U.S. offers $200,000 for tips on missing troops
POSTED: 1:58 p.m. EDT, May 16, 2007
Story Highlights
‧ NEW: Thousands of leaflets dropped in Iraq to advertise $200,000 reward
‧ NEW: Military commander says 2 arrestees have acknowledged roles in attack
‧ 11 arrests made during search, four of which are high-value targets
‧ Three soldiers killed in attack identified; another burned too badly to
identify
BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- The U.S. military is offering a $200,000 reward for
any information about the location of three missing American soldiers, or the
identity of their kidnappers, a senior U.S. military official at the Pentagon
told CNN's Barbara Starr.
The military also is dropping approximately 150,000 leaflets from helicopters
in the region south of Baghdad where the soldiers went missing after an
ambush Saturday.
The pamphlets urge Iraqis to call a tip line with any information and inform
them of the reward money, the official said.
Four U.S. soldiers and an Iraqi soldier were killed in the early Saturday
attack outside Mahmoudiya, south of Baghdad.
The U.S. military has sifted through more than 140 tips that have led to
dozens of "deliberate operations" in its massive search for three missing
American soldiers, Maj. Gen. William Caldwell said Wednesday.
The military spokesman said one U.S. soldier has been wounded in the search,
launched after the soldiers disappeared Saturday morning following an ambush
south of Baghdad.
Caldwell said 37 specific operations have been launched "going after targets,
trying to find our missing soldiers."
Thousands of U.S. and Iraqi forces are taking part in the search and have
questioned more than 600 people. Of those, 11 have been detained, he said.
The commander for the 4th Battalion told CNN's Arwa Damon that two of those
in U.S. military custody have admitted to being involved in the attack. They
do not appear to be al Qaeda members, the commander said. They told
interrogators they were paid by a middle man to take part in the attack.
Caldwell said the area south of Baghdad has been divided into 35 zones of
which 32 have been searched.
"But those operations are ongoing and are by no means complete," Caldwell
added.
He said evidence from the scene of the ambush indicates "there was a
firefight [but] we don't know the exact condition of our three missing men."
"We still presume the men are alive," he said. "We have no indications to
reflect otherwise at this time."
The slain and missing U.S. soldiers were based at Fort Drum in New York, and
all seven have been identified as members of the 4th Battalion, 31st Infantry
Regiment of the 10th Mountain Division's Second Brigade Combat Team. All of
the soldiers are male.
The families of the seven have been notified that their kin were involved in
the incident.
Soldiers identified
So far, three families have been notified that their relatives were killed in
action.
The three slain man are Pfc. Christopher E. Murphy, 21, of Gladys, Virginia;
Pfc. Daniel W. Courneya, 19, of Vermontville, Michigan.; and Sgt. 1st Class
James D. Connell Jr., 40, of Lake City, Tennessee. The number of U.S.
military personnel killed in Iraq now stands at 3,401.
Four others -- three missing and one of the dead -- remain listed as "duty
status whereabouts unknown." The military can't yet sort out precisely who is
missing because one of the four bodies is so badly burned that it can't be
immediately identified.
The Department of Defense identified the four as Sgt. Anthony J. Schober, 23,
of Reno, Nevada; Spc. Alex R. Jimenez, 25, of Lawrence, Massachusetts; Pfc.
Joseph J. Anzack Jr., 20, of Torrance, California; and Pvt. Byron W. Fouty,
19, of Waterford, Michigan.
The military was performing a DNA test to determine the identity of the
fourth body and hopes to have the testing completed by midday Wednesday.
A senior U.S. military official said officers believe that the kidnapping was
a "planned snatch" because of the manner in which it was carried out and that
10 or more insurgents had to be involved to make the ambush work.
The kidnapping was part of a "complex attack," meaning the attackers used
many different weapons such as firearms and grenades, but the source wouldn't
be specific on the kinds of weapons used.
The official said the attackers targeted a "stationary observation post," and
the military said the group attacked was part of a larger operation searching
for the bombers.
Caldwell said the patrol was "static throughout the night with concertina
wire somewhat around their position."
They were also part of a "larger element," with the next element of that
force posted some 500 meters away, Caldwell said.
The 4th battalion commander told CNN's Damon that the second position heard
two explosions and tried to establish radio contact but were not able to.
They contacted another battle position to the south and told them to have a
patrol ready to send out, the commander said.
An unmanned aerial vehicle was dispatched and spotted two burning humvees.
The two units headed to the area and both encountered roadside bombs, the
commander said. One unit had to dismount to get around a roadside bomb and,
at that point, saw the burning humvees, he said.
The commander said the units responded within 30 minutes, not an hour as
Caldwell has previously said.
The patrol that was ambushed was in the fifth of a six-hour shift, the
commander said.
Caldwell said the division headquarters is "looking very carefully at the
whole tactical situation to see if there's something they need to do better."
"The first focus is finding our soldiers ... but then they will be looking
very closely at the tactics involved," Caldwell said.
The Islamic State of Iraq -- a Sunni insurgent coalition that includes al
Qaeda in Iraq -- issued a statement Monday saying it is holding the troops
and is warning the U.S. military to call off its search.
CNN cannot independently verify the claim, which was posted on Islamist Web
sites.
While the insurgent group offered no proof that it is holding the soldiers,
Caldwell said Monday that the military believes al Qaeda in Iraq or an
affiliated group is responsible for their abduction.
"This assessment is based on highly credible intelligence information,"
Caldwell said.
