Military action is being taken, aimed at the terrorists who have been doing so much harm in Iraq lately. U.S. Kills 75 Insurgents in Iraqi Offensive:
BAGHDAD, Iraq — American troops backed by helicopters and war planes have launched a major offensive against insurgents in a remote desert area near the Syrian border, and about 75 militants were killed in the first 24 hours, the U.S. military said.
It looks like the terrorists are coming in from Syria:
The report, by a journalist embedded with the U.S. forces, said the offensive “was seeking to uproot a persistent insurgency in an area that American intelligence indicated has become a haven for foreign fighters flowing in from Syria.”
