WASHINGTON, March 28 — Intelligence indicating that Iraqi agents were planning terrorist attacks against U.S. or British interests in two foreign countries led to the arrests of the suspected operatives before the attacks could be carried out, the State Department said Friday.

We should just drop the Iraqi agents in with the next "Bunker Buster"! We could just tie the to the bomb to make sure they get home ok! :o

Both of these countries were in the Middle East, but specific names were not given according to the Associated Press.

Nice to hear that we prevented the attacks.

According to FoxNews this AM, we have only influenced about 50% of the governments we contacted to expel Iraqi 'diplomats'...maybe now, the others will wake up and take notice?
