Oil installation guards attacked in Iraq

BAGHDAD, Aug. 3 (UPI) -- Two people from a force that guards oil installations were killed and seven others wounded in a highway attack in Iraq Wednesday, police said.

The force was on its way in a convoy from Kirkuk in northern Iraq to Baghdad when they were attacked by gunmen.

Also, Sunni leader Adnan Dalimi claimed U.S. troops raided Dalimi's house in Baghdad early Wednesday and interrogated him before letting him go.

Dalimi, the former head of the Sunni religious endowment, said the troops handcuffed and blindfolded him, then forced him to lie on the floor before an officer interrogated him about people he said he did not know.

1. Oh no! They're attacking the oil guards!
Looks like the AWOL chimp and President Cheney may have to cut short their vacations.

2. Dubya will just appoint another back door positon
and put the bad news in the back of the papers again. They do it every time. Sheeple only read the front page anyway.

3. Oil installation guards?
My guess is that these guards are guarding US. Which would mean that WE are working on taking THEIR oil.

Just how obvious does this Iraqi oil hiest have to be before Americans drag these criminals out of their government and hang them?
