Quote of the Day by SoldiersGirl

[A Vast RightWing Conspirator]

This is a classic example of how propaganda works. After 18 hours of screaming talking heads 'analyzing' the 'huge'
WMD factory or warehouse (not clear what) found in Iraq, only a whisper when the story is officially and authoritatively dismissed as untrue by the military and the gov't.

The end result: lots of people will 'know for a fact' that WMD have been found in Iraq.

[camle]

ever notice how the US seems to be the only country that follows the geneva convention? The north viets didn't, the north koreans didn't, the japanese didn't. Maybe the germasn did somewhat...

juts seems like the geneva convention exists to constrain the US. doesn't seem to bother anybody else.

[Question_Assumptions]

Why aren't there more M-1s? I would think they'd be ideal in this milieu. Would we have more if the Turks hadn't prohibited our passage through their country or are more M-1s deployed elsewhere in Iraq? Surely, we have more than 70 that we could bring to bear.

[TADSLOS]

Great quote, John.
