Terrorist Releases more Details about Mosul Attack

Source: Al-Ezah | 10:19:58 AM

One Terrorist is claiming to have gotten ahold of more information on the Mosul attack. He claims that the attack was carried out by a young martyr, approximately 24 years of age. This young man had worked in the Mosul base before and was able to gather intelligence about the base and important details regarding when and what would be the best target for an attack. The Terrorist then goes on to say that he is not positive, but he believes that the attack was more then likely carried out by using C4 Explosives attached to the marytr's body. As the young man entered the tent he set off the explosives.

MACHINE TRANSLATION

In information that came in some of the sites on the Internet Ansar al-Sunna Army declared while I mentioned that it is the clarification of an appendix that the champion martyr who executed Mosul operation he a young man from Mousel City sons aged 24 years it married a month ago approximately and it could work inside base of American Alghzlani in Mosul since about the two months and it was throughout this period supplying the army with information about the forces centralization sites inside the Al-Qaeda and the ammunition storage sites and other and the coordinates of those sites until their bombardment takes place and according to those information the bombardment of the base has taken place 48 time through these months as had a dangerous role in the guidance about the customers Walmtaounin with the occupation forces and the workers inside the base from workers and Iraqi contractors and Turks and Americans and others and that has facilitated the execution of the Allah's command in 37 of the traitors the customers inside this rule and the statement mentioned that the attack executor was making inside the restaurant and that it carried out the preparation of by the explosives himself and exploded himself in the lunch date totally while the soldiers lines were arriving at the restaurant to the eating this and the clarification has promised spreading videotape of the operation soon and on the other side the data have conflicted regarding the dead numbers then while the Ministry of Defence declares that

Others remember a probability that it plastic explosives with severe explosion and that their hiding is possible have been used in the attack in the clothes but it until with this proposition, the intensity of the explosion as came that needs a large amount of those plastic explosives and if it was proved a correctness that they are that first time approximately that this kind is used in them of the explosives in an operation in Iraq

Now a reporter on the John Gambling radio show is saying that the suicide bomber used an explosive that was 'more easily concealed' than the usual stuff, apparently.

The Islamofascist website that is claiming responsibility reportedly says a video of the bombing will be 'released.'

Mosul blast 'suicide attack'
22/12/2004 17:19 - (SA)

http://www.news24.com/News24/World/Iraq/0,,2-10-1460_1639214,00.html


Washington - The powerful blast on Tuesday at a US military dining tent in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul which killed 26 people was a suicide attack, ABC News reported on Wednesday.

"A backpack found by investigators at the site and remnants of a torso indicate that the attack was caused by a suicide bombing," the US television station quoted unidentified sources as saying.

US President George W Bush on Tuesday referred to a "rocket attack" on the mess tent at the US military base in Mosul.

A top US commander in Iraq, Lieutenant-General Thomas Metz, said on Wednesday that experts were investigating what caused the blast, which left at least 14 US soldiers among the dead.

Asked by CNN television whether a bomb may have been planted in the dining hall, Metz said: "Well, it's certainly a possibility. And that's the reason we have our experts up there.

"They will be able to figure out exactly what calibre munition and type of indirect fire, if it was indirect," he said.

"If it was a bomb, I think they'll be able to figure out the size, the kinds of materials that were put into it.

"But our experts are there right now doing that investigation."

The al-Qaeda linked Army of Ansar al-Sunna on Tuesday claimed responsibility for the Mosul attack in a statement attributed to the group on an Islamist website.

The right answer for this one is for Syria's Assad to buy the farm. A MOAB right on the palace.

Wow, a Homicide Bomber... that's scary.

Right inside or next to the mess tent... not good.

Troops should avoid massing together as much as possible. Remember Lebanon.

Friend of mine stationed in Mosul emailed me this morning, they think it was one of the Iraqi National Guardsmen who was the suicide bomber. They are in among the US troops everywhere. They seem to think this guy infiltrated the Iraqi guard and went in with a suicide belt on.

They've only got to get lucky once, we've got to be right 100% of the time. Damned shame. I hope we get them and "bring them to justice"

How is it that an 80-year-old Grandmother can't get near an airplane in any American airport, with even so much as a nail clipper without being scanned, X-rayed, dog-sniffed, and strip-searched, but an Iraqi National suicide bomber can casually wander into a military mess hall strapped with explosives and shrapnel?
