If a tommahawk or 2,000 lb bomb would have gone off in the market there would have been nothing left. The market shown by AlJareeza to be the market hit is smaller then a football field (100 yrds x 50 yrds) well with in the total destruction area (Area where NOTHING survives)of both of those weapons. There would have been NO market to film only a large smolderning crater, with the surounding building suffering massive damage. Not a 15 ft crater with the surrounding buildings windows blown out from shrapnel.

I read recently that their was an unconfirmed report that the market was actually hit by an Iraqi missile that was originally fired in an attempt to destroy the coalition missile that was fired on the Iraqi missile position. Clear as mud, right?
I remember the cruise missile testing in Northern AB when they were first being developed. A completely devastating weapon.
