Good news from Iraq that is sure not to make the nightly news broadcasts. The MSM never seems to want to say much about when the enemy is killed as they should be by our guys.

Coalition Forces kill assassination team
Multi-National Corps – West PAO
CAMP FALLUJAH, Iraq- An Al Qaeda assassination team was killed by Coalition Forces in Fallujah Tuesday. Coalition snipers heard gunshots and quickly responded to the murder of an off-duty Fallujah policeman by gunmen in civilian clothes. The Marines from 1st Battalion, 24th Marines, Regimental Combat Team 5 immediately engaged the armed gunmen and killed two of them.
The third gunman was killed as he attempted to flee in a vehicle.
“We honor the service of the Fallujah policeman Hamed Mohammed Jassim,” said Coalition spokesperson Marine Lt. Col. Bryan Salas. “He stood against the murder and intimidation campaign of the terrorists to help bring security and prosperity to his neighbors in Fallujah. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.”
Assault rifles and other items were recovered from the gunmen.

Keep up the good work guys! Maybe one day the full fury of our military will be unleashed on the enemy, instead of calls to cut and run.
Hat tip CENTCOM!

“Maybe one day the full fury of our military will be unleashed on the enemy…” You’ve got that right. Trying to fight a PC war blindfolded, with both hands behind your back (just to make is fair) only benifits our enemy. I really wish they could just take the gloves off, fight to win, and be home in time for dinner.
