to believe that what is
happening in Iraq is 'terrorism'."
