You mean Faux Skews?

I don't know what to believe anymore.

How many times are they going to tell us "Saddam has lost countrol of his country" (today I heard Saddam has lost control of Southern Iraq)

Saddam HAS lost control of his country. He doesn't govern there. All he has are thugs (a.k.a. "troops") who attack disguised as civilians.

It's just a bunch of insurgents now, fighting behind the lines. Saddam isn't even anywhere to be seen.

I realize that we haven't seen "real war" in some few generations, but let's TRY to see the reality here.

It took the Nazis PLUS the Soviets about five weeks to "conquer" tiny, near-defenseless Poland.
