Bereaved Father Leads Troops to a Leader of the Insurgency
Iraq Fact of the Day
The vast majority of Iraqis continue to oppose those undermining the
security of the new Iraq. When U.S. Marines visited a neighborhood
outside Fallujah recently, they discovered a family holding a wake for
their teenage son killed by Iraqi thugs. The father pointed out the
location of the suspected murderer, and the Marines detained the
suspect. After checking his identity against other information, the
Marines realized the criminal was wanted as a ringleader of the
insurgency. Tips continue to flow to the coalition from the many
citizens who support a free, secure, and peaceful Iraq.
