November 2004 Baghdad Ambush[edit]
On November 20, 2004, elements of the 2nd battalion 162nd infantry regiment were ambushed while on patrol in Baghdad. A man and a woman were seen on a roof of a nearby building filming the patrol shortly before and during the ambush. Soldiers identified the female as Poitras and the man as Doctor Riyadh Al Adhadh. When question by Lt. Col. Dan Hendrickson, the 2nd battalion’s brigade commander, Poitras denied that she had any foreknowledge of the ambush and denied that she was son the roof filming it. Poitras had contacts with the 2nd Bn 162nd IR including it command. Brigade commander Lt. Col. Dan Hendrickson gave Poitras the benefit of the doubt but said had the identification been 100% he would have detained Poitras and turned her over for prosecution. In January 2006, Poitras emailed author John R. Bruning and admitted to him that she had in fact been on the roof filming the attack and was aware of the planned ambush. One of the soldiers on patrol that day stated he hoped Poitras “was dead in a hole right now” for her collaboration with the insurgents.[10
Back in the day, anyone observed on a rooftop, near a firefight, holding something on their shoulder, would be ID’ed as a sniper and dealt with accordingly. Just another example of how today’s overly-cautious rules of engagement are getting our troops killed.
Someone in the 162nd—or a overhead Apache gunship—could have done everyone a big favor back in 2004.
The left loves flipping 'words' in political ways. You're using 'collaboration' in the traditional way... which we all understand. But leftists have made this into one of the new 'cool' words... and they're exploiting it politically...
