Making friends in Iraq, by killing them

US: my bad!:

Hundreds of Iraqis chanting "America is the enemy of God" and shooting in the air on Saturday buried eight of 10 guards apparently shot by U.S. troops who mistook them for anti-American rebels [...]

More than 36 hours after the deaths, the U.S. military apologized for what it called an "unfortunate incident" in the rebellious town of Falluja, west of Baghdad.

Hearts and minds.

But no worries. Bush still thinks everything is going peachy.
