Default Contractors hit in fortified green zone

Iraqi freedom fighters have hit for the first time inside the "safe" green zone in Baghdad. The zone had been targeted by mortars and b car bombs at the gates, but never hit from the inside.
It seems 4 contractors (usually armed guards, if not worse) were killed and 2 GIs wounded.

Nowhere is safe.
Run, run, run for your lives!!!

Seriously though - it was only a matter of time. If the insurgents are hitting targets all over Iraq, the green zone couldn't remain protected forever.

Abd yet, still some people insist that Iraq is getting safer by the day and terrorists are a thing of the past.

Anybody I know? Care to name names? I haven't seen this.

As a matter of fact I remind you President Bush told us that the attacks would get worse as the elections neared.

Crawl back into the hole you crept out of. Freedom fighters? who do you mean Al Queada or the Bhaathists still loyal to Saddam? You are a terrorist no doubt and I hope the CIA will find you. *PERSONAL INSULT REMOVED PER TERMS OF USE. CONTINUING TO ENGAGE IN PERSONAL ATTACKS MAY RESULT IN BEING BANNED FROM THIS BOARD* I hope the US invades your little hell hole of a country next.

Oh, I never said that guy was a Muslim. Yo, I don't even care. However, what this Zawahari does, is what you had coming to you. You can't just invade a nation without reactions. Actually I'm surprised how merciful these Iraqis really are.
