No dead bad guys....so Fox reporter wants to declare this a failure..
No TV--Is the operation over?
He is blowing this..
How would he know whether or not there are "dead bad guys"?
I have my doubts this was done to capture a HVT or wipe out the insurgency in Salah Ad-Din. I suspect the main reason it was done was to convince the Shia masses that their army and the Americans are fighting the enemy and they don't have to act on their own or join up with a pro-Iranian militia. If the Shia and Sunnis have confidence in the Iraqi Army the war will be won. If not the Sunnis will rely on the insurgents to protect them and the Shia will rely on the pro-Iranian militias to protect them and Iraq would fall apart. That is why Iraqi confidence in the military and security apparatus is the most important issue in Iraq today.
