Mortar Attack On U.S. Troops
 Insurgents fired mortar rounds at a U.S. supply base north of Baghdad, and American forces arrested at least 12 Iraqi suspects in a counterattack, the U.S. military said Tuesday. There were no reported casualties.

The mortar attack occurred late Monday night at a base near Balad, 55 miles north of the capital, said Spc. Nicole Thompson, a spokeswoman for the U.S. military in Baghdad. She said U.S. forces subsequently caught 12 of the suspected attackers.

Meanwhile, witnesses said a U.S. military vehicle was attacked early Tuesday morning in Baghdad.

Soon they'll be more people in jail in Iraq than in the U.S.!

1. "Do Not -- repeat -- Do Not Bring 'em on"
Ignore half-wit Commander-in-Chief* and General Tommy Franks. Do not attack our men and women in uniform (or in civvies). Ignore idiot "leaders." Do not "bring 'em on."


* Rejected by patriotic and discerning US voters in 2000; appointed by the so-called supreme court.