Raid sparks clashes
Fighting between Iraqi security forces and Mehdi Army fighters entered a
second day in the southern Iraqi city of Nasiriya on Wednesday, sparked by an
Iraqi military raid on a political office of radical Shiite cleric Muqtada
al-Sadr, Iraqi officials told CNN.
At least nine people have been killed and dozens wounded in the clashes,
which began Tuesday night and stopped Wednesday around 3 p.m. (7 a.m. ET),
police and hospital officials said.
Two mortar rounds targeted the mayor's headquarters in Nasiriya, an official
with the mayor's office told CNN.
A local al-Sadr political leader told CNN that an Iraqi "Quick Intervention
Force" raided al-Sadr's political office in Nasiriya Tuesday night and
arrested two members. A short time later, clashes erupted and Iraqi police
fired rocket-propelled grenades at the office building.
That attack killed five people and injured 14 inside the office, which was
then occupied by the forces, Abd al-Mahdi al-Motairi said.
The Iraqi forces refused to withdraw from the office, despite a plea from
Nasiriya's mayor and police chief, the aide said.
Al-Sadr's Mehdi Army militia is blamed for much of the sectarian violence in
Iraq.
Nasiriya is located about 175 miles (280 kilometers) southeast of Baghdad.
North of Baghdad, a car bomb detonated at an outdoor market Tuesday evening,
killing 29 people and wounding 47 others, a hospital official said Wednesday.
The attack happened in Abu Saydah, a predominantly Shiite town about 20 miles
(30 kilometers) north of Baquba around 7:30 p.m. Tuesday.
Other developments
‧ A barrage of 10 mortars struck Baghdad's heavily fortified Green Zone on
Wednesday, killing two Iraqis and wounding 10 people -- most of them Iraqis
-- a U.S. Embassy spokesman told CNN. It is the second day in a row that an
indirect attack on the Green Zone has resulted in casualties.
‧ A group of Republican senators uneasy about the level of progress in Iraq
are putting forward an amendment that would force President Bush to tell
Congress how he intends to revise U.S. strategy if the Iraqi government fails
to meet certain benchmarks for progress.

Action urgent on EU, says Sarkozy
Nicolas Sarkozy has called for urgent action to get the European Union out of
its constitutional "paralysis".
He made the call as he met German Chancellor Angela Merkel for talks in
Berlin, capping a whirlwind first day as the new president of France.
Germany holds the presidency of the European Union and G8 group of
industrialised nations.
Earlier, Mr Sarkozy took office at the Elysee Palace and called for change
and national unity in his inaugural speech.
'Miracle' ties
Mr Sarkozy was greeted with full military honours on arrival in Berlin.
At a joint press conference with Mrs Merkel, Mr Sarkozy called the historic
relationship between the two nations "sacred" and said they must "get down to
work immediately" to resolve the constitutional crisis in the EU.
"The first matter of urgency is to get the European Union out of its current
paralysis," Mr Sarkozy said.
Mrs Merkel thanked Mr Sarkozy for visiting Germany on the first day of his
presidency and said the meeting was a sign that both sides wanted to
intensify the friendship between the two nations.
"I think it is a sign of the great German-French friendship which we can
build on, which we want to continue and which is - if you look at the history
of the last decades - a miracle, a miracle that has brought together the
people of our countries," she said.
The two leaders are expected discuss Mr Sarkozy's plans to relaunch the EU
constitution over dinner on Wednesday.
French and Dutch voters rejected the constitutional treaty in 2005, leaving
the 27-nation body in limbo, and Mrs Merkel is keen to hammer out a deal to
modernise EU structures before next month's summit in Brussels.
Mr Sarkozy has said he wants a simplified treaty to be ratified as quickly as
possible by the French parliament.
He also called for more co-operation on industrial issues, particularly over
the troubled European aerospace company EADS, which owns aircraft maker
Airbus. France and Germany share management of the company.
The BBC's Tristana Moore in Berlin says the two leaders have met many times
before and are said to have a good personal relationship.
Flame rekindled
Earlier in Paris, he said his first decision was to make all schools read a
letter home written by a World War II resistance fighter.
He said he could never read Guy Moquet's letter - written before his
execution in 1941 - without being "profoundly moved", and said it was
essential children knew the horror and barbarism of war.
Mr Sarkozy, 52, defeated Socialist candidate Segolene Royal in the 6 May
run-off.
In his inaugural address, he said France needed "to take risks and follow
initiatives".
The country also needed to "rehabilitate the values of work, effort, merit
and respect" and defeat intolerance, he said.
Mandate
Mr Sarkozy, formerly interior minister, has a reputation as a law and order
hardliner. He made the fight against illegal immigration and crime prominent
in his election campaign, along with the issue of national identity.
He won with 53% of the vote and enjoys a powerful mandate after a massive
turnout by the electorate.
Mr Sarkozy is not expected to name his prime minister until Thursday. An
announcement on his cabinet is expected on Friday morning, government sources
told AFP news agency.
A former minister, Francois Fillon, is expected be made prime minister.
Reports also suggest that a senior member of the defeated Socialist party,
Bernard Kouchner, is a leading candidate for the post of foreign minister.
GUY MOQUET
‧ Born in France, 1924
‧ Communist fighter during World War II
‧ Detained with other Communists in Chateaubriant
‧ Executed on 22 October 1941 as revenge for the killing of German
Feldkommandant Karl Hotz by members of the French Resistance
‧ Wrote a letter to his parents before his execution
