#1 a lawmaker from the SCIRI, expressed his dismay about the raid "because it was American soldiers who searched the mosque" and this seems to be one of the changes in rules of engagement

Hallelujah! One baby step in the right direction maybe? We all know here at the Burg the ROE changes are at least equally as important as the troop surge. I hope there's more of this to come. I like this part too:

Meanwhile a new bird appeared in the sky; not exactly new but one that's been absent for a long time; since the end of major operations in 2003. In fact this is the first time ever that I see the B-1 flying over Baghdad. Since Tuesday, the long-range huge bomber appeared several times over the city spending as long as 75 minutes in some cases.

#5 In English, it translates into "Operation Law & Order". Of course, the pol is lying. The Iraqi Special Ops [Kurds] entered the mosque. LINK
