Iraqi 5th Corps surrenders
2003-04-11
THE 5th Corps of the Iraqi army has surrendered at Mosul, the US Central Command said today.
A wise and popular choice
US forces on the ground were determining whether to treat the Iraqis as enemy prisoners of war or to let them return home, said Captain Frank Thorp, a Central Command spokesman.
Oh those inhumane, genocidal US imperialists!
"We are confirming that the Iraqi 5th Corps in and around Mosul have agreed to a cease-fire. Right now we're in the process of deciding if they'll become (POWs) or go home or what their eventual outcome will be," he said. "They have made the very wise choice of living for the future of Iraq instead of dying for this Iraqi regime," he said.

#1  Disarm everyone. Talk to the grunts. Find the officers who waved guns to keep them from deserting, and keep them. Cut the grunts loose and any noncomms fingered. Keep the others a bit longer.
