"At Least 80 Killed in Raid on Insurgent Camp in Iraq"

Game laws more liberal in Iraq than New Hampshire, apparently.

Way beyond permissible bag limit here.

"an Iraqi girl and injured another child at a primary school"

But, but, don't they love their children too? (s/c)

I hope we don't learn later that the Iraqi police killed a village filled with Sunni women and children. I don't put it past any tribe over there to wipe out the families of their denominational enemies.

The battle began at about 11 a.m., as members of the Interior Ministry's First Police Commando Battalion, acting on tips from residents of the area, approached the insurgent camp across a flat expanse, Major Goldenberg said.

More evidence that the tipping point has been reached, and the Iraqis just aren't putting up with the "insurgent's" crap anymore.

Speaking of which, when is the NYTimes going to figure out that "insurgents" are not terrorists from other countries?

Along with munitions, training manuals, prepared car bombs, suicide-bomb vests and computers, the Iraqi and American forces discovered identification papers that showed some of the fighters had come from outside Iraq, Major Goldenberg said, though he declined to identify the nationalities of the foreign insurgents. Iraqi officials said the foreigners mostly came from Arab countries, and a written statement early today from the Interior Ministry said an Algerian had been arrested.

But Gen. Rashid Flaiyeh, the head of the police commandos in Salahuddin Province, where the battle took place, said the bodies of Filipino and Arab men were also among the dead guerrillas. "I was surprised there were men from the Philippines," he said on the state-run television network Iraqiya. "The Arab countries are sending fighters into Iraq because they want to destroy our democratic movement."

Good news indeed

I was hoping to read "The US Air Force dropped a dozen so called "daisy cutter" bombs on a known Terrorist training camp today, DNA samples were recovered after the fires had died out. Next of kin being sought. In a related story, large numbers of people were observed by stealth UAVs crossing into Iran"

But, this is just fine.
