Esta mañana veo al pasar la clasica placa roja de Cronica diciendo: F-16 norteamericano derribado en Irak", me llamo la atencion, ya que no debe ser facil para la resistencia lograr eso sin fuerza aerea y sin armas grandes AA, el New York Times, que es un poco mas serio que Cronica dice lo siguiente:
"BAGHDAD, Nov. 27 -- An American fighter jet crashed near Baghdad today, as the lifting of a three-day curfew in the capital was marked by scattered violence, including the kidnapping of three guards from the Municipal Building in the city’s center.
The Reach of War
Go to Complete Coverage » In a brief statement, the military said that an Air Force F-16 operating in support of combat troops in Anbar province about 20 miles northwest of Baghdad went down this afternoon. There was no word on the fate of the pilot, who was the only one on board.
The Associated Press quoted an eyewitness, Mohammed al-Obeidi, who lives in the nearby town of Karmah, who said by telephone that the jet had been flying erratically, moving up and down, before it dived into a farm field and exploded.
Mr. Obeidi said that other American planes rushed to the scene and were circling the wreckage. "
En definitiva, que se cayó es cierto, el tema es si alguien "lo ayudó"
