BAGHDAD, Iraq -- A mosque raided by security forces in southern Baghdad contained a workshop to rig suicide car bombs, with seven vehicles ready for terror attacks, an Iraqi Defense Ministry official said Sunday.
National Guard forces raided the Sunni Muslim Al-Yassen Mosque in the Baghdad area of Abu Dshir on Saturday, said Gen. Saleh Sarhan. In addition to the seven cars, guardsmen found 30 rocket-propelled grenades, high-powered rifles, mortars and remote control detonators, Sarhan said.
He said the mosque leader and 18 other people were detained.
Anti-U.S. guerrillas used about 60 mosques in Fallujah, west of Baghdad, to stockpile weapons and provide cover during a U.S.-led offensive in the city earlier this month, the U.S. military said. One of the mosques was described as a general arms depot capable of equipping guerrillas across much of Iraq.

Janet Reno and the BATF didn't think religious "compounds" were so protected.
I doubt if you could flush if you wanted to. There's no TP either. Not even a Sears and Sawbucks or Monkey Wards catalog.
This is very good news. The fact that one single mosque was producing such a high volume of a somewhat limited item, chances are good this is a substantial percentage of their production.
This was a good hit.
" Not even a Sears and Sawbucks or Monkey Wards catalog."
So you are telling me that the chance of there being a Muslim Victoria Secrets catalog is pretty slim....
I would imagine it is. The catalogs in the privy aren't there so you can look at the pictures though. If you lucked out, you might find some Islamist screed to wipe your backside with, otherwise you'd be SOL.
Well I'll bet darned.
bet=be.
"detonate on site"
And PLEASE let the cleric and other "detainees" remain on site while detonating.
BTTT!
Janet Reno and the BATF didn't think religious "compounds" were so protected.<<<
The actions Janet (BARF!) Reno took were, at least, better suited for a mosque than law-abiding American cultists.
Level it.
Their version of the church van?
and anyone who thinks otherwise is either very naive or a total MORON. Ooops, I think I just insulted some big folks in the government, but I won't mention any names so I don't get the bots riled up.
LOL. Lemme see . . . the first one?
Did we date in high school?
Glad to see you finally remembered me!
Should read - "...18 other people were detonated!"
