BAGHDAD, Iraq – Coalition Forces killed two terrorists and detained 29-suspected terrorists during operations targeting al-Qaeda in Iraq and its foreign fighter network Friday.
Two coordinated operations in Mosul targeted a Kurdish extremist known for helping al-Qaeda in Iraq facilitate foreign fighters and conduct financial and media operations. Coalition Forces entered the first targeted building, isolated the women and children and moved further into the house. While maneuvering through the target building, an armed man engaged the ground force with small arms fire, endangering the force and the innocent family members. Coalition Forces defended themselves and the women and children by killing the armed terrorist.
Coalition Forces identified the terrorist as part of the al-Qaeda in Iraq network that recruited and transported foreign fighters into Iraq for participation in suicide bombings and other terrorist activities. Coalition Forces detained seven suspected terrorists during the raids for their alleged involvement in the network as well.
In Baghdad, Coalition Forces conducted an operation to capture an al-Qaeda in Iraq senior leader in the area. As Coalition Forces entered the building, a man continuously made hostile attempts to evade the ground forces and ignored the translator’s instructions to comply with the Forces’ orders. Reacting appropriately to the perceived hostile threat, Coalition Forces engaged the man, killing him.
So it seems that Michael Moore's freedom fighters are only interested in causing indiscriminant violence that threatens the safety of innocent Iraqis, to the point of murdering their own family members if they think it will serve there purposes. I honestly can't understand how someone could honestly believe that Al-Qaeda in Iraq is in any shape or form: the good guys.
