An Associated Press reporter in Fallujah (search) saw cars ferrying bodies from the mosque. Witnesses said 40 people had been killed when three missiles destroyed part of a wall surrounding a mosque compound filled with worshippers. But U.S. military officials told Fox News they did not believe the AP's reported death toll.


Now tell me, are Iraqis really going to a mosque to pray in the middle of a battle. Me thinks that whoever died in there were guerillas using the mosque as cover.

My bet is they are using it for cover.

I'd destroy any mosque whose imam was stirring the pot even if no active combatants were inside.  Of course, I'd give 24 hours warning so that people who are actually innocent could stay away.

It's not wise to acknowledge 'safe harbors', as they will be used against us. DUH!  Can you image what would happen if the FBI said that they wouldn't conduct activities in Starbucks?
