16 Terrorists "Directly Linked" To May 12 Attack on/Capture of Our Troops Caught
Ticking time-bomb time: the hypothetical Andrew Sullivan and John McCain say never happens in reality.
Torturer/killers know where our boys are. They already tortured and killed one of our troops; doubtless they have the same planned for the remaining two, if they haven't tortured and killed them already.
So: Shall we protect these nice fellers from harsh treatment and physical discomfort while our troops are getting drills through their hands and heated irons to their faces and genitals?
Is that "moral"?
U.S. and Iraqi troops have detained 16 people they say are "directly related to the attack" on May 12 in which three U.S. soldiers were apparently captured, a U.S. military official said.
The three men disappeared after insurgents attacked a U.S. military observation post in the Mahmoudiya area, in a stretch known as the Triangle of Death.
Four American soldiers and an Iraqi soldier were found dead at the scene of the ambush.
The body of one of the three missing soldiers was found floating in the Euphrates River on Wednesday.
An intense search continues near the river for the other two men, Spc. Alex R. Jimenez, 25, of Lawrence, Massachusetts, and Pvt. Byron W. Fouty, 19, of Waterford, Michigan.
...
On Friday, hundreds of soldiers from the 1st Battalion, 23rd Infantry Regiment Stryker Battalion searched fish farms in a swampy area 11 miles south of Yusufiya, the military said.
They found 14 weapons caches and 3,000 pounds of explosives and ammunition, much of it buried in 55-gallon drums, the military said.
...
The location may have been a crossing point to transport the missing soldiers from one side of the river to the other, the military said.
Some poor brave soul at Al Qaeda just passed me the following memo:
UNCLASSIFIED
AL QAEDA DEPT. OF LOGISTICS & SUPPLIES
Document: 007-THX1138
The capture of so much of our ammunition and explosives will require cut-backs in the issuance of ordinance to jihadi fighters in the coming weeks. All AQ Customer Slaughter Representatives will be receiving one (1) magazine of ammunition and one (1) Merriadoc "Merry" Brandybuck shortsword from the Lord of the Rings collection, with which to kill infidels until the supply problems have been corrected. There are also a limited number of replica Glaives from Krull (first come, first serve).
Thank you for your patience, and your continued excellent work for the Al Qaeada Customer Slaughhter Team.
