Agence France Presse is reporting that U.S. soldiers shot dead a teenager and wounded four others when troops opened fire at a wedding celebration in Fallujah. The shooting came on the same day that a tape emerged purportedly from Saddam Hussein that called on Iraqis to fight the occupation and for the U.S. to leave Iraq. Meanwhile, the U.S. is stepping up plans to create a 40,000 strong new Iraqi Army to relieve some of the pressure on U.S. troops.
