Exactly. Just like "Mission Accomplished". The mission was to drive up oil prices from $18/barrel to $72/barrel, regardless of how many people (US soldiers and Iraqi civilians) get killed and maimed in the process. And it has been accomplished.

Kareem, who commands the Iraqi Security Forces in Diyala province, said the bombings isolated the terrorists who had infiltrated Sherween. The town's residents fought alongside the Iraqi forces during the raid, helping them kill and capture the terrorists, a U.S. military news release said.

"This operation was very important for the people of Sherween because we were able to find a very big hideout for the terrorists," Kareem said of Operation Saber Guardian, which began early Tuesday. "It was a very big surprise for the terrorists and the people that support them."
