In Dojima, police raided the homes of alleged Saddam loyalists they suspected of hiding caches of arms, including rocket-propelled grenades - the weapon of choice in many recent ambushes.

The operation, named after a rattlesnake, kicked off at about 2 a.m. Sunday, with officers simultaneously raiding as many sites as possible.

And?

Did they find anything?

If I was a reporter, I would think to include that information.

"We go in with such overwhelming combat power that they won't even think about shooting us," Lt. Col. Mark Young said earlier.

I like the sound of that. Godspeed!

These are NOT just Bathist!!!! they are soldiers!!!! in civies!!

It is somewhat ridiculous to pay former Iraqi soldiers, especially the Republican Guard troops.  They should all be in POW camps until we get things under control and find Saddam. Here's a suggestion: Try to "recruit" them, when they come in and you can prove they were Republican Guard Troops, arrest them and put them in Detention Camps or POW Camps. We have to get all those soldiers who took off their uniforms and hid thier weapons under their gowns (or whatever they call them) OFF THE STREET!!

We need to knock that sucker down while we're in the area, too. A little psychological warfare.

My question is what the H*ll took them so long to at least do this? We should have been going after these animals with everything we had, since day one. I would love to know who stopped our soldiers from doing this to begin with.
