Baghdad Deputy Governor Killed
KFOR ^

Posted on 10/31/2004 11:18:25 PM PST by Arkinsaw

BAGHDAD, Iraq Baghdad's governor says gunmen have killed his number-two man. He says the deputy governor (Hatim Kamil) was on his way to work Monday when he was assassinated in a drive-by shooting. Another Iraqi official says two of the man's bodyguards were wounded in the attack.

Insurgents have killed dozens of Iraqi politicians and government workers in recent months in a bid to destabilize the country's reconstruction.

This is another terrorist attack on our election.

The terrorists know that they will have a really tuff time getting at Americans. Next best thing is to stir things up in Baghdad and get the killing of American Soldiers on the news in America.

This is why we are taking the fight to them.

I believe that he, like OBL, took a hike during one of the many "negotiations".

That's what I'm thinking -- and hoping, and desiring.

Go GW!

Thanks to all who are there. We pray for you all to have everything you need, including good leaders, good comrades, good food, sound sleep (fool's request? but when I see our guys sleeping on the roads, my heart goes out to them . . . sleep is, after all, a weapon!).

IOW, bottom line, not forgotten, and very much appreciated.

Little from CENTCOM yet today, which usually means the troops are seriously occupied.

Good hunting, Troops!
