Pro Military, Pro Coalition, Pro de-Baathification News!

A 17-page letter seized in the capture of an al Qaeda courier last month reveals an enemy "terrified" that Iraq is on the road to freedom and self-government, a coalition military official said at a Baghdad news conference today.

Private Mail to be added to or removed from the GNFI (or Pro-Coalition) ping list.

Same could be said for the democrats and their fellow travelers in the media.

[SAMWolf]

Looks like al Qaeda and the Liberals have something in common.

[Ronly Bonly Jones]

Can someone post a link to the NYTimes article on this letter? Or at least the Freeplink?

[woodyinscc]

If the mainstream press, really had the countries best interest at heart, this story would be front page above the fold. They are at the very least, pathetic.!!

Same could be said for the democrats and their fellow travelers in the media.

Once the full text of the letter is published, it would be hilarious to change a few words to make it sound as if it was written by Terry McAuliffe about the DNC. Probably wouldn't take that much re-work...

Great news from a really bad man:

"He is terrified of the coalition's will," Kimmitt said today. "He's terrified of the coalition's military capabilities. He is terrified of the fact that we are building (an) Iraqi security structure that prevents him from establishing a base inside this country. And he is terrified of a country that, rather than bowing to terrorism, is moving toward democracy."

THIS MEMO was the majority of this presser.

Coalition Provisional Authority Briefing from Iraq Monday, February 9, 2004

Q: Kevin Flower with CNN. So back to this letter. Do you think that it is -- is it your belief that Zarqawi is the author of this letter? And who is the letter to? Was it written to al Qaeda operatives outside the country? And finally, can we see the letter? Can we -- can you make portions of it available to us?

Kimmitt: Yeah, we are persuaded that Zarqawi was the author of this letter. It is our understanding that this letter was being taken by a courier outside this country for delivery abroad. And it is our intent and our -- certainly our hope that -- in the near future that this letter can be declassified.

Let me just give you sort of a picture of the 17 pages of it on the screen here, not very -- it's not very clear to you. But we are hoping in the near future to be able to release this, because this document does in fact demonstrate what we have been assessing all along, and the impact of this letter on our operations and as we take operations forward is very, very dramatic.

And he's praying 5 times a day to Allah that John Kerry wins in November.

"And he's praying 5 times a day to Allah that John Kerry wins in November."

You got that right. If I had my way, I would divide the presidency into two parts, foreign and domestic, and let GW do foreign, and get someone like Guiliani for domestic.
Half of me wants to vote for Bush, the other half, the side my wallet is on, doesn't.

I would love to see millions of "Who would Osama Vote For" over the face of the frenchman posters up between now and November. I gotta buy a lotto ticket

There. That about clears it up!

"Looks like al Qaeda and the Liberals have something in common."

The Mass Murdering Islamofascist al Qaeda thugs have a lot more in common our Lunatic Libs, than we have with the Lunatic Libs.

Just look at Benedict John F' Kerry and his anti American Stances since he got back Nam and his senate voting record.

[F16Fighter]

And Rather, Brokaw, and Jennings will COMPLETELY ignore this news in much the same way they will ignore news of the Second Coming.
