80 More Angels…
...just got their wings.
At least 80 insurgents have been killed by Iraqi special forces backed by US troops in a raid on a training camp near the city of Tikrit, officials say.
An Iraqi commando unit engaged in heavy fighting before seizing control of the camp, 160km (100 miles) north-west of Baghdad, on Tuesday.
Is it inappropriate to mark death with joy? Possibly, but when that death is a symbol of innocent others who won’t be killed, then I hope I can be forgiven my happiness.
