The $132 Billion Defeat
Jews' Jaws One
Shark America Nine
Number of Earthquakes in the Past Seven Days: 160
The news reported today that 250-300 Iraqi resistance fighters were killed by US-backed Iraqi forces in a pitched battle in open terrain outside the city of Nagaf; and that the resistance had amassed a force of some 600 to attack religious pilgrims in that city.
This may be true; but I don not believe it. It is too convenient at a time when George W. Bush sorely needs an Iraqi army victory; and it implies the resistance forces have changed from a winning tactic to a losing tactic.
The Americans control the air, Dear Reader; it is not likely 600 resistance fighters are going to mass in treeless country, that would have been too dangerous even for the Viet Cong in thick Vietnam jungle.
I may be wrong, but I think this is a phony story.
