Something is Rotten in Iraq and the Pentagon
by Dave Lindorff | Oct 15 2007


Isn't it odd that in the air attack that the US military claims killed 19 high-ranking leaders of Al Qaeda in Mesopotamia and 15 civilians, all the slain Al Qaeda members were men and all the men were Al Qaeda, while all the civilians were women (6) and children (9)?

Think about this a minute.

This means that no women were Al Qaeda--and yet we know that women also fight, and also blow themselves up as suicide bombers. Yet these women were all civilians. The children, of course, were children.

And we're to believe that there were no men who were innocent bystanders? All those adult males who were killed were "bad guys."

Yet there were innocent bystanders: the women and the children. Somehow, any innocent bystanding men managed to duck out of the way, or the bullets and bomb fragments (and I'm sure they were fragmentation bombs that were used, as well as a withering spray of machine-gun fire) that hit all those poor women and kids, just somehow (magically?) missed the men.

Pretty amazing huh?

Except that it's an absurd claim that should insult our intelligence.

2. Everything that comes out of this administration is an insult to

our intelligence. Now, I'm not saying that it's an insult to a bush**/cheney supporters intelligence because their I.Q. factor is way below sea level. But any normal individual knows they're lying their asses off.

3. The thing that is rotten in Iraq and the Pentagon, is a three letter word called, war. n/t
