A large group of approximately 300 Iraqi police officers suddenly appeared at the gate of the P.B. base...
When they discovered that all security at the base entrance had withdrawn, these officers pushed open the gate of the base, drove inside, then spread out, surrounding the command building where Joe Ga was located.
The Kurdish Auxiliary Forces set up positions at the front of the building, confronting the police, but the numbers were too overwhelming...
Joe Ga saw a middle-aged Iraqi officer with graying beard raise his hands to indicate he was unarmed, shouting loudly as he approached the building...
"We mean no harm. We are here to assist in defending the base and to protect you..."
Joe Ga hung up the call to the Iraqi Prime Minister, then shook his head slightly and said, "Why do some people always think they are saving the country?
