Militant group warns of Mosul retaliation

Militant group warns of Mosul retaliation: By BUSHRA JUHI, Associated Press Writer

BAGHDAD - An al-Qaida in Iraq front group warned Tuesday that insurgents were waiting for the right moment to retaliate against a U.S.-Iraqi security crackdown in the northern city of Mosul.

And why is this news? Did someone actually see this and say, "WOW, who'd uh thunk it?" Slow day for the AP? Yeah, thought so. After all, isn't that what they always do? It's sorta like their job, to wait for "the right moment" to attack just about anything, especially funerals. And I read about how our ground forces can't use hollow points because of the rules of war... so I'm wondering why that applies to terrorists, and why can't we use or buy more than one type of bullet?

Anyway, I have a feeling that the front group was answering question when they made that statement, the question being, "what happened to you, are you giving up?" Yeah, just waiting waiting for the right moment... sure, whatever ya say bub.
