( Israel called the attack a tragic mistake.) A perfect example of the fact that the Associated Press is a mouthpiece for Israel - that they include ISRAEL's point of view in that blurb, and NOT the SURIVORS of Israel's ATTACK who are US MILITARY. I suppose we should be grateful that they mentioned it at all.

The Israeli lobby is the problem here.
