1. Some stuff about pipeline sabotage here as well

I have been wondering how that has been going. This seems to be the critical factor in whether the occupation will be sustained.

OIL PIPELINE SABOTAGED

An oil pipeline west of Kirkuk in Iraq was damaged in an act of sabotage using explosives, reported AFP.

The explosion cut through the pipeline that joins the oilfields to a pumping station in Hasiba used for internal market needs and to supply tanker trucks used for the export of crude oil.

Meanwhile, members of the Iraqi resistance today attacked a police checkpoint 80 kilometers from the city of Kirkuk, killing one police officer and one civilian, according to reports from PL.
