Since when is Totten a credible source?
He is about as far left as you can get, from what I know of what he has written.
Totten is far left ?
He is one of the best journalists working in Iraq and the ME in general. He is as pro-American and pro-victory as Michael Yon (and he got that point of view through being on the spot), and just as devoted to reporting the facts on the ground.
I have been following his Middle-Eastern reporting for years.
