I can't find this anyplace on the web. It's not like TT to be vague. I'm not sure who fired the missiles, rebels or Americans?

1. CNN has the pic.

Nothing about the attack. Sometimes "rockets" means mortars.
Sometimes it means RPGs. There are a lot of attacks that don't
make the news.

2. It's not there now but I believe you. I'm sorry, I can't accept what the
journalists are doing. They're incompetent and they're making their readers stupider. The first question for any person with the most basic investigative skills would be;
1. what happened?
2. who was acted upon?
3. who was the perpetrator?

3. They are not journalists.
They are propagandists that pretend to be journalists.
Self-interested, spineless hacks, in other words.
