    Georgia National Guard to bring baby Noor to U.S. for surgery.

    BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- When troops from the Georgia National Guard raided a Baghdad home in early December, they had no idea that their mission in Iraq would take a different turn.

And we\'re very, very pissed off.\" - Tyler (Brad Pitt) Fight Club.
