| 2007-08-01 |
| Iraqi Security Forces teams conducted a series of raids, July 29 detaining a suspected al Qaeda cell leader responsible for attacks and facilitating foreign fighters in the Al Qaim area. With U.S. Special Forces present as advisers, Iraqi Police detained two primary suspects and three additional persons of interest in the vicinity of Husaybuh, located on the Euphrates River west of Al Qaim. Various documents, including multiple identification cards and passports, were also seized during the operation. The cell leader, who allegedly runs al Qaeda in Iraq activities in Husaybuh, is purportedly involved in the planning of future large scale attacks against Coalition Forces in the western Euphrates River valley. The second primary suspect is a school teacher believed to be spreading propaganda and recruiting his students to kill members of the Iraqi Police and Army. |

| #6 Another day, another "leader" of AQiI captured. Yep, it's definitely time to "redeploy" the troops there, Donks (/sarcasm). |

| #3 I suspect there is something about a terrorist that makes one want to work with children and indoctrinate them. Look at the NEA. |

| #2 There's something about wanting to work with children and indoctrinate them that makes it easy for someone to become a terrorist. |

| #1 The second primary suspect is a school teacher believed to be spreading propaganda and recruiting his students to kill members of the Iraqi Police and Army. Doctors and now teachers. Time to put a video cam and microphone in each classroom and mosque. And offer a $1000 reward to anyone who tips off authorities to this kind of crap. |
