Right before a major offensive, (the17,000 troops going into
Baghdad), they will provoke both sides. In a span of three days
they placed a bomb on a US helicopter, bombed a meeting of US officials,
kidnapped three soldiers and slitting their throats, for a total of US
at 27 dead. There were two massive bombs, one at
Baghdad University, the other at a
Baghdad market, killing 175. Today they
sabotaged a Blackwater helicopter,
killing five, in an identical operation
to this.
The purpose is to turn Baghdad into a shooting gallery with a bunch
of angry mercenaries, and US troops. This is a carbon copy of the
Fallujah attack.
