I heard this from a reputable source.
Edited on Fri Dec-02-05 07:41 PM by 4MoronicYears
that on one particular morning in Iraq, some Iraqi "trainees" were supposed to be in the lineup for the morning excercises. None of them showed up. A hail of mortar shells came in on our boys and their camp. Ten minutes later all the Iraqi "trainees" were standing in line. Do the math.

Where is my daddy, and no I won't forget who took him away from me.... just wait until I can wear a C-4 belt.

1. Source?
I wouldn't doubt this a bit, but can you give your source?

I'm telling ya, the majority of the insurgents are IRAQI!!! This is a civil war!

If you were in your own kitchen having verbal war with a member of your own family, would you want your neighbor from the other side of town there trying to referee? I think not.

3. So, either somebody tipped them off or they're working both sides.
No big surprise. As more Iraqis are trained to "take over" for the American forces, the more incidents like this will occur.

What's the quickest way to defeat the enemy? Infiltrate the enemy. We are the enemy to a majority of the Iraqis, if latest surveys are any indication of the truth.

Stupid stupid stupid bush.

4. I have suspected that these types of incidents have been occuring
Maybe someone will write a new version of the classic "Catch-22", only this one will reveal more insanity.


We need to get out of Iraq ASAP.
