Four Iraqis were arrested early Monday after soldiers found a load of explosives planted under an oil pipeline in northern Iraq that carries crude oil to Turkey, the Iraqi Army said.About 330 pounds of TNT were discovered under a stretch of the pipeline in the al-Kisk area, about 50 miles west of Mosul, said Col. Mohammed Ahmed, a spokesman for the 3rd Iraqi Army division. The explosives were removed and safely destroyed without injuries, he said.
Four suspects - all Iraqis - were arrested nearby, Ahmed said.
Mosul lies 225 miles northwest of Baghdad.
This could eliminate a lot of people. We will have to wait.
Very good... good catch by our guys ... good post by you.
They were all Iraqui’s-—what kind of Iraqui’s?
Did you read about the explosives that were found in the walls of a girls’ school that is being built in Iraq? The bombs are courtesy of Al Queda. But, of course, Al Queda is not in Iraq....

Thank you, God! Last week, we prayed that He would expose wicked plots and bring them to naught!
Well, not until the evil Bush invaded, for the purpose of taking their oil, and enriching his greedy friends. < / stupid commieRAT mode >
Speaking of pipelines, the United States (together with UK and Israel if possible) shoud bomb and destroy Iran’s pipelines, refinery, storage tanks, and nuclear sites. This should be done yesterday. This would neuter Iran, which is suppporting terrorists - even sending weapons to Iraq to kill U.S. soldiers - and force regime change. It would also send a crystal clear message to rogue regimes such as North Korea, Syria, Cuba, and now Venezuela. And it would remind the world that the U.S. is the only superpower on the globe. Liberals go pound sand.
Our “allies” depend upon that oil. Not likely we would take that kind of unpopular action.
Check this out:)
Remember the images of people leaping to their death from the World Trade Center? We’re in a war, not a popularity contest.
Were they caught in the act? Why plant explosives and not immediately set them off?
Iraqis caught and captured by Iraqis. Good news.
Great catch. The people of Iraq continue to stand up.
Oh yeah, the people of Iran - as opposed to their government, not to mention opposed to their government - would REALLY thank us for doing something that stupid.
Good news certainly.,but what tribe ,sect or group of Iraqui’s were attempting to destroy Iraqs pipeline and what was their reasoning?
It would seem that if the Iraqui’s want the US out of Iraq,all they have to do is stop fighting. We will gladly leave.
Better headline would have been:
Four Iraqis were executed...
Iran infiltrates its trained terrorist saboteurs to destroy Iraq's ability to earn revenue via exported oil, this could very well be another example, however Iran's Shi'ite henchmen continue earning billions for their brand of jihadic terrorism through uninterrupted sales of Iranian crude oil and natural gas.
It's time the shoe was placed on the foot of the economic terrorist disruptor, Iran. Scores of American troops have been murdered by Iranian agents of terror, plus the thousands of Iraqi victims of Iranian terrorism. Enough is enough!
