British Black Ops Taking Out Thousands Of The Bad Guys That Biden Says Don't Exist In Iraq (UPDATE: Biden Screws Up Brigades Vs. Battalions. Again.)

Alert

This...

More than 3,500 insurgents have been "taken off the streets of Baghdad" by the elite British force in a series of audacious "Black Ops" over the past two years. It is understood that while the majority of the terrorists were captured, several hundred, who were mainly members of the organisation known as "al-Qa'eda in Iraq" have been killed by the SAS. The SAS is part of a highly secretive unit called "Task Force Black" which also includes Delta Force, the US equivalent of the SAS. The prime targets have been those intent on joining the wave of suicide car bombers that claimed around 3,000 lives a month in Baghdad at the height of the terrorist campaign in 2006.

... is as good a time as any to revisit this:

"If they can't identify the enemy or describe the war we’re fighting, it’s very difficult to define whether we've won or lost," Biden said. Biden, the chair of the Senate foreign relations committee, also criticized McCain for putting too much emphasis on Iraq. "If John wants to know where the bad guys live, come back with me to Afghanistan," Biden said. "We know where they reside. And it’s not in Iraq."

Ladies and gentlemen, the Democrats' top foreign policy expert and the "experience and gravitas" half of the Presidential ticket up by 8 in the latest polls. I think I liked him better when he was only going to become the next Secretary of State.

UPDATE: Yup, a veritable foreign policy genius we're dealing with here.
