Car Bomb Busted In Iraq

"Iraqi civilians are aiding in the fight against radical insurgents:

"A vehicle borne improvised explosive device (VBIED) was safely neutralized after being reported to local Iraqi police hours after a separate VBIED struck a police station in Iraq’s northern city of Kirkuk, Jan. 17.

A bystander notified police after witnessing a suspicious driver abandoning a parked car. Iraqi police investigated the scene and notified coalition forces from the 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 25th Infantry Division, operating in Kirkuk. An explosive ordnance team was sent to the site and conducted a controlled detonation with no casualties.

Local tips have prevented at least two VBIED attacks within the past three days.

“Civic action is a key to preventing the violence,” said Maj. Patrick Campbell, civil affairs officer, 3rd IBCT, 25th ID. “The citizens are beginning to realize they have a role in security and are also demonstrating an increasing level of trust in the police.”

(AFP) How come we don't see the heroism among civilian Iraqis reported in the mainstream American media?? And why do democrats wish to throw the Iraqi people to Iranian Islamist wolves??
