Clusterfuck is to tame a word.

1. Didn't hear about that.

I don't watch the news much, but from what I saw all they were talking about was the evacuation of the capitol/white house.

79 Die in Attacks as Rebels in Iraq Intensify Fight

Published: May 12, 2005
BAGHDAD, Iraq, May 11 - Insurgents struck in northern and central Iraq on Wednesday in a series of bloody attacks that killed at least 79 people in three cities, and wounded at least 120 others, according to figures provided by the police and hospital officials. The attacks were a further intensification of a two-week-old onslaught by Sunni Arab insurgents who appear intent on destabilizing Iraq's newly formed Shiite-majority government.

6. I guarantee this; the insurgents killing Iraqis are NOT "Sunni Arabs";

the insurgency is NOT "mostly all Sunni Arabs intent on destabilizing the Shia-dominated government"; the SHIA and the KURDS are right in there WITh the Sunnis as NATIONALISTS targetting troops and collaborators, but they are NOT the ones doing suicide bombings of Iraqi civilians.

And sooner or later, that TRUTH will come out, just as all the other TRUTHS have managed to float to the top through the thick murky bullshit.

Guaranteed.

It was "24 minutes of terror" according to CNN! Don't mention 79 dead in Iraq. :eyes:

A tragedy...

5. "Progress".

A bunch of us have been saying, violance is INCREASING and has been INCREASING since late 2004.

A bunch of us have been saying the "elections" in Iraq saw the HIGHEST level of violance in Iraq to date.

But the "MSM" seem to prefer stenographting bush rather than reporting the facts.

Even the GAO has reported on the INCREASED and INCREASING violance, but the "MSM" just ignores the GAO, too;

Too many Americans don't want to know the truth. They can't take the truth.
