Military friendly fire cover up.

Graphic, warning these are real and some people may have been killed. Watch at your own discretion, and risk.

During the first part of the video they are excited about the tank back up, and then boom the guy with the camera is blown across the room from the pressure.

This is the story of a family that was lied too according to Salon.

During the video you can hear them creating fabrication stating that it is a Mortar, when there are reports of tank shells impacting the building.

As if that isnt worse what about this:
After the shell hit, those men on the roof who could still walk bounded toward the staircase at the northeast corner, shoving each other forward and down the stairs, at least one fleeing so quickly that he committed the cardinal sin of leaving his gun behind. The men regrouped on the second floor. Meanwhile the tank's M240 coaxial machine gun, mounted next to the turret, began firing into building #2. Instinctively, one of the soldiers who had fled to the second floor started firing back at the tank.

Rob began directing the effort to get the shooting to stop. " Make sure that tank knows where we're at!" he yelled into the radio, trying to reach the lieutenant in charge of the platoon, one of the refugees from the roof who was now on the second floor. "I think the tank fired at us." "Yeah, it just took out the fucking roof," marveled a soldier. "Who did?" demanded another. "That tank," replied the soldier. "I saw him fucking hit it."

Also reported that Pat Tillman died from an IED, or some other crap, but in fact he was killed standing next to a translator, they could not identify Blue on Blue.
