Medal for Bravery: Motaring Kids on a Soccer Field
 BAGHDAD, Iraq - Explosive shells rained down on a dusty soccer field in the Shiite Muslim slum of Sadr City on Wednesday, killing eight Iraqi youths and injuring dozens amid an ominous wave of such attacks between sectarian districts of the capital.The attack on the soccer field, carried out with rockets or mortar shells, occurred about 4:30 p.m. as young men and boys in the poor neighborhood gathered to play at the end of the day. The explosives carved deep craters into the surface and scattered shrapnel, human flesh and pieces of clothing in the area. The injured and dying were rushed to area hospitals. I wish I was brave enough to attack a bunch of kids... /sarc Posted by: Chinter Flarong 2006-11-09 |
