(CBS) Ten U.S. soldiers were injured, six or seven of them seriously, in a grenade and small arms attack at Camp Pennsylvania in northern Kuwait, reports CBS News Correspondent Mark Strassmann, who is traveling with the U.S. Army's 101st Airborne Division.
Strassmann said the grenades were rolled into two commanders' tents at the camp. When officers ran from the tents, they were hit by small arms fire.
"From our reports it appears that a terrorist penetrated Camp Pennsylvania, one or more terrorists threw two hand grenades into a tent," said George Heath, spokesman at Fort Campbell, home base of the 101st.
Strassman said three suspects were being held for questioning, two Kuwaitis who served a translators and an American soldier described as a black Muslim.
The injured soldiers were rushed to a field hospital but military officials had no word on their conditions, Lt. Cmdr. Charles Owens said from Camp As Sayliyah in Qatar.
The military did not identify the unit of the 101st that was in the camp but said it had been in Kuwait for about one week. Most of the division has entered southern Iraq.
Separately, Strassmann reported, an Iraqi rocket fired at U.S. forces in Kuwait was destroyed by Patriot missiles launched from nearby Camp New Jersey.
The terror and missile attack came as the U.S. assault on Iraq gained steam. American and British forces besieged the southern city of Basra and pounded Baghdad with impunity. But tough fighting loomed for coalition troops as they pressed deeper into Iraq.

John Walker Lindh, on his way to becoming a radical Islamist terrorist, joined the Moslem organization Tabligh i-Jamaat. Shoe Bomber Reid and the head of the cell that was planning to blow up the U.S. embassy in Paris also belonged to this organization. So, according to an article Wallaby found in the Indian press, does Louis Farrakhan.

A quick review of the UCMJ seems to indicate death is appropriate:

Oh please...don't give me a primer on NOI, Sunni, Shiite, Moorish Science Temple or for G-d's sake Christian Identity.
I can tell you more about all of those than you'd like to know.
Blacks who follow Nation of Islam do it because they like it's message and they belong to something....it's nothing but a gang like BGD but with stronger dogma.
People or Sheeple are responsibile for what they follow.
McVeigh followed Pete Peters because he liked the message. Blacks who follow Bow Tie Louis and all that White Devil crap do it for the same reason. It appeals to them.

"The disgrace is to him alone, and those who agree with him! At my work, there are several who are veterans, who are black, whom I would trust with my LIFE."You have it right : the problem is not his race. The problem is that he's a Muslim terrorist who happens to be a member of our military.
Our problem is that we look at all Muslims with Western eyes. They are not on any way shape OR form 'Western.' They're EASTERN.
Speaking as a Jew, I can tell you that we are taught that no matter what country we are in, we are Israel. The same applies to Muslims. The DIFFERENCE is that Israel is one small country, whereas the Arab Nation has bloated from ONE country - Saudi - to encompass dozens. The seems to be the agenda behind rabid Islam : to consume everything and make it part of the Arab Nation.
Jews are 'Westernized' because we're civilized and debate is genetic, IMO. Rabid Muslims - as opposed to those Muslims screaming for the destruction of Saddam without the media paying the least bit of attention - are still stuck in the 11th century because that was the last century in which freedom of thought was encouraged in their culture.
It ain't the race, it's the culture, and Louie the Loonie is a HERO to rabid Islamakazis everywhere.

Since when are people called muslim-american? I don't hear anyone being called catholic-american, methodist-american or baptist-american. Did I miss something? PC is going to kill us all.
FNC needs to clear this up quickly. Speculation by viewers can only make it worse. If he is NOI Black Muslim, just state it. If he is muslim and happens to be black, state that. Get it right, FNC, and stop being afraid.

Let's hope that the intelligence people are 'vigorously working with' this joker to find out who he's been hanging out with.
Personally I like General Patton's idea. Cut out his guts and use 'em to grease the tracks of our tanks.

Did someone give Rita Crosby a brain? She is asking about the timing of Scud attack and grenade attack in tent. Col. now explaining living arrangements...no excuses...no PCing. Discussing the choice of tents...the commanders of the unit. 'This is worse that combat casualty'...the thought of American infiltrator...will drive a wedge between soldiers...

Yes and the Black Caucus was meeting with attorneys to work on impeaching President Bush. THey are an extremist group and I will never be able to look at them again in the same way. The articles of impeachment were on the net and included the fact that we bombed Afghanistan, for crying out loud. Hardly anybody disagreed with our need to go over there - well, except for the extremists - which the Black Caucus has come to identify with.

SQUIRMING is what the HACKworth gang on Larry kling did. The reporter from Newsweek imbedded with the 101 did his best not to say it, but I got the impression that he really wanted to.

The Wahabi faction is the known radical military branch of Islam based in Saudi Arabia. They are the soldiers of Allah.
Militant puritanical Saudi Islamic sect founded by Muhammad ibn-Abd-al-Wahab (1703-1792), which regards all other sects as heretical. By the early 20th century it had spread throughout the Arabian peninsula it still remains the official ideology of the Saudi Arabian kingdom.

Hopefully...we have entirely too many barabarians in the gate...all in the name of tolerance and diversity et al....brought to us by the same folks who are now protesting this war in the streets.
We have lots of enemies and they are not all "over there".

Big big problem for all mudslimes in the US Armed Forces.
I'm sure their fellow soldiers have been a bit suspicious thus far.
Now, I wouldn't be surprised to see them turn on these guys real quick like.
