i feel sorry for that agent and i give him my respect for doing what he did, but they should have known that if they were driving toward a US checkpoint they have to stop, no matter what, or they get blasted. i mean, the US have lost heaps of troops to car bombs so the guys on that checkpoint probably weren't about to let a car through on the off chance that it was the italians, it could have just as easily been a suicide bomber
