Ansar al-Sunnah gloats over US having to recall troops for Katrina
A leading Iraqi insurgent group said on Thursday Hurricane Katrina had hurt the U.S. war effort and helped cut helicopter sorties over Baghdad, according to an Internet posting."There is a noticeable decrease in the number of helicopters hovering over Baghdad after the American government withdrew many of the airmen," said a statement from the Army of Ansar al-Sunna, posted on an Islamist Web site. The statement could not be authenticated, but it was posted on a Web site that often carries messages from al Qaeda and other insurgent groups fighting U.S.-led forces and the American-backed Iraqi government.
