NBC's Richard Engle: Insurgents waiting to see if Dems will HELP THEM WIN. (VIDEO)
Edited on Tue Mar-06-07 12:50 AM by Mugsy
What the F--- did he just say???

On Monday nights' NBC Nightly News, corespondent Richard Engle told anchor Brian Williams (both in Baghdad) that the reason insurgents appear to be laying low is because they are "waiting to see if political pressure in the U.S. {read: Democrats opposing the surge} will HELP THEM WIN."

YouTube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8CAX8xRabg

Uh, excuse me, but when exactly did Engle interview all these insurgents to see how closely they were monitoring news out of the U.S. and regarded a change in strategy as "a win"???

:mad:

1. It has nothing to do with the Democrats. The insurgents meld back into the populace
when there's a large government/USA presence in their area. At about the same time, the insurgents in ANOTHER area where there are less troops start acting up.

And so goes the game of pseudo waltz of Whack-A-Mole within an occupied nation. ;)

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

2. You mean Usama doesn't have cable in his cave?
His fucking CAVE.

Remember, the stupid ignorant fucks at CU and FR still think these guys actually live in caves. Pass the Kool-Aid.

3. I don't see why
the corporate media bash the Dems so much on Iraq. They aren't going to cut funding, therefore the war is not going to end. At this point the war is likely to be transferred to whoever wins in 08.

6. Williams was whoring for the Admin, as well.
He said things were BETTER since the last time he was in Baghdad. Tell that to the people who were just blown up in another suicide attack.:grr:

We lost SIX more soldiers today. Guess the "insurgents" aren't on the Dems timetable. Fucking asshole traitors...
