yeah. I like hearing about Marines kicking a$$. However, I wouldn't advocate our newspapers describing our tactics and procedures in the F-ing newspaper!! WTF, its not like they don't have people here who read the paper and pass that along to other cells..
I'd certainly agree - except that this isn't news to anyinsurgentRICO criminal in Iraq.All it is, is an example of what we can do - and there's no getting around the fact that we can't do everything everywhere every time that we did in this instance. But if they're worried about this tactic, they might make a different mistake next time - and get caught a different way.

I appreciate your sentiments believe me. But actually, I was at the official Marine Corps. web site, and picked this article up. I referenced the link directly the newspaper. If you wish to view OIF I/OIF II activities from the MC site it is at:
http://www.usmc.mil/marinelink/mcn2000.nsf/oif
During OIF I, he site was loaded with approved articles of all sorts. We have to remember, to put things in perspective. What is printed is already done. And truly I do not mean it as neither a boast, brag, nor to otherwise, but those that wish our military harm are in Iraq or would go to Iraq if they can get in, and therefore know more then we at home read about. All they have to do is pick up a cell phone and ask someone in any given town what is up on any given day.
