CAMP TAJI, Iraq — A phone call to the Adhamiyah Joint Security Station and residents of the eastern Baghdad district helped foil an attempted car bombing July 16.
The Adhamiyah JSS received the call, providing the location of a possible vehicle-borne improvised explosive device in the area. Elements of the 3rd Battalion, 1st Brigade, 11th Iraqi Army Division and 3rd Squadron, 7th Cavalry Regiment investigated the area.
When the troops arrived at the scene, approximately 30 residents identified a parked vehicle as a possible car bomb. The explosives were removed from the vehicle and safely detonated without injury or damage to the community.
“The Iraqi citizens took ownership of their future by alerting the Coalition Forces to this potentially disastrous car bomb,” said Lt. Col. Jeffery Broadwater, commander of 3-7th Cavalry. “This is what it will take to ensure a peaceful Iraq, free from terror and oppression.”
That is great news! Good to see the Iraqis taking the risk of reporting terrorist actions.
good news
No, no, this cannot be. According to Rep. Jim Moran (D) of Virginia, who just yesterday was on PMSNBC making this claim, he says that almost all Iraqi citizens want U.S. Soldiers to be killed so that we leave Iraq. There’s no way that Iraqi citizens are helping U.S. soldiers - no way /sarc.
Yeh, like we'd see this on the mass media news. LMAO
There are two enemies in Iraq: Anti-coalition and Anti-Iraqi.
There is another enemy in the US: The mainstream media.
OH THIS IS AWFUL!!!
Now the Americans have so corrupted Iraq that neighbor is turning in neighbor, just like in NAZI GERMAN!
Oh, the horror! We have truly become the Nazis! We are evil!
(/s)
I thought I’d tell you how this will be told on Hardball and the Daily KOS....
Don’t forget the second enemy in America - those in Congress who will work for the enemy we fight abroad in order to try and destroy President Bush.
Touche!
Just more good news most Americans will never hear from the MSM.
God Bless.
It’s hard to forget when the dims are constantly reminding us on a daily basis.
What do you expect from an idiot who cannot even spell his own last name? He keeps putting an”a” where the “o” goes.
LOL. Fitting, very fitting.
