FILE - In this Wednesday, March 15, 2006 file photo, Iraqis examine a house damaged during a U.S. raid in the rural Ishaqi area, about 80 kilometers (50 miles) north of Baghdad in Iraq. Iraqi government officials say they will investigate newly surfaced allegations that U.S. soldiers shot women and children, then tried to cover it up with an airstrike, during a 2006 hunt for insurgents. An adviser to Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, Ali Al-Moussawi, said Friday Sept 2 2011 the government will revive its stalled probe now that new information about the March 15, 2006, raid has come to light. (AP Photo/ Hameed Rasheed, File)AP - Negotiations to keep U.S. troops in Iraq came under new strain Friday in the wake of WikiLeaks' release of a U.N. letter alleging that an Iraqi family was handcuffed and shot in the head in a 2006 raid by American forces — not accidentally killed in an airstrike.
