British Hostage May Have Been Killed by US Grenade | News | English

So as a piece of commentary, I was going to say, why the Hell did they send in the American Special forces for a British Hostage. The Americans have a history of firendly fire (allegedly) and the SAS have a history of doing well at this kind of thing.

But apparently it was in the area owned, ahem, I mean controlled, by the Americans; and they knew the area better allegedly.

Still I think it shoulf have been the Brits doing the work with support, if nothing else it is going to strain relations ‘if’ it proves to be that it the Americans grenaded the poor woman.

There have been a few comments on the web though about how much the American media stated so categorically to start with that it was a terroist bomb vest, detonated by the terrorists that did the dammage.
