I agree that they were probably charging a checkpoint, were shot at to stop (read: no casualties) and now are making a huff about it because they can.

In the same vein, you could say that the troops knew she was coming and that they shot at her because they regard her as anti-US.
Given the huge number of incidents like this one that have happened in Iraq, and the fact that they had already passed through numerous other checkpoints without incident, why on earth would you just assume that they would charge a checkpoint while ignoring repeated warnings? And what do you mean by "no casualties"? One of her bodyguards died.
