Two bad guys killed and an M40A1 rifle recovered. Great job.

+1 Good to hear that they are getting the stolen equipment back at the same time. One less rifle aimed on killing those serving in Iraq.

%^&# YEAH!

Perhaps those RAT $%^#s were responsible for some of those Jihadi videos floating around on the internet.  This take down could be very significant.

A little payback for the fallen.

Nice work to all involved in taking these two clowns out of commission.

If you read the pic #6 caption, it says that theyt had 5 minute of footage focused on the veh commanders hatch. I wonder if they were trying to  film their sniper in action? Then I have to ask myself: how many guys are driving around unaware that someone is taking pot shots at them? Thank god for their poor marksmenship...

......... how many guys are driving around unaware that someone is taking pot shots at them? Thank god for their poor marksmenship...

Unfortunately, there are terrorist videos on the web which show instances OTHER than "potshots".

We are not talking about 1,000 yard shots here. You dont have to be that skilled when you are taking shots which can be recorded with an ordinary camcorder.

There are a zillion sniper videos on youtube.com, notnice towatch but a common theme is the number of non-fatal shots.  They really don't seem to have very good marksmanship skills, thank god for that.  I guess the acronym 'HABIT' must not translate well to arabic.

Well done all involved - ain't payback a b#tch.
