The Iraqi Resistance Packs it in - It's Official!! According to USA Today , that bastion of serious news coverage, attacks on US troops are down 22% since Saddam Hussein's capture. What we are supposed to infer from this is that the Iraqi resistance was a concoction of Saddam Hussein and the Ba'athists. They don't represent the Iraqi people, (even when polls show they do), and they obviously don't have the usual rights that occupied citizens have to resist their occupiers...

Sorry, but I don't trust on U.S. mainstream

"According to USA Today"?
Corporative media joined White House's war of propaganda towards Iraq. Their information is not trustable.

Well judging by the amount of intelligence cock ups they make plus the crap booking, re Enron, Wolrd com parmalat you can just imagine where they got 22% from, probably some sort of masonic code.
I wonder if they really bother to keep count of how much cannon fodder they are losing, I'm sure they couldn't give toss about how many they lose .
Although passing the five hundred mark might be a bit iffy and perhaps they might have to dust down the old Bin Laden Video collection or perhaps wheel him out for another 911 publicity stunt .
Bush and Blair are both on the ropes although , so was Thatcher before the falklands war, Berlusconi is busy with his domestic problems avoiding going to prison by changing a few more laws and still after making a total twat of himself during his six month reign as top europratt.
So don't be surprised if Al Queda (used to be called the 7th cavalry) doesn't come up with another little beauty to save the day , just when it looks like their number is up .. I reckon that Europeans might need a bit more convincing on this war against freedom .... and GW knows how to do just that ..
