Gunmen Kidnap Up to 50 Workers in Baghdad

BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) -- Gunmen in camouflage uniforms stormed the offices of a private security company Wednesday and kidnapped as many as 50 employees, police reported.

The attackers hit the al-Rawafid Security Co., a private Iraqi-owned business, at 4:30 p.m. and forced the workers into seven vehicles, including several white SUVs, said Interior Ministry Maj. Felah Al-Mohammedawi.

The company is located in the mixed Sunni-Shiite Zayouna neighborhood in eastern Baghdad.

It is a sign we're winning. The enemy is going for a scorched earth, and that's why they're going all out lately. They're doing as much damage as they can now, because their time is short.

Did you know that in World War II, some German soldiers actually managed to kill some American soldiers? Believe it or not, some German military units actually carried out attacks that were considered effective or succussful, given the goals of the individual military action.

Fascinating, and true.
