Yea, a few things jumped out at me.
"The Untouchables" were assured in advance they need fear no investigation into their methods to bring Zarqawi to summary justice.
LOL Nobody in DOD would believe that.
While officially Israel denies any presence in Iraq, four Mossad assassins were assigned to serve with the unit.
Yea right.
"The Untouchables" also used thermal-imaging equipment to probe the "rat holes" the terror chief used as he flitted around Baghdad and other cities.
Thermal cameras can only see the ambient temperature of the exterior of an object. They can’t look into or through objects. Even clear glass looks like a metal plate because IR only measures the temperature of the outside of the glass and converts it to an image.
But the main reason I suspect the article is that the first rule of Special Forces is no one talks about missions in this detail. It would directly put other units in jeopardy by revealing tactics.
...or just give them 10-12 different stories, each more elaborate about the mole high up in the organization, spies in Al-Jazeera, secret technology, psychics, solar flares, astrology, reverse video images on computers that let people look IN as opposed to looking out,
bwahahahahaha... or just a W.A.G.
...what a dream assignment.
Got some papers for you...Uh you've got the call to report to the "A" Team.
Equipment- whatever you want
Rules of Engagement.... none.
Happy Hunting.
