4 terrorists killed while planting roadside bombs
Multi-National Force Iraq ^ | August 7 2006

Posted on 08/07/2006 8:55:20 PM PDT by jmc1969

Four terrorists were killed after air surveillance from Multi-National Division – Baghdad’s 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 101st Airborne Division, observed 13 men burying explosive devices on a rural roadway along the Euphrates River in western Yusufiyah province at approximately 10:15 a.m. today.

The men were observed digging approximately five holes and emplacing explosive devices during an hour-long period beginning at approximately 9:15 a.m.

After planting the first explosive device, eight of the 13 men left the scene. Five others were observed digging four more holes and burying explosive devices at intervals along the road using a blue bongo truck to carry the munitions.

Air attack aviation engaged the truck, destroying it and an estimated four terrorists. One individual had walked away moments prior to the engagement and escaped the explosion.

4 dead is better than none. But I hope that the surveillance ID's the other future corpses.

Hopefully the others will be able to collect their 72 Helen Thomas lookalikes very soon.

If anyone sees this reported on TV please let FR know. Either they (TV) know about these stories and refuse to publish them (but they publish the US body count), or they don't know about stories like these. Either way, it's astonishing that this stuff is being censored.

How right you are.

Let's face it.MSM news is mostly watched by Liberals.Liberals hate the war and any chance of winning it.

The network news just caters to it's audience by only showing them what the audience wants.

If they showed successful operations by our military,it would piss off the Liberal viewers,and they would lose even more market share.
