American forces in Iraq have reportedly detained 61 people linked to al-Qaeda Iraq led by Jordanian terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

Spokesman of multinational forces in Iraq, General Rick Lynch said in a statement announced earlier today the detained al-Qaeda members were captured during an operation on a training camp near the city of Felluce (Fallaujah) on Monday.

The US forces conduct regular operations in the Al Anbar region, a popular area for sheltering many foreign insurgents.

Take some of them up in a helicopter, start asking questions, and push any of them out who refuses to answer.

61? That would just be a fraction of his top aids.

No.
Let the Iraqi's "question" them. You can bet "panties" will be the least of the detainees problems.

I think they should drop them off at the U.N building with their weapons.

"a training camp? they are able to setup and operate a training camp in Fallujah"

Yea. But they screwed up by sending off these maps to the terrorists’ parents.

One of the problems in the way we're "fighting" this damned "war".

No, it's not a problem. You're not in charge. Get over it.

The Sunni are turning them in like crazy. If you noticed, we've been releasing prisoners lately, a lot of them the kids of tribe members who have decided to join the government. I think this was part of the tradeoff.
