Iraq Missiles

NPR's Martha Raddatz reports that Iraqi air defense forces fired two missiles at two US F-16s patrolling the skies over northern Iraq in what has been a no-fly zone for Iraqi planes. The attack heightened the likelihood that the US would retaliate against Iraqi air defense systems as they did twice last week.
