The missile the United States fired at Iraq this morning has caused tension between Baghdad and Washington. Iraq calls it an aggression and an unjustifiable action which could lead to an all-out assault by the United States. The US says the strike was a warning and hopes the situation doesn't escalate. The attack came after an Iraqi surface-to-air missile battery locked its radar on four British planes that were enforcing NATO's no-fly zone in the once-defeated desert dictatorship.
