#1 More than almost anything I hope this article has nothing but truth in it. I'd love to think that we are taking the gloves off in dealing with the koranimals from iran, since they really need an industrial sized can of whup-ass opened on them....

#2 It's amazing what can be accomplished with a few hundred thousand good men & women in the heart of what used to be safe territory for jihadis. If this story isn't quite true, there is obviously a great deal going on in the region which the MSM and the US electorate is unaware of.

#3 There have been Turkish news reports on the dissapearance, so it seems certain he did dissapear.

Turks thought it was Kurds BTW, but then the Turks blame the Kurds for everything.

#4 Some stories just make me feel warm and fuzzy inside, and a story suggesting we seized a real, live, evil, Iranian general is great. As a matter of fact, he does know where the bodies are buried.

#5 This makes sense if he is both OPS in Central Iraq and was responsible for the five dead Americans.

We can only hope that his life has become like one of the gruesomer episodes of The X Files.
