ISF Chases Hillah Guerillas Into Mosque
HILLAH, Iraq A combined Iraqi Police and Iraqi Army force stopped an organized attack in Hillah March 25.
"Jones?"
"Yessir?"
"Do you smell brimstone?"
"Is that what it smells like?" | A military-style force, armed with AK-47 assault rifles and rocket-propelled grenades, gathered in southern Hillah
"But why the smell of brimstone, sir?"
"Notice that bat wings on each of the Heroes of Islam?"
"Ahah. I almost missed them."
"And the pointy parts sticking up under their turbans?"
"Ahah! The turbans hide the horns! Gotcha, sir!" | As they attacked Coalition forces and ISF with RPGs and small arms fire, Iraqi Army and Iraqi Police forces counterattacked.
This sounds very promising.
They secured major intersections and engaged the militants over the course of several hours.
"Delta-56! We are engaging demons at grid YX23459876!"
"Roger, Golf-51! In contact with Mahdi Army at YX23459876! You are authorized to use the exorcist!"
"Roger! Jones! bring up the padre!"
"He's on it, sir!"
"Back! Back, creatures of evil! Back to the pit from whence you came!"
"[Moooo! Gibber! Gnash!]" | They forced them to retreat to a mosque.
Then what happened? Are they still in the mosque?
The ISF reacted quickly and effectively to maintain stability in al Hillah and to restore law and order, said Lt. Col. Daryl McDowell, team chief for the MiTT. They did a great job, quickly re-establishing security for the residents.
