(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.

A primary problem, in my view, is with the popular attitude towards America of the countries where the Muslim faith is predominate. Often, the population is simply anti-American. Secondary to that, often these same countries are third-world ghettos that inherently place little value on human life and blame American "decadence" for their predicament. Combined, we have a preponderance of Muslim terrorists, or rather, terrorists that happen to be Muslim.
Regarding the KKK, while their atrocities may have not stained religion, they've certainly stained the South's reputation.
I believe this Muslim/terrorism issue is similar: guilt by proximity.

Sheesh. Already? I guess I should feel vindicated, but these pukes stretch the bounds of disgust. I thought it would take until at least tomorrow.

The US govt normal policy of Political Correctness has been hoisted on its on petard. They stated that the newsmedia would be free to report w/o exception what the embedded reporters reported. In this case it was a British reporter who apparently did not realize that truth telling is unconstitutional in this country if it does not conform to the liberal myths we must live with daily. In any event, I just saw this man on TV he looks very black and according to the media he has an arabic name. Of course, I probably am blind and I know the reporters would not know arabic name if they heard one, so by the morning, he will be white and probably had a white van.

It's not just in the military where people of the Islamic faith are creating problems. Where there's smoke, there's Muslims.

I hope you're right about CBS catching hell and that more publicity will attach to it -- I intend to follow this story. Y'all might be interested to know that, since I last posted (mentioning that CBS radio referred to traitor as a muslim), continuing rotation radio reports now do not mention the muslim aspect. It's absolutely sickening!! WorldNetDaily reported it and had a backup report to Strassman's initial report.
To: TLBSHOW
The democrats are asking to see all the records of who let Sami in. It's a good question. Imagine what harm a terrorist in the White House could do.

Will check it out. Thanks.

No mention of the US soldier's race or religious persuasion. That would be too unsettling to the Leftist paradigm.

"Well, historically it is BLACKS who have caused all the problems in the country, right?"Are you asking me or telling me? It is YOU connecting your own phantom dots.
" So it only stands to reason, using your logic...that it should be BLACKS, not simply Muslims, that ought to be discharged."
My "logic"??
Black Muslim, Chinese Muslim, Eskimo Muslim -- MUSLIM, Sparky.
Do yourself a favor -- fly non-stop to Switzerland and set up an appointment with a fleet of psychiatric specialists observing and assessing your condition 24 hours around-the-clock.
If you're lucky, maybe ONE of the doctors will be MUSLIM.
