Noam!!
Things slow at MIT? Welcome to FR.
Since this is your only post on your first day, I guess I'll at least reply to recognize your presence.
I don't have time to refute your Chomsy-esque diatribe point by point, but if you would like to take it point by point I'll be happy to engage.
Just to correct a few minor details: it is shah not shaw and the operation was actually called TPAJAX.
To: bothsides
Of the 40-plus replies to this rather long article, this one is the only one which gives at least a little credit where it is due (and some of the things discussed in the article seem more and more accurate as events unfold, esp. regarding the aftermath and troop strengths/security).
Given recent events, I'd be interested in hearing if this article still rings 100% untrue for all who read it here.
