WITH ANY LUCK, THE WAR EFFORT WILL GAIN A POWERFUL new ally in PETA after they read the latest news out of Iraq, via JihadWatch. With recruiting predictably down, the local terrorists are now availing themselves of local canines, according to the UK Telegraph.

Insurgents in Iraq attached explosives to a dog and tried to blow up a military convoy near the northern oil centre of Kirkuk.

The canine bomb went off but the only casualty was the unfortunate animal, said police. The militants wrapped an explosive belt around the dog and detonated it as the convoy passed through Dakuk, 25 miles south of Kirkuk, said the town's police chief, Col Mohammed Barzaji.

"The dog was torn apart by the explosion which caused neither injury among the soldiers nor any damage."
Col Barzaji said the bomb had been detonated outside a Shia mosque. "Eight suspects have been detained."


I guess Zarqawi and his fellow killers have a dog in this fight after all.
