Election Eve

Baquba, Iraq

The US Army here in Baquba baited insurgents into attacking fake elections sites. Among other tactics, the Army set up dummy facilities then leaked information to the insurgents. The ruse was successful, causing anti-Iraqi fighters to direct energies and ammunitions into attacking meaningless locations.

Please give the gift of independent reporting. Your gift goes far and is used for transport, lodging, living expenses, satellite communications and for repairing and replacing gear that fails due to the rigors of the battlefields.  Millions of people, in more than a hundred countries, see these photos and words.  Your generosity goes very far, and is greatly appreciated.
