The news just keeps getting better ping...
We know who'd win this round...hands down.
Iraqi and Coalition forces press operations against the Mahdi Army in Baghdad and Basrah despite the cease-fire signed with the Mahdi Army in Sadr City. The Iraqi Army has expanded its operations in Basrah province to the east just along the Iranian border, while eleven Mahdi Army fighters have been captured during operations in Baghdad over the past 24 hours. Iraqi soldiers and police, backed by US and British advisers, have expanded Operation Knights' Assault to the eastern town of Abu Al Khasib... sited on Highway 6 at the border crossing with Iran at Shalamcheh. The Iranian city of Shalamcheh is the main forward operating base for the Ramazan Corps's southernmost command. The Ramazan Corps is the Qods Force command assigned to direct operations inside Iraq. Weapons, fighters, and cash smuggled across the border into Basrah would pass through Abu Al Khasib. The Iraqi Army has been expanding its operations along the Iranian supply routes in the South during the month of May. After clearing the Mahdi Army and other Iranian-backed militias from Basrah, operations have expanded into Az Zubayr and Al Qurnah.
BTTT!
Great news!
We would have long ago been where we are now in this conflict had the miserable self serving liberals in this country simply gotten behind the effort. Instead their constant claims of “we have lost” and “the soldiers are murderers” and “we need to leave NOW” have given aid and comfort to the enemy and prolonged the conflict as well as cost the lives of more of our young heroes.
One can only hope growing numbers of people from all ends of the political spectrum and otherwise are now aware of this web site. It has been rather informative since it’s early conception. All those in my family that might indulge as well as friends and associates where informed by me a long time ago this is where one goes for accurate reporting of affairs in Afghanistan and Iraq.
