U.S. Hammers Al Qaeda Gangs In North Iraq
BAGHDAD - Raids on al-Qaida forces in northern Iraq have left seven insurgents dead, the U.S. military said. But local police said Friday that two women and two U.S.-allied fighters were among those killed.
The U.S. military said in a statement that one target of the raids late Wednesday and early Thursday was an alleged al-Qaida leader in the Salahuddin province, north of Baghdad. It wasn’t clear if he was killed or captured.
According to the military account released Thursday, troops killed two insurgents during a gunbattle in one area, then called in air support, which killed another four fighters. Troops detained 15 suspected terrorists.
All those killed were “terrorists associated” with al-Qaida in Iraq, said Lt. Michael Street, a military spokesman.
Separately, in an operation Wednesday in southeast Mosul, the U.S. military said it killed an insurgent wearing a suicide belt who shot at troops as they were targeting the building of an al-Qaida terrorist.

We have seen the stories of some poor brainwashed women are allied with AQ. Why is it that if a female gets whacked, the MSM refer to them as female civilians or just as women?
Ahhh, finally a new job, and I can occasionally get back to seeing what all you goof balls are up to! I have missed the place, and hope that Bash and Pat, and everyone else is doing okay.
