#1 "Civil affairs soldiers were passing out election pamphlets in Fallujah, just west of Baghdad, when someone began shooting from a nearby house, sources told Fox."

Didn't get the memo on "not being seen", I guess...

Wow! I remember how annoying canvassing neighborhoods with campaign literature was, but this takes the prize!

Oh, and if it is Yassin, then Bush should trumpet it as "we caught the man who escaped from the 1993 attack on the World Trade Center, a man Saddam Hussein sheltered for a decade".

#4 The big question is why was TF121 readily available to cover down on a bunch of CA guys?. The local QRF should have handled that gun fight so I think maybe there was a fishing trip in the works when the dummies took the bait.

#5 Also interesting that TF 121 comes up just as word is out that TF 121's work in Iraq is done, and its heading for Afghan.

"Some things you'll see, and some things you wont see."

I think what we've got here is something that isnt quite what it seems on the surface.
