CAR BOMB ATTACK THWARTED

Security forces have arrested two men outside a mosque in the Iraqi city of Kufah after finding two cars laden with bombs.

The arrests came amid warnings from clerics that Saddam Hussein loyalists or al-Qaeda members will strike over the next two days.

The men were arrested outside the Masjed al-Kufah mosque, 180 kilometres south of Baghdad.

"We found the seats (in one car stopped on Sunday) were not well designed and had new covers. This raised our suspicion and we searched the seats and found them filled with bombs," a policemen said.

"Yesterday we seized the same kind of car filled with bombs," he said, adding that that car was driven by two men from Yemen.

The two men detained on Monday were from the southern Iraqi city of Basra, he said.

I'm so tired of these wild-eyed ragheads from out-of-country wandering into Iraq to save the Iraqis from the American infidels............

Makes you wonder where these a**wipes were when their Muslim brothers and sisters were being tortured, murdered, raped, and generally terrorized by their own government for decades..........

Unfortunately, nobody will every get credit for all the terrorist attacks that have been thwarted. We can prevent a thousand horrible atrocities on the scale of 9/11, but if one attack gets carried out successfully, there will be no shortage of people calling for Bush's head.

That bears repeating because it's so unfortunately true.

Good news bump

And this today from Drudge:

[Proud Legions]

Agree.

[Proud Legions]

And they seem to be very good at squeezing! I heard a report that every one of the terrorists they have captured so far for the last bombing has talked.

Good grief, glad they are not interrogating me...I have a feeling it is more than just good cop/bad cop questioning!

[Proud Legions]

What do you know about the EXPRESS?

Without knowing the mag, my first inclination is to not believe it...too many just throwing any reason out there we shouldn't have gone in.

They come to fight the westerners that are associated with the evil Judeo-Christian virtues of truth and respect for life, liberty and private property.

[Peach]

Good point. I don't know anything about the Express.

This should be a huge story, if true.

RADIATION TIMEBOMB

I could swear there was something about high radiation a few weeks ago. Is this new or is London just now noticing it?

[Peach]

I heard something about high radiation in some portion of Iraq about two months ago, but don't remember the details.

Bingo!

[Proud Legions]

Sad, but so true.

[Republic]

We need to pray, Peach. This is just un-nerving stuff. HORRID.

I am so PROUD of this thwarted bombing!!!

This is such good news, GOD BLESS THE PEACE SEEKERS IN IRAQ and GOD KEEP OUR TROOPS and the BRITISH TROOPS and ALL OTHER TROOPS THERE TO HELP THIS NATION ATTAIN DEMOCRACY SAFE and COMFORTED and SUCCESSFUL!!!

[Peach]

I am so proud of our beloved troops. They are sacrificing so much and deserve all our support.

[skinkinthegrass]

No Miranda rights in Iraq....:-)

Hmmm..We have some questions to ask of You...

[Sacajaweau]

Dog: Thanks for the posting!!

[RandallFlagg]

Perhaps the perps can be "induced" to provide some information.

Break out the needlenose pliers and the blowtorch!!!

[TN4Liberty]

So anyone with any kind of accent is getting extra scrutiny from an Iraqi people who don't want foreign troublemakers.

Surely not. That would be profiling.
