U.S. Army: incompetence or lying? Maybe both.
Chicken-hawks are so blinded by the smell of defeat that they are no longer able to read their own language.
Where did Sgrena say that 300 bullets actually hit the car she was in? She said that 300-400 bullets were shot and that a rain of fire and bullets hit them. This is not inconsistent with the report from the U.S. Army: warning shots fired in front of the vehicle. A machine gun will easily fire well in excess of 500 bullets per minute. In 15s as reported, a single machine gun could have shot 200 bullets in front of the car and a few actually at the car. Second, three or four drops of water on a car would definitely make rain.

Let's have a look the report from the U.S army: arm waving, flash-lights, then warning shots in front of the car, finally shooting at the engine block. Either this report is wrong or the U.S. soldiers need a better training. If there was warning leaving sufficient time for the driver to react, how come the car did not stop? Why would a driver that had successfully passed several check-points take the risk of not stopping for yet another check-point?
More likely the warnings were not done properly. Add to that: if they fired only at the engine block and one occupant was killed and another wounded, then they need to go back to shooting range for requalification.
"members of the most highly trained and disciplined military organization in the world" My ass!
Let's put some chicken-hawks inside a car and fire a few bullets at them, killing one and wounding another. And, after the shit in his pants has been cleaned, let's hear if the wounded one is able to report exactly how many bullets were fired and where they were fired. More likely, he will sob and weep "Mummy!" as sure as he is a right-wing pussy.
