Marines...recovered useful documents such as identification cards, birth certificates and countless pictures of Iraq's former dictator. Each piece of information allowed a "connect-the-dots" map of what kind of enemy the Marines are facing.
"The 'intel' we've found were former military, friends of Saddam that participated in functions standard in this area, and a network of who's involved in terrorist and criminal attacks.."
Some of the intelligence has come from searching bodies of dead enemy fighters.
"If the enemy only knew of the will of our Marines they would've given up by now.."

Our brave Marines in Fallujah, written April 14....(unlike what we read in the press on April 14).

Then bomb the living daylights out of the whole place. The arabs don't have to love us, but they WILL respect us.

"What we've discovered on the northern end of town are still people seemingly loyal to Saddam," Okay, this is the northern end of town. Everybody look into the laser designator, smile and say, "Saddam."
Thanks. That's a wrap.

This sort of validates what Wretchard is writing over at
The Belmont Club. For all the news of enemy ambushes and whatnot, the news that five Marines died in an engagement that saw the destruction of an entire enemy battalion up on the Syrian border suggests a wider secret war that is going on. For the Marines' part, they appear to be using every scrap of intelligence, no matter how insignificant, towards the end of painting a picture of
fedayeen Command, Control, and Communications.
Wretch suggests, as I do in my blog, that the enemy is being set up for a counterstroke.
Watch the skies.
Be Seeing You,
Chris

Bump!

How about Syrian and Iranian infiltrators in the group?
Bevaquia (Foxnews) says he has heard that Syria sent about 1000 trained fighters into Iraq six months before we invaded.

To: Ragtime Cowgirl
Some homes that Solis' Marines swept had pictures of Saddam hanging on their walls, telling the Marines some locals still had some reverence for the fallen dictator.What parallel universe do these people live in?
Surely they saw this?
To: Ernest_at_the_Beach
Being "trained" by an Arab military isn't something to brag about when in the company of real soldiers.
