The May 2002 American bombing of a wedding party in Mukaradeeb, Iraq was more of a turkey shoot with air support: "Among the dead were 27 members of the extended Rakat family, their wedding guests and even the band of musicians hired to play at the ceremony, among them Hussein al-Ali from Ramadi, one of the most popular singers in western Iraq." https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/may/21/iraq.rorymccarthy
