"Intelligence estimate warns on quick Iraq pullout"
By Bill Gertz
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
February 3, 2007

ARTICLE SNIPPET: "A new National Intelligence Estimate on Iraq warns that pulling U.S. troops out of the country too soon would lead to a collapse of the Iraqi military, outside intervention and the creation of safe havens for al Qaeda terrorists.

An unclassified summary of the 90-page estimate, "Prospects for Iraq's Stability: A Challenging Road Ahead," stated that U.S. and allied troops "remain an essential stabilizing element in Iraq.""

Title:
FOUR AL-QAIDA, FOREIGN FIGHTER TERRORISTS KILLED; 29 SUSPECTED TERRORISTS DETAINED
Release Date:

Release Number:

Description:
BAGHDAD, Iraq -Coalition Forces killed four terrorists and detained 29 suspected terrorists during raids targeting foreign fighters and the al-Qaida in Iraq network Saturday morning.
During a raid in Fallujah, Coalition Forces targeted a terrorist with known ties to a foreign fighter network. As ground forces approached the targeted building, three armed terrorists attempted to fire on them.
Coalition Forces killed the three armed terrorists and detained 10 suspected terrorists.

West of Tarmiyah, Coalition Forces targeted terrorists with ties to the al-Qaida in Iraq network. Upon approaching the objective, one suspected terrorist began advancing towards Coalition Forces.

Coalition Forces told the man to get on the ground. The man complied at first and then got back up and charged toward Coalition Forces with what appeared to be a grenade. Coalition Forces used proper escalation of force to mitigate the threat.
Upon searching the man, Coalition Forces determined the man was charging at them with a rock in his hand instead of a grenade. The man died from his wounds. Coalition Forces detained eight suspected terrorists during this raid.

During an operation in Tarmiyah, five suspected terrorists were detained. Intelligence reports indicated that the suspects are involved in al-Qaida in Iraq kidnapping operations, improvised explosive devices emplacement and foreign terrorist safe house activities. Coalition Forces also uncovered a weapons cache consisting of numerous AK-47s, several pistols, wire spools, 60mm mortar rounds and a pressure plate.

Four suspected terrorists operating a foreign fighter safe house were detained in Ramadi.

In Kalar, two suspects with ties to foreign fighter facilitation were detained.

Coalition Forces are working diligently to eliminate foreign terrorists and al-Qaida supporters who are trying to hijack the development and building of a new stable and peaceful Iraq.
