We'll be able to find them by the smoking craters that will appear wherever their workshops were. I take it you've not been keeping track of the news? Several intact bomb makers and bomb making labs seized, no reports of own goals. You may be overstating the case somewhat. Well, the Guardian did a detailed report following up one own-goal: a local criminal and tough guy blew himself and three friends up while showing off the bomb he was going to kill some Americans with. So, the Iraqi 'resistance' *are* losing a few to their own IEDs. Trouble is, the rate's not high enough to prevent a lot of attempts and some successes. -- When you have to kill a man, it costs nothing to be polite. W S Churchill Paul J.
