The U.S. statement said the Iranians were released after a “careful review of individual records to determine if they posed a security threat to Iraq, and if their detention was of continued intelligence value.”
“All nine individuals were determined to no longer pose a security risk,” it said.
Are the Iranian's starting to back off? Is this a gesture of goodwill?
Personally, if they are found again in Iraq supporting the insurgency, they should get the business end of a soldier's rifle.
I simply cannot condemn our men and women over there for defending themselves from people who want them dead, regardless of their political status.
If someone's supplying bombs to insurgents, they are just as guilty as the insurgents and should be captured or killed immediately. If they are captured, released and found again, they've had their chance and should die for their crimes.
