Just a side issue here (and I am sure someone else has mentioned it on another thread)- but could this attack not have been by insurgents but by well organized criminals trying to get the dinars the troops were delivering? This was an atypical attack for the insurgents. Not their usual fire a mortar round or two and run. Perhaps the motivator of greed was the driving force behind this attack? Kind of a reverse "Kelly's Hereos" scenerio.

I think I heard that all dinars will be worthless as of tomorrow or something.

I'm sorry ... we had the new dinars in the convoy. My bad.

Maybe we alerted the Iraqi cops that Wells Fargo was en route.

To see if they'd leak it to the robbers.
