Asalaamu alaikum,
I have been very busy and unfortunately (or fortunately, perhaps) have not been keeping abreast of the latest developments in Iraq. These latest actions by the terrorists are disgusting, deplorable and most importantly completely unIslamic.
If we look at the murders on a purely strategic level, the killings have done nothing to deter the coalition from deploying troops or from retreating. In fact, it probably has strengthened their resolve. If the terrorists are clever, they'll find another way of helping Iraq (if that is what they think they're doing). Somehow, I doubt they will change their tactics.
May Allah guide us all onto the straight path.
