| US forces conducted air and ground strikes against a suspected meeting of Al-Qaeda militants south of Baghdad on Monday, killing 18 of them, the military said. "Coalition forces conducted air strikes on a known Al-Qaeda meeting location south of Baghdad that killed 15 terrorists," the military said. "Later in the operation, ground forces killed three terrorists loading a vehicle carrying an anti-aircraft weapon." Seven other suspected militants believed responsible for kidnappings or helping to bring in foreign fighters were detained, the military added. The raid also uncovered several weapons caches and a second anti-aircraft gun. Another individual was detained in a separate raid north of Baghdad, near Taji. |

| #5 I think it depends on what the MSM thinks would sell more papers: baby ducks or enemy casualties. |

| #3 Let's just hope the Sunnis stick to the side they've chosen and not switch over to another alliance as soon as the threat is diminished. |

| #2 That sort of actionable intel means we have broken the code with Sunnis who are tired of AQ's indiscriminat killing. I hope this is not an isolated incident. |
