"Ware also provided an interesting insight into how the battle in Iraq has shifted from Anbar province and Baghdad, areas where the U.S. has built up troop levels, to Diyala province, "

Tell that to the families of the three killed in Anbar yesterday.

Moron moonbats.

Hell, we knew AQ was in Iraq for quite a spell. Seen 'em we did.

When we zapped Afghanistani Taliban they scurried like the little democrats they are.

I'm a Boy Scout leader and when i see this picture of the children, as well as the recent video up at youtube of a Baghdad Troop, I can't help but see SO MUCH HOPE. It's undeniable. That is such untapped strength.

You crack me up too Greg, showing a WAPO think tank? You honestly think THEY, with their vast experience know more than the commanders on the ground?

And you joke about Fox, well now I know where you get "your" opinions from.

Thanks for the laugh, I needed it after spending so much today!!!

BTW, how much do you know about theRAND corporation?

I appears that abd-Hadid al-Iraqi was on intelligence radar before 9/11 according to a post at Hot Air. What do "they" not get about the fact that he's Iraqi and has been involved with al-Qaeda for a very long time?

Everyone knows al-Qaeda trained there, rehabbed there and only God knows what else - just as we know there were WMD in Iraq that the Russians dumped days before we went in - or they are in Syria or Iran or....

Good sources here Spree. Thanks.
