A "new" outbreak of "violence" in Iraq..
Now THERE's a headline for ya..

The latest spate of "captured" terrah-ists accompanied by all the "new" alerts is... P H O N Y - B A L O N E Y ..

Let's think on this.. The terraists were all "caught" in Pakistan. Pakistan is our "best-est-ever-in-the-whole-world pal"..(as long as we keep dumping piles of cash on them..and stay quiet about their rogue nuke scientist)..

It's not a big stretch to imagine these "newly caught" terraists all cooling their heels in some godforsaken jail in Pakistan, just waiting to be turned over as needed. Like medicine, they are "dosed" out, as the need for "good news" warrants..

No one will EVER hear "their side" of the story...they will be kept in solitary, probably without access to lawyers, so they are usable by our government as a tool, but there is little likelihood that the "official story" will ever be disputed...especially BEFORE the election.

The news from Iraq is B A D ..It never got better..it just got "hushed". The whole terraist roundup, is just another phase in the re-election campaign.. "See how hard we are working to make you safe?"..

The media will fall all over themselves to report the terra-terra-terra stuff, and any questions about the relevance of the information is treated as the latest outbreak of traitors against the US.

The information is bogus.. it is intended to draw attention away from the REAL stories (and it does)..and yet when people complain about that tactic, THEY become the new story.. Traitors..unpatriotic..cynical..Bush-bashing.
