El Beeb our state broadcaster that we have to fund with the licence tax, seems to have a bit of a problem with this trial, no mention of Islam, one useage of the word muslim. Also I was watching the headlines today on El Beeb 24 and not a mention, lots of bits on the dhimmi Blair and the usual El Beeb spin on news reporting from Iraq - report only the bad news and put a heavy anti US spin on it. Rottweiller Pup is on the ball with this one in his coverage of it, when he points out:
Indeed, over the course of one, two, three, four, five, six articles on the proceedings, the word ‘Muslim’ makes only one appearance, while ‘Islam’ gets no mention at all
David Waters QC, for the prosecution, said: “Jawad Akbar referred to attacks upon the utilities, gas, water or electrical supplies. “Alternatively, a big nightclub in central London might be a target.”
Mr Akbar allegedly said: “The biggest nightclub in central London, no one can put their hands up and say they are innocent - those slags dancing around.”
Later, he was recorded saying: “I think the club thing you could do but the gas would be much harder.”
Mr Mahmood was allegedly recorded saying the Madrid bombings were “absolutely beautiful”, while brother Shujah said it would have been “fantissimo” if they had been staged during the holidays to target families.
He said Mr Mahmood had said: “You could get a job in a soccer stadium as a beer vendor.
“You just put poison in a syringe, injecting it in a can and put a sticker on it which would stop it leaking and give it out.
“Or you could get mobile vending carts - all those vans going round selling burgers. He said he had done it. I didn’t believe it. “He said you could stand on street corners selling poison burgers and then just leave the area.”
** One day the question will have to be asked, just how can we raise a generation who live in this nation and yet have no connection to it in any way shape or form? It is certainly not for the want of trying as the left have for the last thirty years done their best to educate and support the muslim population in the UK. Then the more difficult question has to be asked on how do we integrate populations into the mainstream whilst allowing them to keep their belief systems and yet making sure that they value ours enough to let us live in peace?

Iraqi citizens lead MND-B Soldiers to multiple weapons caches
BAGHDAD, Iraq – A tip from an Iraqi citizen led Multi-National Division – Baghdad Soldiers to a weapons cache Friday south of Baghdad.

Following the discovery of the first weapons cache, MND-B Soldiers began searching the area and found a second cache, consisting of 24 RPG rounds.
In a separate incident south of Baghdad, another Iraqi citizen led Soldiers from 1st Battalion, 22nd Infantry Regiment, 1st BCT, 4th Inf. Div., to a smaller weapons cache.

Operation Scorpion concludes
KIRKUK, Iraq – Soldiers of the 2nd Brigade, 4th Iraqi Army Division, with assistance from Soldiers from 1st Brigade Combat Team, Bastogne, 101st Airborne Division, detained 52 suspected insurgents Friday during Operation Scorpion, a sequential cordon and search of eight villages in and around Hawijah.
During the second Iraqi Brigade-led operation in as many months, Iraqi Soldiers confirmed that 24 out of the 52 detainees were on their target list, built from their own intelligence gathering. The other detainees are being held for further questioning.
“This Iraqi Army Brigade has made tremendous progress in the five months we’ve been working with them,” said Col. David Gray, Commander, 1st BCT, 101st Airborne Division. “In October, they were loosely organized and not very well trained. The success of Operation Scorpion, and their ability to conduct a complex mission in the Hawijah area without suffering or inflicting casualties, demonstrates their professionalism and improved level of discipline.”
The Iraqi-planned and led offensive started just before sunrise, as Iraqi Soldiers linked up with their Bastogne comrades to begin their coordinated movement. Just after 4:00 a.m. Iraqi Soldiers moved through the villages, systematically searching for the selected targets that Iraqi intelligence indicated were in the area while OH-58 Kiowa helicopters from 2nd Squadron, 17th Cavalry Regiment, circled above and Soldiers from the 1st Battalion, 1st BCT, provided outer perimeter security. The thorough searches provided intelligence leading to more evidence and the capture of more suspects.
“This operation was developed and planned by Maj. Gen. Anwar, Commander of the 2nd Iraqi Army Brigade, and his staff,” Gray said. “The willingness and ability of the Iraqi Soldiers to take on a mission of this scope, and in an area that has been a hotbed of terrorist activity, is an indicator of the progress the Iraqi Army has made.”
Operation Scorpion began with supporting operations in the village of Mahoos and the city of Kirkuk. While 101st Soldiers provided perimeter security, Iraqi Soldiers, acting on their own intelligence sources, moved by helicopter into the village of Mahoos, searching for seven terror suspects. Within two hours of touching down, the Iraqi Company had searched their designated targets, captured five of their intended suspects, and were back on the helicopters headed for a nearby U.S. Army compound.
Meanwhile, in another supporting operation, Soldiers from the Iraqi Army’s 2nd Battalion, 2nd Brigade teamed up with Soldiers from 2nd Battalion, 1st BCT, to conduct raids for suspected terrorists in Kirkuk. As Coalition Soldiers provided outer cordon security, Iraqi Soldiers moved through the neighborhoods, capturing six intended targets. They also discovered a weapons cache of two unregistered AK-47 rifles along with various materials used to make IEDs.
The Iraqi security forces have proved their worth on the ground in this operation, both in terms of intelligence gathering and their skills at completing the mission. They have continued to make progress and they have unique advantages in identifying threats and deterring insurgent activity due to their familiarity with the area and culture.
