Whadya think?:D?

"The Iron Giants give a deafaning shriek as an explosion resounds- their payload whistling as they hurdle through the air. Thier destination? A village of civillians; Men, Women and Children living harmoniously as one in their barren paradise of sand and sun. The monsterous tubes meet their target- a small wooden hut in the center of the village. The initial blast caused by these bombs incinerate all but the outlying huts on the edges of the settlement.

A cry is heard- a small baby lies helpless in his mothers' limp arms. Yet more children take in the abhorring scene of death and destruction; hatred grows hot in their veins like the salty tears now welling as clear orbs in their eyes.

I like it a lot. Is it from a story you're writing??? The only thing that stuck out for me is that in a desert, where this is taking place, there wouldn't be a wooden hut-- you can't find a lot of wood in a desert-like environment. The hut would most likely be made of mud, or cement...? This was the only thing that didn't fit, otherwise I like it.
