Operation Spear
Jun 17th 2005RavenGeneral & Marine Corps
From Fox News:
Operation Spear started in the pre-dawn hours in Anbar province to hunt for insurgents and foreign fighters, the military said. The area, which straddles the Syrian border, is where U.S. forces said it killed about 40 militants in airstrikes in Karabilah on June 11.
The operation came one day after Air Force Brig. Gen. Don Alston called the Syrian border the “worst problem” in terms of stemming the influx of foreign fighters to Iraq. Syria is under intense pressure from Washington and Baghdad to tighten control of its porous 380-mile border with Iraq.
The Marines have lost 11 men and two sailors over the past week in separate incidents around Anbar.
Those Islamafreakoids should be running scared right about now. And they can run and hide…but they will be found. There is nothing more frightening then a group of angry pissed off Marines…hunting down the enemy.
