Troops Uncover Cache, Capture 13 Suspects

Here is another story we won't read about in the MSM, Troops uncovering another cache and capturing 13 suspected terrorists:

FORWARD OPERATING BASE LOYALTY, Iraq — Multi-National Division – Baghdad uncovered a weapons cache and captured 13 suspected insurgents during raids in eastern Baghdad July 13.

Soldiers from 2nd Battalion, 16th Infantry Regiment, based out of Fort Riley, Kan., detained five suspects and recovered two rocket-propelled grenade launchers, three grenades and one improvised explosive device in an operation in the New Baghdad District of the Iraqi capital.

In a separate raid, Soldiers with 2nd Battalion, 17th Field Artillery, a Fort Carson, Colo.- based unit detained eight suspected insurgents in the Zafarniya District. They also recovered circuit boards, wires, timers, soldering tools and nine million Iraqi dinar during the raid.

Great work boys...every weapon off the streets is one less tool the enemy can use agianst us. Is it any wonder then that the MSM isn't interested in a news story of this nature...no one died, nothing spectacular happened and yet more good came out of this mission than anything else being reported upon by the MSM.

If you only get your news about Iraq from the newspapers and television news outlets...you only have yourself to blame for your piss poor attitude about Iraq. The reality on the ground is 180 degrees different than the one portrayed in the news. You should do yourself a favor and start searching for the real news about the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, you'll be surpised about how much good work is being accomplished there.
