U.S. Forces Arrest 40 Iraqi Policemen in Raid
Iraqi authorities said late Sunday that U.S. forces raided an Interior Ministry building and arrested 40 policemen after discovering 17 non-Iraqi prisoners in the facility.

Police 1st Lt. Thayer Mahmoud said the arrested police were being held for investigation, but the reason was not known.

Mahmoud said the U.S. forces remained at the building and were guarding the 17 foreigners.

Well This must not be news?

Why are we arresting terrorists and their allies? We should be KILLING them.

No its not news.  Since Interior Ministry/Police officers were caught on film taking part in the violence that followed the Golden Mosque bombing this has been expected at any time.  Exepct more raids and arrests at police stations.

The foreign "prisoners" are probably Al Qaida foreign Jihadi who because of their language or appearance cannot hide in the Iraqi population in the area- so their moles in the Police are keeping them as "prisoners" when outsiders are around then going out with them at night to attack surrounding communities.
