Headline somewhat confusing - I do not think the events are related...

Bodies of US soldiers in Iraq aircraft crash found Fri Aug 11, 2:16 AM ET

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - The bodies of two missing U.S. servicemen have been discovered in the wreckage of their helicopter which crashed in Iraq's Anbar province, the U.S. military said on Friday.

"We have recovered the bodies of the two missing soldiers from the wreckage of the aircraft," said a U.S. military statement concerning Tuesday's crash.

The military had said after the crash that it was not the result of enemy action.

Screw the wording, what is important to some is that none of our guys and ladies are left behind.

Plus one has to take into consideration that the article is not from an American outlet. You know like no can speaka the englas very well.

Where were the bodies found? Underwater? In Kurdish party offices? The author is biased against the Kurds I think.

Agreed. It's just that the headline made it sound like the Kurds were holding the bodies.

I think not! Looks like a deliberate attempt to make Kurds (who are pro-US) look like the US enemies - all this by relying on a rule that most people only read/remember headlines.

I believe this news is just beginning to surface and more will be relayed later. In the meantime why don't we just pray and give thanks that the bodies were recovered.
