THE WAR ON TERROR REGIMES IS THE WAR ON TERROR:

Car Explodes in Iraq, Killing Three Coalition Soldiers, Pregnant Woman (Fox News, April 04, 2003)

A car exploded at a special operations checkpoint in western Iraq, killing three coalition soldiers, a pregnant woman and the car's driver, the U.S. Central Command said Friday.

Brig. Gen. Vincent Brooks, Central Command deputy director of operations, described the bombing as terrorist.

"These are not military actions. These are terrorist actions," he said

The apparent suicide attack occurred Thursday night about 11 miles southwest of the Haditha Dam. The site is northwest of Baghdad and about 80 miles east of the Syrian border.

Brooks said U.S. special operations forces were working in the region of the dam, but he declined to give further details on what forces were killed.

"A pregnant female stepped out of the vehicle and began screaming in fear," a Central Command statement said. "At this point the civilian vehicle exploded, killing three coalition force members who were approaching the vehicle and wounding two others." The statement said the woman and the driver also were killed.

Brooks said it was impossible to know if the woman voluntarily took part in the attack.

"As coalition forces began to approach, she and the vehicle were detonated," Brooks said. "Whether this woman was coerced or not, it's now impossible to say ... some parts of it will never be discovered."

The act is evil enough in itself, but the fear must be that the woman truly was pregnant and was an unwilling victim. And every time something like this happens we must recall that the French, Germans, Democrats, the Pope, the Anglican Church, Hollywood, etc., etc., etc., ad nauseum, sought to preserve this regime. The sickening stench of death rises from the hands of the anti-war Left. Posted by Orrin Judd at April 4, 2003 9:41 AM
