Civilian casualties are occurring, despite much discretion being used on the firing. I saw three MLRS rockets hit targets downtown today (June 20) and more were fired. Watched the video feed from the TOC as some of them hit. The targeting was perfect. Our guys had cleared out the civilians, but the enemy starts shootouts using civilians as cover. American officers are trying to account for civilian casualties; media is asking and command is still unable to answer, which of course looks like a cover-up. From what I see on the ground, there is no cover-up. The number is unknown but certainly there must be some.

Thanks. Been viewing all the associated postings regarding operation Arrowhead-Ripper. Prayers for all our troops engaged in this activity. Obviously as goons are being killed in Diyala province similiar actions are taking place in other areas.
Many of the goons that where forced to flee from al Anbar during 2005 and set up house in and around the capital, then forced to flee to Diyala and attempt creating another safe hold, are now finally going to meet their maker. By all indications a few thousand of them shall perish in the weeks to come.

Thanks for the ping, Ma. They’re taking names and kicking a$$.

The command should just tell the media they are using the blindfolds for a huge pinata party and to just go away before they get hit with a stick.
