Gee what a shock! A US trained Iraqi special forces unit conducting it's own rogue operation? Who could have imagined that they might misuse the money and weapons and training they have received?

                        ARBIL, Iraq (Reuters) - 
The <SPAN id="lw_1219252122_0" class="yshortcuts">U.S. military</SPAN> spoke out on 
Wednesday against a deadly Iraqi special forces raid on the 
governor's office in one of the country's most restive 
provinces, saying it was a "rogue operation."

 The Iraqi unit stormed Diyala governor Raad Rasheed Mulla 
Jawad's office in the provincial capital, Baquba, before dawn 
on Tuesday, killed his secretary and clashed with the <SPAN id="lw_1219252122_1" class="yshortcuts">regular

 "The U.S. was not involved in that raid. It was an element 
of one of the Iraqi special operations forces... Do we support 
it in principle? Absolutely not," said Major-General Mark 
Hertling, commander of U.S. forces in northern Iraq.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080820/ts_nm/iraq_raid_dc"><P>
 Hertling's deputy, Brigadier-General James Boozer, added: 
"It was what appears to be a rogue operation. It's definitely 
concerning that we have an element that would go do something 
like that."</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20080820/ts_nm/iraq_raid_dc">
