It will save lives - and it will demoralize the Saddam bitter enders and Islamonazi jihadniks fighting to drive us out of Iraq. They're the ones now being placed on the defensive. Things are looking up over there.

Have they tried the Israeli "work accident" method, where they use an EMP generator to induce a current in the detonator and just blow the thing up from a safe distance?

The 1st Armored Division has captured 185 enemy personnel as part of Iron Grip. Brig. General Martin Dempsey said the roadside bomb or improvised explosive device is the weapon of choice for the cells. He called them psychological weapons and said they are meant to terrorize people, and that they pose as much danger to innocent civilians as to coalition soldiers. The general said he believes there is "an element of central planning, and central training, and central supplying" for improvised explosive devices. He added, though, that the number of attacks in Baghdad has dropped since Saddam's capture. Link to Quote
