We have another example tonight of a hit on a market place, with a lot of civilian casualties, again we will probably have a long period of deafening silence from the military, and again the media will take this silence as to mean guilt.
If we had a attack in progress either fixed wing or Missile they must know within a couple of hours if it is possible we were responsible,or if it was indeed a Iraqi Sam hit.
Either way the silence from the military feeds the media bias, we had a long rambling commentry about civilian casualties by the guy on site in Iraq, and only a very short and grudging admission that it was possibly, a Iraqi home goal by the frontman in the studio back here.
I will say it again the military need to react much more quicky to these reports.
