    Unhappy Friendly Fire ?!?!?


    Following the death of an Italian intelligence agent in Iraq at the hands of their supposed allies, the Americans, there are calls for the US to "identify and punish" those responsible.

    We all know that no Americans will be punished !

    The US and Italy had different versions of what happened to Nicola Calipari, who died under US fire while escorting a freed hostage.

    The US says shots were fired because the vehicle was speeding and did not heed troops' warnings for it to stop.

    The Italians claim that the car was travelling at no more than 40km per hour and that Calipari had also made "all the necessary contacts" with the US authorities before making the journey.

    The US forces have got a growing reputation for firing on and killing Allies. Is anything ever going to be done to rectify this ?

    Discuss ...

    A thread like this surely will only be full of anti USA sentiment

    No one that I know on this forum was there so who knows what happened ?

    I cant believe USA would have a shoot to kill policy (just because Italy paid a ransom)

    Of course to suggest the middle east would be a safer place in 10yrs time with USA involvement then without encourages flames

    I wonder if Syrian troops start to withdraw due to UN or USA ?
