You must know that this is the phrase that is on the lips of many of our Italian allies. It is beyond irony that after spending a month in captivity, on the day of her release, Giuliana Sgrena is fired upon by American troops as she and her liberators sped toward freedom.

You know I actually believe that the American troops were not at fault here. I think that it was just a terribly unfortunate coincidence. There is undoubtably fault here but I am not going to point any fingers, but I will say that we are going to bear the brunt of the blame from the international community. No matter what the facts are, it looks like once againwe are too ready to use deadly force. We invaded this country, killed untold thousands of civilians, disrupted the lives of millions, and continually changed the reason for the attack, how can we possibly convince the world that we are not murderers? We cannot.
