Predictions of Blunders in Iraq
visitors 
I predict that in the next 7 days an American Convoy
will be bombed as it drives down an Iraqi highway or boulevard, killing 4
to 7 American troops.
We know they set bombs at night. We know where
they set them. And we keep driving by or over them.
Insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a
different result.
We can place mesh network sensors along the roads we
travel. Then we watch for bombers and track them back to their
origins. Then we track the people to their homes using Predators.
Then we follow all of their contacts back to the leadership. Then we
arrest/kill everyone.
Next we declare a curfew so the roads are free-fire
zone between 10 pm and 6 am. Next we place snipers with 3/4 mile
range rifles along the roads. We use infrared tracking devices.
Anyone on the road during curfew gets shot.
We can stop being such sitting ducks.
=========
I predict that within 7 days the Iraqi Police will
announce a meeting and that the meeting will be bombed, killing 15 to 25
policemen or recruits.
America is backing the dumber Iraqis.

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- A string of suicide bombing attacks across Iraq targeted Iraqi police Saturday, leaving dozens of people wounded and more than 20 dead.
In the latest attack, two suicide bombers killed eight policemen and wounded 36 others inside and outside a cafeteria frequented by Iraqi police around 10 p.m. in Hilla, south of Baghdad, police said.
Earlier in the day, around 9:45 a.m., a suicide bomber with an explosive vest killed at least 12 people and wounded 22 others at a police recruiting center in western Baghdad, the U.S. military and an Iraqi police official said.
Most of those killed and wounded were Iraqi police commandos who were working with recruits outside the base near al-Nisoor square.
The attacker was dressed in an Iraqi police commando uniform when he blew himself up, the police official said.
About three hours later, a suicide car bomb exploded at an Iraqi police checkpoint in the town of al-Mahmoudiya, about 25 miles (40 kilometers) south of Baghdad, an Iraqi police official said. Al-Yarmouk hospital in Baghdad received one dead and three wounded. All were civilians.
Shortly afterward, a remote-controlled car bomb exploded in eastern Baghdad, wounding three Iraqi policemen and eight civilians, a Baghdad police official said.
In other violence, Iraqi Industry Minister Usama al-Najafi escaped an attack on his convoy Saturday night in western Baghdad. Four bodyguards were wounded.
