Courtesy of The Mudville Gazette, here's a very interesting account of Lt. Kevin Irvin of Bravo Company of Arkansas' 39th Infantry Brigade and his discovery of a very special "bookstore" in Baghdad.
Inside, soldiers captured two Mahdi Army fighters, weapons, ammunition, grenades, mortars and piles of paperwork on Mahdi Army operations.Read it all. And recognize that behind all of this crap our men and women are going through is the guiding hand of Iran.
Among the paperwork were passes for Iraqi workers to enter Forward Operating Base Gunslinger, headquarters for 3rd Battalion and Bravo Company's home. "Here's one that allows a contractor to come and go without escort," Irvin said, holding up one of the plastic cards as he dug through piles of paper in the building's courtyard. "That's scary."
When President Bush gets rehired, those pricks are going to regret their meddling. Count on it.
