Iraq
(Another) Iranian-Trained Terror Suspect Captured
2008-04-13
Deja vu all over again.
BAGHDAD, Iraq – Coalition forces detained an Iraqi citizen suspected of being an Iranian-trained intelligence operative, along with three other Iraqi criminals Sunday during operations near Balad.

The targeted individual allegedly collected intelligence on Coalition forces and airbases and delivered it to Iranian intelligence agents. Intelligence led ground forces to the target area where they captured the wanted individual and the other suspected criminals without incident.

“Coalition forces will continue to seek out and bring to justice suspected criminals such as this individual who ignore the rule of law and threaten the security of Iraq,” said Cmdr. Scott Rye, MNF-I spokesman.

#5  See also TOPIX > US MILITARY IN IRAQ:SOMETHING HAS GOT TO GIVE. The strains on the US military.

IMO OSAMA BIN LADEN + ISLAMISTS are making their move already - to save their weakening Jihad, they need to both empower + expand NUCLEAR IRAN + acquire NUKE-WMDS TECH, etc. TRANSFERS ASAP AMAP NLT 2010 or 2012 [sooner the better for Jihad], vv BLACK MARKETS + espec Cold War caches from RUSSIA-CHINA + CENASIA. SCHEMAS TO DESTABILIZE RUSSIA-CHINA + CENASIA [Asia] ALSO SERVE TO INDUCE DUBYA-US TO ATTACK IRAN AND BRING ABOUT OSAMA'S PERSONAL IRAN-CENTRIC ISLAMIST APOCALYPSE, + gener GEOPOL CHAOS.

Osama is getting the USA to follow and attack him + Radical Islam in order to preclude the destabilization and splintering of Asia unto [NUCLEAR]Islamism = NUCLEAR MILITANT TERROR. OSAMA + MOUD ARE NOW ON STRATEGIC DEFENSIVE [active-defense] AGZ ISRAEL-WEST IN ONE, AND OFFENSE IN THE EAST.

HOW WILL THE USA RESPOND, AND MORE IMPORTANTLY HOW WILL THE US RESPOND TO A RUSSO-CHINESE, etc. MIL RESPONSE AGZ OSAMA=RADICAL ISLAMISM???

WILL LEFT-SACRED "MACKINDER'S WORLD ISLAND OF EURASIA" WEAR THE ISLAMIST BURQUA???

#4  Indeed, tw. More and more of these vermin are being ratted out by their neighbors who finally feel secure enough to do so. By some amazing coincidence, making citizens feel secure was part of Petraeus' plan. Go figure!

Annoyed neighbors? Annoyed former comrades? Children wanting to protect their candy-laden American friends from bad guys? Laptops and cell phones? Iraqi Police or IA or some of our guys noticed something amiss as they wandered down the street? The details don't matter, because all are happening and together leading to wonderful result. Congratulations, y'all!
