Your government admitted afterwards that it was your bomb, with some reluctance. 3 stray Cruise missiles also fell in Southern Turkey. The US media does not show the dead, dying and wounded. If they did it would annoy the pentagon because they have to half-truths about the war to keep the masses in check to support the cause.

Showing dead and captured pow's when they know full and well it is against the Geneva convention.

As if the US media did not show Iraqi POW's. Your government made no comment on this.
