Iraq
Very, Very Busy In Iraq
2007-06-14
In operations throughout Iraq over the past three days, coalition and Iraqi forces killed nine terrorists and detained 76 suspected terrorists, military officials reported.

During operations targeting al Qaeda in Iraq and the Baghdad car bomb network today, coalition forces killed two terrorists, detained 13 suspected terrorists and discovered a cache of weapons.

In an incident yesterday, coalition forces observed two terrorists emplacing improvised explosive devices in Baghdad and raided their bed-down location. As coalition forces approached the building, the two terrorists disregarded the interpreter's instructions and approached the ground force. Coalition forces engaged the two men, killing them.
Much, much more good news at the link.

Tasteful and appropos Shakespearean allusion there, Op. Keep up the good work.

#5  Glenmore. Respectfully. if that were really really true, Nancy and Harry would NOT have folded so completely on the supplemental funding bill.

Despite what the media say are the poll numbers on Iraq, the political opportunists in Washington know that "cut n' run" is a loser. (yet they still affect a tale of sound and fury to their rabidly insane BDS afflicted base. And Harry Reid makes the perfect idiot to tell it)

#2  I'm afraid it is lost, Bobby. On exactly the same battlefields as Vietnam was lost - American college campuses, network tv news studios, New York Times etc., and in the shallow, Hilton-obsessed, ADD-afflicted minds of the Americans they cater to, which appear to be a solid majority. In a democracy you get the government you deserve --- keep your ammo locker stocked.

#1  Well, but it's still a quagmire. The war is lost. Ask Harry.
