#1 I was halfway through the second paragraph when I thought "this has to be coming from the military. No press organ would publish something that exposes the barbarity of our enemies and a success of our troops".

I hovered over the link, and my guess was confirmed.

On a vaguely related subject -- Murtha's demanding that Abu Ghraib be dismantled. Didn't we hand that over to the Iraqis? It came to mind because the "hood over his head for three days" would be the shrieking headline on every US paper if it had been US troops responsible for it.

#2 Nothing good has come from Salman Pak for quite a long time. It was a notorious area during Saddam's reign and appears to remain such.
