Surprised?
"Bombing targets pilgrims in Iraq; 4 dead, dozens hurt" by Robert H. Reid, Associated Press | August 16, 2008
BAGHDAD - A review of intelligence gleaned from captured militia fighters and other sources has revealed that Iraqi Shi'ite assassination teams are being trained in at least four locations in Iran by Tehran's elite Quds force and Lebanese Hezbollah. The intelligence also indicates that the squads are planning to return to Iraq in the next few months to kill specific Iraqi officials as well as US and Iraqi troops. A senior US military intelligence officer in Baghdad described the information Thursday in an interview with the Associated Press. He spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive intelligence.
The officer has provided Iraq's national security adviser with several lists of the assassination teams' expected targets.
Those wouldn't be OURS, would they (see links below)?
He said the targets include many judges but would not otherwise identify them. Iraq's intelligence service is planning operations to determine where and when the special group fighters will enter the country and is to provide an assessment to Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki.
PFFFT! Nice job, AP!!
Oh, and about the "suicider" that was ostensibly the lead of this piece?
Balad has been relatively free from major attacks since May, and the US military said nearly 600 former insurgents in the area had agreed to stop fighting and cooperate with the United States and its Iraqi partners.
Yeah, that leaves a big stench in my nostrils!!!
Ahem.

Also yesterday, the US military reported the deaths of two more service members - a Marine in combat the day before west of Baghdad and a soldier who died yesterday of "nonbattle related causes" in the capital.
Those deaths raised to at least 4,143 the number of US military personnel who have died in the Iraq war since it began in March 2003, according to a count by the Associated Press.
