Woah, crazy!!

Mmm... greeted with open arms as liberators. We brought them democracy!!

Why were they shooting after the bomb went off?

Once upon a time I wanted to be a war photographer...I can hardly handle the little bit of clips I see about the war from the comfort of my home. Some might say I'm scared, I like to think of it as not wanting a front row seat to the destruction of our humanity show.

Mission accomplished, indeed.

The blue truck was the first up-armored vehicle in a convoy. The bomb went off in an effort to destroy the white up-armored truck caught in the blast.

The shooting was the follow-on ambush of the convoy by whoever set the car bomb and/or the crew of the convoy shooting at someone they thought was responsible for the bomb... Pretty standard tactics.

Not a photographer.

One word: concussion.

I feel bad for this guy. The blast alone can really mess his brain up.

wow, that made me cry. I wasn't expecting that at all...

Those trucks weren't up armored. They're just standard Ford Rangers. markd was right about the timing though. Good tactics do say to wait until point man/vehicle has passed before you detonate a mine/bomb/whatever. This separates the forces and increases your odds. I

God, I'm so fucking glad we're pulling out of that shit hole. We had no business there to begin with, and it's obvious they aren't ready to act like a civilized people. >> ^therealmarkd:

Because if you shoot before the bomb goes off, people will start running away.
