A U.S. soldier opened fire on coalition forces attending a stress clinic at a military base outside of Baghdad International Airport Monday, and at least five were killed, the Pentagon and U.S. Command said. It was unclear how many U.S. soldiers were killed in the shooting at Camp Liberty, but a defense official said the shooter is alive and in custody. Three were wounded, but it was not immediately clear if the shooter was one of them.
Pentagon officials first indicated that an Army soldier shot the others and then turned the gun on himself.
Do you have a name? A photograph?
They spoke on condition of anonymity because the issue is sensitive and details unclear.
Uh huh. Okay, this might turn out to be a "Section 8" off his meds. But I'll offer a wager to any commenter willing to accept it that he turns out to be either a Muslim or a racial minority or both.
Rules: comment must be postmarked before the Pentagon "clarifies" the story. Stakes: loser must post a photograph of himself.
UPDATE: Well, according to the AP photo and story, he's a stressed out white guy. I guess it's a good thing nobody took my bet!
