BAGHDAD Multi-National Division-Baghdad Soldiers were given a gift when a sniper walked into their control during a small arms engagement in West Rashid, Jan. 22.
Black Lions, of Company B, 1st Battalion, 28th Infantry Regiment, were hunting for three men believed to have been firing at them, when two men attempting to flee the cordon entered a house occupied by MND-B Soldiers.
One of the men was positively identified at the scene as a known sniper, while the other is an alleged extremist.
The suspected sniper and extremist were taken to a Coalition Detention Facility for further questions.
This is part of Multi-National Division-Baghdad Soldiers on going offensive operations in support of Operation Phantom Phoenix, to kill or capture al-Qaeda and Shia/Sunni extremists to deny them rest and sanctuary in Baghdad and the surrounding rural areas.

I’m glad you brought that up, because it prompted me to wonder: Do you think that if a terrorist was captured in this country whom we had good reason to believe was harboring vital information about, let’s say, a gang of six plotting to wipe out McCain’s family, that old “my friend” Johnny Boy would acquiesce to a little waterboarding?

This may be the sniper who killed a Captain and a Major of ours last month.

while the other is an alleged extremist.
I am so sick of this PC bullsh*t.
Time to turn this alleged extremist over to the alleged Iraqi authorities so that they can allegedly execute his alleged ass.

Your remark would be funny if the matters weren’t so serious. I do agree with you.

Of course, the law and their opinions only apply to others, the unwashed, the stupid, the government dependents, etc. Hey when it comes to them and theirs, where is the wires, the finger nail pliers, the hot pokers etc.
