In Iraq, the US military has admitted to killing four family members and wounding another Monday in the Adwar village north of Baghdad. A couple and their nineteen-year-old son were instantly killed in the attack. The couple’s two young daughters were injured. One of them later died in the hospital of her wounds, leaving her sister as the only survivor. A cousin who witnessed the killings said US soldiers immediately opened fire after breaking into the home. The attack came two days after the US admitted to killing thirteen Iraqi civilians in an airstrike south of Baghdad. The dead included two women and an infant child. Another two children were wounded. Today marks the fifth anniversary of then-Secretary of State Colin Powell’s speech before the UN Security Council making the case for attacking Iraq.
