Who are the Terrorists...?

A snippet of a news story I read this morning...

Funeral Procession Bombed in Iraq
By: Steven R. Hurst, Associated Press Writer

BAGHDAD - A bomb hidden in a parked car struck the funeral procession of a Sunni tribal leader who was gunned down earlier Thursday, killing at least 26 mourners as al-Qaida appeared to turn up its campaign of frightening its growing opposition into submission.

The attack in Fallujah, 40 miles west of Baghdad, targeted the passing procession for Alaa Zuwaid, a 60-year-old restaurant owner who was part of a Sunni tribe that had formed an alliance with other tribal leaders against al-Qaida. Police and medical officials said 45 other people were wounded in the bombing.

Zuwaid was killed that morning when militants shot him in front of his house, police said - nearly a month after his 25-year-old son was slain as he walked down the street.

In all, 87 people were killed or found dead in sectarian violence across Iraq on Thursday. [Emphasis added.]

Unless we're using new terminology to describe our US servicemembers, I don't see any indication that we were involved in the deaths or violence described in the article above. I see "al-Qaida" and "militants shot him" and "sectarian violence". When Rosie O'Donnell likens our servicemembers in Iraq to terrorists, I have cause to wonder what exactly she's smoking.
