WASHINGTON, June 30, 2009 – Iraqi forces, aided by coalition advisors, arrested suspected terrorists June 28 in operations in Iraq, military officials reported.
Iraqi special operations forces and coalition advisors arrested a suspected terrorist in Baghdad. The suspect is believed to be the low-level commander of an insurgent group responsible for coordinating a local resident’s murder and an attack against Iraqi army forces.
Elsewhere, Iraq’s 7th Regional Commando Battalion, assisted by coalition advisors, arrested two suspected terrorists in Ninevah province. One of the men is suspected of being a financier for a terrorist cell, and the other is believed to be a cell operator. The cell is responsible for emplacing roadside bombs in the province, officials said.

Seems the military is ignoring the executive decree that there are no “terrorists”. These guys must be overseas contingency suspects who need their miranda rights and their habeas corpus protections.
Has the ACLU sent their contingent to Iraq yet?
Methinks the Iraqi forces will tell the ACLU where to stick it since they aren’t governed by US laws.
