#2 An Al-Jazeera cameraman . . .

If the lead sentence began, "A Swedish grandmother of four . . ." would it have been more misleading?

#3 I have a staunch man, a Hungarian, who oft not only insults Islam, but insults Islams Mama. He is very crude, albeit handy, and damn well armed.

A sample:
Mohammed mama so fat camel is ride her

#4 What's the recidivism rate among these gitmo releases? Has there been any formal count of how many are rearrested or die in new attacks?

#11 I like the idea of a rumor that this al-Jazeera cameraman has been "programmed" by the CIA, and has a secret "message" for top al-Qaeda leaders.

#12 Hilarious. This guy was grimacing in pain as they carried him off the plane on a stretcher in front of the AP cameras. Later in the same segment he was hale and hearty, standing and, like Goebbels, shaking his finger as he criticized his treatment at Gitmo.

#13 Some footage of the inmates praying and such would be nice to release about now along with the quotes from others that have been released about how well they were treated and the bits from Al Queda about how to lie about imprisonment.

We have not been properly fighting the information war. Not at all.
