1. It is very interesing to see (or not see) the almost non-existent coverage of this...

...in the "liberal" media here...

I saw the headline first thing this morning on the BBC website, and yet MSRNC had it buried half-way down their page and it had NO mention of the big numbers of civvies killed, NOR the fact that US troops tried (and apparently succeeded) to destroy evidence...

This is NOT a good situation....

On edit...as of 10.04 CST there is no mention whatsoever now of this incident on MSRNC.com...CNN.com no mention, but LOTS of coverage of pot-smoking children and a mutilated corpse in Michigan.. :eyes:
