Michael Yon's must be seen to be believed:

The few remaining serious troublemakers are being hacked off and mulched in these incessant operations, which gives the enemy no rest (in the old days, when they were murdering Iraqis and Americans by the thousands, AQI used Tal Afar for training and R&R). These types of terrorists used to lay up with prostitutes in downtown Tal Afar, which isn't so uncommon - for years brothels have been an excellent source of information against al Qaeda from Mosul to Baghdad. The al Qaeda terrorists don't save themselves for the seventy two virgins promised to suicide bombers. They love drugs, prostitutes, and the power of the gun.

You'll have to click through for the photographic evidence. Regulars here will note that I do not hesitate to post pictures of scantily clad women. I do this for you, the reader. But jihadist hookers...I have to draw the line somewhere, even if Debbie Stabenow's husband doesn't.

Also, Yon's book, Moment of Truth is set for release at the end of the month. I was able to extort a free copy in exchange for the plug, but somebody has to finance his operation, so buy a copy. The guy is a national treasure, pony up and do your part.
