More blah, blah, blah....this time with the Prime Minister of Iraq. Apparently, the new line of attack on the insurgents from the White House is that that they know how to manipulate the media via the Washington Post:
They try to kill and they do kill innocent Iraqi people, women and children because they know that the carnage that they reap will be on TV and they know that it bothers people to see death.But, the real news about Iraq can be found in one story from MSNBC:
Many more Americans soldiers are dying:
A suicide car bomber slammed into a 7-ton U.S. military vehicle in Fallujah, killing five Marines and a Navy sailor, Marine Corps sources told NBC News, adding that at least three of the dead were female Marines and that 13 others were wounded.Devastation continues for Iraqis:
And in a devastating escalation in insurgent attacks in the capital, a string of car bombings carried over into Thursday morning with four more blasts that killed at least 15 people and wounded 28.The number of Insurgents is increasing:
Overall, Thursday’s violence across Iraq left at least 20 civilians killed and 37 wounded.
Continued bloodshed underscores comments from the top American commander in the Persian Gulf, who told lawmakers on Thursday that the Iraqi insurgency has not grown weaker over the past six months.It's like Bush and Cheney have confused "last throes" with the grand finale of fireworks.
“I believe there are more foreign fighters coming into Iraq than there were six months ago,” Gen. John Abizaid said during a contentious Senate Armed Services Committee hearing. “There’s a lot of work to be done against the insurgency.”
