It looks like our guys might be closing in on the IED bombers. Now, if only someone here would go after the Muslims buying hundreds of tracphones for the components used to make the bombs, we could make those roads safe for our guys and for the Iraqis.

Note to LEO: Achmed and Walid do not need 700 cell phones.
Drive them straight to the nearest airport and kick them the hell out, sans cellphones.
