US forces have killed the 17-year-old son of the governor of northern Iraq's Salahuddin province.
In a raid on Sunday, the forces shot the boy and another of the governor’s relatives.
Governor Hamad al-Qaisi's family have claimed the Americans stormed the family house in the town of Beiji, where the governor's son Hussam and his cousin were staying.
They say the soldiers shot dead Hussam in a "barbaric" action that was without cause.
A statement from the US military said it shot two armed men, adding it was later found they were both related to the governor.
The statement also claimed the troops had wounded and captured an al Qaeda financer in the house.
Local officials have demanded an investigation into the shooting and say the governor has cut short a visit to Turkey to arrange the funeral of his son.

So why are the Americans in Iraq
If they are prepared to fly a couple of planes into there own buildings I dont see that they have an issue with shotting a couple of innocent Iraq’s.
Check out Loose Change the Documentary for all those people who want to find out about the biggest con job in US history it is a must see.

Not enough
There is not enough information in the story to make an informed opinion. Being a governor’s son doesn’t equal being innocent. What were the reasons for the attack in the first place? Capturing an al Queda financier? What was he doing in the governor’s home when the governor was out of town?

A bullet would be cheap compared to the half a million you spent on a missile killing a couple of innocent children or the the cluster bomb that will kill the now childrens children.
At least depleted uranium don’t cost much to contaminate some kiddies just that your soldiers will also get a little sick.
I would expect your answer from a blood thirsty MAGGOT such as your self.

I have no respect for you that doesn’t mean I would waste a bullet on you.
Ever consider you need to seek counseling you have alot of pent up rage issues.
As far as pieces of shit go I would say you fit the bill for anal delivery.
