October 10th attack on Kirkuk Ammo Depot

I'm back and have received several requests for the footage I told a number of you about prior to my trip. For those of you who get your news from the TV,
I bring you the results of an attack on Kirkuk Airbase in Iraq.
"Intelligence indicates that civilians aligned with a militia organization were responsible for last night's mortar attack," base spokesman Lt. Col. Jonathan Withington said.

The same Fox News article states:
There were no injuries reported, and Withington said the attack had no strategic effect.
Watch both versions (there are others available). The first video was the first I saw. They were showing it on a recap of Mosaic TV. About 3 minutes and 50 seconds to 4 minutes in, there is a flash in the background that fills the screen and all that remains when the picture returns is a mushroom cloud. I thought, "Well...maybe the film has been doctored. I'll see if I can find footage throught the American news. I didn't find any such thing. But I did find footage from an American bunker.

Filmed from a bunker:



Fox News is one of the few sources to report it and it did so by this headline:
Insurgents Spark Fire at U.S. Ammo Dump; 14 Dead in Iraq Violence. See it here.

Did anyone see this stuff on the news?

There is no liberal media. There is no conservative media. There is only Clear Channel and Youtube. Thanks Youtube.
