#1 "By Jonathan Steele in Damascus" is all you need to know, folks. Steele is Etonian marxist with a long history of anti-US propaganda and pro-communist sympathies during the Cold War. He's found some clown in Damascus who claims to speak for the Sunni insurgents and takes a line acceptable to the anti-US left.

#2 Regardless of Steele's bona fides or lack thereof, I have no doubt that what he reports is true. If there is one consistent aspect of Islam and, in particular, the current crop of jihadi's, it's an inability to learn from experience.
