| 500 insurgents surrendered their weapons - Must be a typo: Harry Reid |
| 2008-06-11 |
 The U.S. military says more than 500 insurgents in central Iraq have surrendered their weapons and joined the reconciliation process. I thought only the Iraqi Army surrendered weapons, this has to be a typo: Harry Reid. A statement Wednesday reports the surrender began about three weeks ago in the Balad region, northwest of Baghdad. A U.S. commander in the region, Lieutenant Colonel Bob McCarthy, called this a key step in re-integrating the former insurgents into their communities. |
