91. Post #81 didn't make any more sense than your last attempt.

No change there then. The world usually publishes news before the
US does (unless it is US Admin press releases or a missing dog in
Bumfuck, Nebraska that is headlining the TV news).

Can you please run that by me again?

What I think you were saying is that the US Admin's final tortuous
admission that they performed war crimes on Fallujah civilians is
somehow going to prevent people coming to defend the Syrians when
the next battle starts. (i.e., the 5% of foreign fighters coming to
supplement the 95% native resistance).

Is that what you meant? If so, how does deliberately murdering
civilians dissuade horrified neighbours from joining forces against
the rogue nation? (If not, could you please try again?)

Or were you just trying to blur the lines between Iraqi resistance
and all of those "foreign fighters" that BushCo seem to believe have
been involved? Maybe the "foreign fighters" were travelling in the
battalions of Iraqi tanks massing on the Saudi border? Or were they
too busy throwing babies out of incubators?

> Suprise, surprise, surprise Sgt. Carter. The timing is impeccible.

Sorry, cultural mismatch ... is that a US TV programme or something?
