Hib Hib Hit Bags 50 & Weapons
2004-12-13
U.S. soldiers and Iraqi police detained more than 50 Iraqis in several raids targeting insurgents in the Baqouba area, north of Baghdad, the military said Sunday. Two raids were conducted on Saturday in Hib Hib, a town about 40 miles northeast of Baghdad, in a "search for known insurgents," according to a statement released by the 1st Infantry Division. Soldiers also seized a range of firearms and other weapons in the raids, the military said.
Seems the intel machine is churning out hits. Rock 'n roll, boyz!

#5  As I've said before, drop 'em from a helo above Al Jizeeras TV studios. Then demolish the jihadest homes and build a walmart.

#3  The question for me though is how much of that 50 captured is going to be catch and release.

It can't be said enough - entice the jerks into attacking, then use our firepower to decimate them. No capturing, no arresting. If these jihadists are willing to become martyrs, then the appropriate action to take is to grant them their wish promptly. As hardheaded as Arabs are, it's difficult to believe they wouldn't get the message if it became apparent that no jihadi was being captured alive.
