Blasting suspect houses

Anyone noticed the latest tactic of our illegal occupation of Iraq?

In Tikrit houses _suspected_ of harbouring terrorists are being blasted by our masters.
Atleast the Israeli occupation has some capability to spy around and and gather some flimsy evidence.
Also three massive bombs (atleast 500 lb each) have been dropped on a heavily populated town. WTF is happenning. No news on this! There are children and humans in towns!!

Reading fascist redneck vomit in the US it is clear this is a new tactic.
The bent british press of course has other stories to deviate attention.US forces sweep Saturday through

These are the type of words being used to justify this latest tactic.

'shooting machine guns and heavy weapons at houses suspected of harboring guerrillas.'

'retaliating for downing Friday of Black Hawk army helicopter'

'This is to remind the town that we have teeth and claws and we will use them," said Lt. Col. Steven Russell, commander of the 1st Battalion, 22nd Infantry Regiment.'

All this at a worrying time when the Redcross has withdrawn not just from Baghdad but the other town we are supposed to provide security to (under the the Genéva convention), Basra!!!

Any more news on this?
