   ....was planning on [1]destroying a girl's school in Tarmiyah.

     Coalition forces thwarted an al-Qaeda plot to destroy the Huda
     Girlsâ School in Tarmiyah, said U.S. military officials Thursday.
     As reconstruction efforts for school systems in Iraq continued,
     al-Qaeda extremists targeted the Huda Girlsâ School in Tarmiyah
     twice in the past month using improvised explosive devices and
     building explosives into the school house.
     "[It was a] sophisticated and premeditated attempt to inflict
     massive casualties on our most innocent victims," said U.S. Army
     Maj. Gen. William B. Caldwell IV, the Multi-National Force-Iraq
     spokesman.
     Recently, the al-Qaeda plan to destroy the school was disrupted
     when Soldiers of 2nd âStallionâ Battalion, 8th Cavalry Regiment,
     1st Brigade Combat Team discovered a detonating wire across the
     street from the school leading to five artillery shells, two large
     explosive-filled propane tanks and numerous projectiles embedded in
     and around the construction of the school house.

   Terrorists blow girls up. American soldiers stop them from blowing
   girls up. And the feminists?
   Silence.
