Careful filming in Iraq

Be careful not to film anything in Iraq that the army might not want people back home to see. A Reuters man was shot by U.S. troops while he filmed outside Abu Ghraib prison in western Baghdad after it had come under a mortar attack because“soldiers had thought his camera was a rocket-propelled grenade launcher.” , according to http://www.reuters.com/newsArticle.jhtml?type=topNews&storyID=3296215. International media bodies are calling for a full inquiry, but nothing is likely to come of it.
