Photos From the War Against Jihadists--Iraq Front
An American soldier, Staff Sgt. Michael Marker, chats with the local boys on a street in Mosul, Iraq,
on Nov. 20, 2006. Marker, a squad leader with 2nd Platoon, Bravo Company, 5th Battalion, 20th Infantry Regiment, and fellow soldiers are conducting a joint presence and community engagement with Iraqi army soldiers from 1st Battalion, 2nd Brigade, 2nd Iraqi Army Division.
Some of the Iraqi children look pretty much the opposite of what we've come to recognize as Muslims from the Middle East. I foresee difficulties in profiling these boys should they join the Jihadists in the next few years and, for example, try to board a plane in America.
