| BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: Security forces of the Baghdad Operations Command dismantled a “terrorist” network in the eastern Baghdad area of Zayouneh on Sunday, according to a statement published on the BOC web site. “A force from the federal police 1st Division dismantled a terrorist network of the self-styled Islamic State of Iraq (ISI) in Zayouneh, where it seized a large weapons cache inside a house,” read the BOC statement. “The cache contained 10 Kalashnikov assault rifles, 10 improvised explosive devices (IEDs), a mortar shell of 82 mm. caliber, a bag of iron balls, two bags of TNT, two plastic charges, eight thermal bombs, one bag of BKC, 200 kilograms of ammonia nitrates and two flags of the so-called ISI,” it added. “It also contained 20 hand-grenades, 50 nine-volt batteries, a pair of scales, two guns of 9 mm. caliber, and 25 timers,” the statement read. The BOC had revealed that security agencies seized a large weapons cache in Zayouneh in addition to several explosive belts ready for detonation. |

| #2 It says they dismantled a terrorist network but as far as the article reports, it just captured a weapons cache - which can be easily replaced. Re. gorb's comment - no wood chippers. But speedy and public trials, sentencing, and execution (literal or figurative) would be in order, and I have not seen much of it. |

| #1 Finish the job on national TV by throwing them feet-first into a wood chipper and you may have something the rest of them will understand. |
