#1 Bullshit, Murat.

#2 The spin on this is simply unbelievable. Contrary to what the Daily Error is reporting, Operation Iron Hammer is proceeding apace, and the bad guys are getting hammered.

#3 "A CIA report warned that Iraqis increasingly believe the allies can be defeated by guerrillas, believed to number up to 50,000. A source said: "It says we are going to lose the situation unless there is a rapid and dramatic change of course"

the first sentence seems to be an accurate report of what the CIA has said. The number of 50,000 though has not been mentioned in articles on the CIA report Ive seen. And the last sentence is from a totally different source, apparently, not connected with the report.

an important report, but this is spin.

#6 Murat I applaud your ability to look over ALL other indicators and find the one that supports your logic. The insurgents may have numbered 50k at one time. That is if you include all the ex-Iraqi types that live in the Sunni triangle. That number has probably dropped since a lot of them were killed during the invasion and will be killed over the next few weeks. Unless we (U.S.) get stupid and elect Sharpton, you can expect the U.S. to continue to garrison Iraq for at least the next four years. Only Islamists and French run from battle, NOT the U.S.

#8 Thats the left for you, always loud in their criticism of freedom and liberty, always quiet in their protest of tyranny. The left cant wait to lose in Iraq. It will prove their point that there is nothing worth fighting and dying for, and thus their shame of standing aside and doing nothing while millions die in search of the very freedoms the left enjoy, will be assuaged.

The left is like a domestic violence victim who blames herself for the attack, and wont press changes.
