Top secret eh? :cantbeli:
i dont blame them
you have to have something before you lose it, and they never had it, woopteedoo. they never liked us to begin with, we helped em out a bit, but it still doesnt change 30,40,50 some odd years of resentment. to say they had faith in a hated 30+year enemy infidels walking thier country with mass arms is stupid. some of them are scared ****less, some still hate us, and some are keeping a wary eye on us. i bet very few have faith we can sweep in and make thier lives kingly within the year.

Christians In Action working overtime again.
*** Newsflash guys *** the Iraqi's havn't had any faith to loose in the US, Great Britain, or any of the other 'infidel' nations for years.
They hate us all, they just hate some of us more than others.

What? I can't believe this, I thought the Iraqis loved the U.S. Where is this world going to? Good thing CIA figured it out so early.
Anyways, I don't care what press or anyone here says about this invasion. It's going to last just as long as needed, money talks. There is no such option that the coalition would get out of Iraq in ten years.

Heavy Fire in Baghdad as U.S. Attacks Guerrillas
BAGHDAD (*******) - U.S. forces struck suspected guerrilla targets in Baghdad with mortars, artillery and gunships on Thursday on the second night of a crackdown against anti-American attackers in the Iraqi capital.
The sound of explosions and bursts of artillery fire echoed across the city and tracer fire lit up the night sky.
A military spokesman said U.S. forces attacked three sites across the city, including a building used by insurgents on Wednesday to attack on American soldiers with rockets.
The strikes were part of Operation Iron Hammer, an offensive against guerrillas whose attacks on U.S. forces in Baghdad have grown ever bolder in recent days.
"We are going after locations that the enemy are using to launch attacks," Captain David Gercken of the U.S. Army's 1st Armored Division told *******.
"We're making sure they have no place to meet, no place to plan attacks and no place to store weapons. There will be no safe havens."
He said ground and air units had struck locations near Baghdad's international airport to the south of the city, near Abu Ghraib prison on the city's western outskirts and in eastern Baghdad.
On Wednesday, an AC-130 Spectre gunship destroyed a Baghdad warehouse which the U.S. military said was being used to plan attacks on its forces.
Two Iraqis were killed in helicopter strike on a van which U.S. forces said was used to launch mortars.
In the last 10 days, Iraqi guerrillas have launched several night-time mortar attacks on the headquarters of the U.S.-led administration in central Baghdad.
Insurgents opposed to the U.S.-led occupation have killed 156 U.S. soldiers in Iraq (news - web sites) since President Bush (news - web sites) declared major combat over on May 1.
"Operation Iron Hammer will continue tonight, tomorrow and in the coming days," said Gercken.
