| Iraqi Carries Out First Suicide Attack? |
| 2003-03-25 |
| An Iraqi committed a suicide attack in the southern region of Fao overnight and destroyed a tank of the U.S.-British alliance, an Iraqi military spokesman said Tuesday, March 25. "The first martyr operation (suicide attack) was carried out this night," Hazem al-Rawi told a press conference in Baghdad. The attack was carried out in the Fao peninsula which British forces say they have secured. An Iraqi civilian "penetrated behind enemy lines and destroyed a tank", the spokesman said, without giving details. There was no immediate confirmation of the report. No confirmation from anybody. Most likely untrue, but we'll see. |

| #3 If this guy did destroy a tank with a bomb-belt, it sure was a *big* bomb-belt. |

| #2 I don't picture any Iraqis suicide bombing for Saddam, espeicially considering they're so pussy they need to put civilians in front of them when they shoot. |

| #1 There's now talk in the blogosphere that the fedayeen Saddam are Al Qaeda under new management, but employing old tactics. It doesn't matter anyway, though: We're in Iraq because we're worried about a passing of WMD from Saddam to terrorists. It appears he has some already, home grown and loyal to him. |
