Hmmm, they accidentally hit the al-Jazeera offices with *two* missiles? That's particularly unlucky.

Still, luck isn't with the US military, there's a history of these unlucky accidents. Not only did they accidentally bomb al-Jazeera in Kabul, but during the NATO bombings of Belgrade that were condemned by the Chinese government US planes accidentally bombed the Chinese embassy.

When American planes bombed the Libyan capital Tripoli in 1986 they were denied use of French airspace for the attack. The French embassy in Tripoli was accidentally bombed in the raid.

Senior al-Jazzera journalists are openly saying the Pentagon is behind the hacking that has sabotaged the al-Jazeera english language website.

Or is that just another accident?
