Iraq PM outlines coming security sweep – Houston Chronicle By QASSIM ABDUL-ZAHRA Associated Press Writer
Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki did not reveal the details of the plan, which he has dubbed “Operation Imposing Law,” or say when it would begin. …
The crackdown “aims to disarm all groups and only leave weapons in the hands of the government,” al-Maliki said, repeating a phrase he has used consistently. “This plan will not be the last. The battle between us and terrorists is open and continuous.”
Where is the NRA on the issue of forced disarmament of Iraqis? As the NRA sees it, our freedoms are guaranteed by your right to have as many guns as you like and any effort to restrict that is unconstitutional and un-American. So now American soldiers are involved in taking guns from Iraqis. And the NRA remains silent? This is their worst nightmare. mjh
I just have to
believe the NRA is on top of this. I’m sure we’ll soon see bumper stickers to the effect,”Guns don’t kill innocent Iraqi civilians
and American Troops, suicide bombers do.”
Actually, Al Quada in Iraq have been seen wearing t-shirts with
“Guns don’t kill people, People kill people” in Arabic. It’s their recruiting slogan.
