Beer Monday: Iraqi’s Stepping Up

Yes, the start of a new work week. Time to get busy, shift a few paradigms, think outside the box, make a few moves. How ’bout a beer?

Dems are going to need some beer after reading this story (via Mark Stein)

BAGHDAD – Former Sunni insurgents asked the United States to stay away, and then ambushed members of Al Qaeda in Iraq, killing 18 in a battle that raged for hours north of Baghdad, an ex-insurgent leader and Iraqi police said yesterday.

The Islamic Army in Iraq sent advance word to Iraqi police requesting that US helicopters keep out of the area because its fighters had no uniforms and were indistinguishable from Al Qaeda, according to the police and a top Islamic Army leader known as Abu Ibrahim.

Abu Ibrahim said his fighters killed 18 Al Qaeda militants and captured 16 in the fight southeast of Samarra, a mostly Sunni city about 60 miles north of Baghdad.

“We found out that Al Qaeda intended to attack us, so we ambushed them at 3 p.m. on Friday,” Abu Ibrahim said. He would not say whether any Islamic Army members were killed.

Much of the Islamic Army in Iraq, a major Sunni Arab insurgent group that includes former members of Saddam Hussein’s Ba’ath Party, has joined the US-led fight against Al Qaeda in Iraq along with Sunni tribesmen and other former insurgents repelled by the terror group’s brutality and extremism.

I don’t think it is necessary to comment, other then to state, I wonder how Kerry and Kennedy felt about reading their biggest state paper Sunday morning? Well, mid afternoon for Ted, after a good night getting his liquor on.

    Sunday Ted was feeling p-r-e-t-t-y good. Being a servant of the people (of the bluest state in the USA), and seeing the poll numbers showing that Americans are still overwhelming against the war, and pessimistic about the future of Iraq must have made him quite comfortable with his own position.

    The people of the United States have pretty much made up their mind that Iraq was a mistake. I believe that 2008 will have Iraq and the economy as the 2 biggest issues. At some point Americans are going to realize just how much this war cost, perhaps when they realize that the US dollar is becoming a second tier currency.
