#1 Probably a really lucky shot. The Army is pretty tight when it comes to munitions storage. And POL, paint, compressed gasses, vehicles, and other imflamambles.

#2 Gee, glad to hear that "The attack does not effect ongoing Baghdad security operations"...

#3 Somebody definately won the lottery. In my experience, the Hajjis are kinda fuzzy on the whole aiming thing.
Usualy they are in a real hurry too, to avoid the Preadator/Hellizap/counterbattery excitement -- which does not help accuracy.
