Terrorist Website Admits Own Deaths
- Associated Press
This is a rare admission, however it is interesting to note the countries of origin of the terrorists killed. Certain "intellectuals" and politicians would like you to believe the fighters in Iraq are Iraqis while Iraq's own government acknowledges many are foreign born.

CAIRO, Egypt - A posting on an Islamic Web site Friday made a rare admission of significant casualties among insurgents fighting U.S. forces in Iraq, saying 24 guerrillas, most of them non-Iraqi Arabs, were killed in battles in Fallujah the day before.The posting on a site known as a clearinghouse for militant Muslim statements said three hours of fighting in Fallujah on Thursday resulted in the "martyrdom" of 24 fighters from different Islamic factions, 19 of them from Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Egypt, Syria and Jordan. The rest were said to be Iraqis.

Why is it that (official, ha, lol) news agencies never discover anything until 6 months after the obvious? Rare admission, yes, however nothing new.

I think that most of us and our government does indeed know that these terrorists are not Iraqi's but they are Arabs so they can blend in as easy as any Iraqi individual.
What's most important right now is when are the Iraqi citizens step up to the plate and fight against these foreign invaders who are not there just to kill Americans, but millions of Iraqi's and they really do need to step up and take responsibility to put an end to terrorists killing them.

No, it's never been the Iraqi people themseves but sometimes they get coerced into doing something they really do not want to do. The hardliners are from other countries coming over the border and when on another post, I said "nuke em" we'd get most of the terrorists in one place. GreyRooster, I think they already knew that these terrorists were never the Iraqi people from the very beginning, so it's nothing new. What is new are the fights between Sunni's and Shia's not helping matters. Not long ago in Pakistan, a man ran out of one mosque and threw a bomb in the other mosque; a week later, someone from the other mosque ran over and threw a bomb inside the other mosque. Well, Muscharaff put an end to that immediately. One mosque was sunni and the other a shia. Learning about Shia laws is a mind-boggler and will piss you off big time.
