131 Terrorists Seized In Joint Iraqi/American Raid

Good news:

Iraqi soldiers, backed by US helicopters, are reported to have seized 131 suspects in a dawn raid on insurgents planning attacks on the holy city of Kerbala.

...

Several suspected militants were reported killed in the operation, which began late on Friday and culminated in the dawn raid just outside Kerbala, about 100 kilometres south-west of Baghdad.

Officials say say those arrested included foreigners using fake Iraqi identification papers.

Three tonnes of TNT explosive, hundreds of rocket-propelled grenade launchers and at least three prepared car bombs were also found.

Hey man i tipped you to this story yesterday. What, is the HQ too good to use anonymous sources?

Posted by: on March 27, 2005 07:19 PM

hmmm... I missed your tip. Sorry.

Posted by: ace on March 27, 2005 10:05 PM

Sorry, I think this case should be adjudicated along the lines of American criminal law.

Clearly, this is profiling.

So, a hundred or so guys have all these explosives n'shit, fake ID's, blah blah.

How do we know their intent?

Several suspected militants were reported killed in the operation

It should have read "All the suspected militants were reported killed in the operation". Unfortunately, we play by the rules.

Funny how little of this kind of good news I hear from the PBS McNeil News Hour, yet they end very single broadcast with the pictures and names of dead American servicemen KIA.

Hey, didn't I read about this in the NY Times today?

Oh, wait a minute. My mistake. Had the wrong media outlet.

Never mind.
