Multi-National Division – Center PAO

FORWARD OPERATING BASE KALSU, Iraq – Three separate weapons caches were found in areas south of Baghdad Nov. 3. Two of the caches were found by Concerned Local Citizens.

In Hawr Rajab, CLCs found a cache consisting of four 57 mm projectiles taped together. The citizens brought the ordnance to Paratroopers of Troop A, 1st Squadron, 40th Cavalry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team (Airborne), out of Fort Richardson, Alaska, at Entry Control Point 20 for safe disposal.

Local children in Hawr Rajab also contributed by pointing out the location of a cache to Paratroopers of Troop C, 1-40th Cav. Regt. The cache consisted of six 82 mm mortars.

In Arab Jabour, Soldiers from Company A, 1st Battalion, 30th Infantry Regiment, 2nd Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division discovered a weapons cache that consisted of a 155 mm mortar round, an OG-7V grenade and one rocket-propelled grenade propellant charge.

“The CLCs have added a dynamic to our offensive capabilities that have shaped the battlefield in ways that Coalition Forces alone could never have achieved,” said Capt. Chad Klascius, Troop A commander.

“Working with local nationals to create positive results and a safer environment is one of the most rewarding missions we’ve endeavored,” Klascius said. “Not only are we defeating al Qaeda, but the work of the local nationals gives us hope for the future of Iraq.”

An explosive ordnance disposal team destroyed all caches with controlled detonations.

Opponent of 'mega-mosque' receives chilling death threat on YouTube

A leading opponent of plans to build Europe's largest mosque in east London has seen a chilling "obituary" for him posted on the internet.

The film on video-sharing website YouTube is entitled In memory of Councillor Alan Craig and contains pictures of him with his wife and two young daughters.

The video was posted by abdullah1425 whose page on YouTube claims he is 23-year-old Muhammad from Stevenage. It has links to material relating to Tablighi Jamaat.

In one comment to another user posted on the site he said: "Jihad starts from the moment your mother gave birth to you."

There is a link directly to the page from the mosque's official website but a spokesman promised to take it down if anything "inappropriate" was found. ~snip~
